The European CMA celebrates 20 years of country music charts in Europe!!!
May 17th, 1989 saw the very first ECMA Top-20 Country Music Pan-European Radio Chart. Since then, we have produced hundreds of them. We are very pleased, because it has been done with the help of all the reporter stations in DJs. This goes to the loving memory of DJ Harry E. Fenton from the UK, who was the very first to report for that 1st chart.
Thanks to you all
