For those who care about methodology, this is a revised list representing choices made in order to tailor the list to fit comfortably within a 60 minute radio broadcast. Six numbers were eliminated - they were the fluffiest of the lot, by Paul Whiteman and comparable dance bands. Some of the sequential ordering was also modified.
