Notes

The American Music Library series celebrates US hit singles big and small. Concentrating on only those singles that did not chart in the UK, it avoids track duplication with compilations like the British Hit Parade series. The Hits of 1960 features:
- All 30 US Pop Top 10 Hits from that year that didn't make the UK charts.
- All 8 additional US Country and R&B chart-toppers that evaded the US Pop Top 19
- An additional 52 hits from the US Pop Hot 100 that didn't make the UK charts.
