Christmas number one albums.
1963: The Beatles - With The Beatles 1964: The Beatles - Beatles For Sale 1965: The Beatles - Rubber Soul 1967: The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band 1968: The Beatles - The Beatles 1969: The Beatles - Abbey Road 2000: The Beatles - 1 Pretty amazing! (It should have been Revolver in 1966 instead of SOM). These are ALL my favourites! |

The Immaculate Collection is easily the best, followed by Dido and Shania Twain, the rest not so much...

QUOTE(daniellovesmusic @ Dec 18 2020, 11:53 AM)  1994: Beautiful South - Carry On up The Charts This still stands out as being the most unlikely christmas #1. I bet they couldn't believe how well it sold for them, especially as their most recent few albums had only just scraped gold I think. |

Garyfeld -- 'The Singles - The First Ten Years' by ABBA, was No.1, (1 Week), on W/E 27th November 1982. It was then replaced at No.1 by 'The John Lennon Collection', which was that Year's Christmas No.1 Album. John Lennon's Album was at No.1 for 6 Weeks - W/E 4th December 1982 to W/E 8th January 1983.
