USA

The UK Pickwick label, which was behind the Top of the Pops LPs, was part of a bigger company owned by the US concern, Pickwick International. Despite Top of the Pops spanning the globe, none of the albums (so far as we know) were issued in America.

Pickwick International did attempt a series along similar lines in the US, under the title Super Hits. Although these are largely separate, they do cross over with Top of the Pops with the occasional shared track or cover photo.

Super Hits was credited to an act called Kings Road. Similarly, there were other US albums issued where the studio group was called Mirror Image. At least one of their albums is a Top of the Pops compilation.

We only detail here albums which we know have Top of the Pops connections. The rest are given just a general overview, pending more research.
