Billboard Top Country Hits: 1960 is a compilation album released by Rhino Records in 1990, featuring 10 hit country music recordings from 1960.

Four of the tracks included on this album reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot C&W Sides chart during 1960. This is largely in part because there were only four songs that topped the chart during the entire year, although one of the tracks — "El Paso" by Marty Robbins, also a chart topper on the Billboard Hot 100 — actually topped the chart in December 1959; on the album's track listing, the song is listed as having a peak date of January 1960. Also included in the track lineup is the year's No. 1 song, "Please Help Me I'm Falling" by Hank Locklin.

The remaining six tracks all peaked in the Top 10.
