""Ready 'n' Steady" is a song by the artist D.A. that appeared on Billboard magazine's Bubbling Under the Hot 100 chart for three weeks in June 1979. The record, along with information about it or the artist, has been notoriously hard to find, leading many collectors to consider it a "phantom record"."
"The record, released on the Rascal label, moved up to 103 on June 23, then up to 102 the following week before dropping off the chart."
"Music historian Joel Whitburn, whose company Record Research Inc. specializes in analyzing the Billboard charts, has published various books containing chart data. He has collected tens of thousands of hit records, including all of the 45s ever to hit the Hot 100 or Bubbling Under charts—all except "Ready 'n' Steady"."
"…Whitburn noted he still has not been able to find "Ready 'n' Steady" and said "I don't think it exists.""
