The Country Tracks Chart was first published on 2 June 1989 to provide a listing of the most popular Country songs being played on Australian radio. The Country Tracks chart today is a Top 30 which is published on this site every Saturday. It is compiled from airplay reports provided by a large group of Country Music broadcasters across Australia.
There is a lot of information about the first 20 years of the Country Tracks chart on the 20 Years page in the Top 30 section of CMR's web site
