Rod Couch began researching and organizing The Top Songs of the Rock Era in 1977 while working at radio station KFXD-AM in Boise, Idaho. The special was first broadcast at KFXD in 1979 when Rod served as music director, and has been updated and published several times since then. In the ensuing years, Rod fine-tuned his work, developing a complex copyrighted mathematical formula and a database that now contains over 13,000 songs to accept fluid data such as sales number, airplay and new releases. The formula helps to rank the songs within the database, and of these, The Top 500 were included in the book The Top 500 Songs of the Rock Era: 1955-2015. Rod lives in Boise with his wife, Lou-Ann.
