Combining the entries of two completely different artists with similarnames... Are there some other notable instances of this odd compromise?
25 Nov 2015
Double Listing - Opus One
#14 & #135 are the same.
You are correct, data fixed, thanks
27 Jun 2015
Double Listing - This Love Of Mine
#143 should be combined with #12 (under duets w/Frank Sinatra).
Data fixed, thanks

#49 - Green Eyes
Even though the Jitterbuzz Your Hit Parade website credits Green Eyes to Tommy Dorsey, this is in error. It should be credited to Jimmy Dorsey (currently #6 in 1941). Per Amazon, Allmusic and several other websites Jimmy Dorsey (not Tommy Dorsey) had the Your Hit Parade hit for Green Eyes. This Chart Entry should be removed from here and credited to Jimmy Dorsey.
Once again we'll follow your suggestion, data fixed, thanks

Double Listing - Imagination
#180 should be combined with #12 (under duets w/Frank Sinatra).
Data fixed, thanks

You have two entries in your spreadsheet: Tommy Dorsey I'll Never Smile Again Tommy Dorsey & Frank Sinatra I'll Never Smile Again
These are the same song

That seems right, we've fixed the data, thanks for the input

# 15 Take My Hand, Precious Lord
This song was written be Rev. Thoamas A. Dorsey - not to be confused with bandleader Tommy Dorsey.
Indeed see the Tommy Dorsey page.
