Noted ''Billboard'' statistician Joel Whitburn has since "adopted" ''Record World'' chart data from the weeks between March 29, 1975 and August 21, 1976 into ''Billboard''s club play history.

With the issue dated August 28, 1976, ''Billboard'' premièred its own national chart ("National Disco Action Top 30") and their data is used from this date forward.
