Hi John, The Guinness World Records website is at http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/, but I've just tried searching for "Ruby Murray" and nothing has come up. I don't know if it takes some time for records to migrate to the website, or whether the site only shows selected records. I'll find out an...

Hello again John, I've now had clarification from Guinness World Records' previous music consultant and he tells me the following: "Elvis’ five [simultaneous Top 20 hits] were in 1957, not 1956. He did it on Oct 18th with ‘Party’ (5th), 'Teddy Bear' (13th), 'All Shook Up' (15th), 'Paralysed' (17) &...
