Billboard Top Rock'n'Roll Hits: 1969 is a compilation album released by Rhino Records in 1989, featuring 10 hit recordings from 1969.

The original album includes six songs that reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including the year's No. 1 song, "Sugar, Sugar" by The Archies. The remaining four tracks each reached the Hot 100's Top 5. A 1993 re-issue replaced three tracks, bringing the number of chart toppers down from six to five.
