June 19, 201213 yr The Legend Album, (Bob Marley & The Wailers), re-enters the Top 20, for the first time since W/E 16th August 2003, when it was at No.17. Despite 405 Chart Weeks, (375 Top 75), it is only its 40th Week in the Top 20. NOTE - Remember, from W/E 8th August 1981 to W/E 14th January 1989, the entire Top 100 of the Album Chart was used for UK Chart Statistics. Here are how many Weeks 4 of these 5 Albums gain, from that period. (Gold by ABBA is the only one of the 5 to have its Chart weeks soley from the Top 75. It was released in September 1992 - over 3.5 Years after the Top 100 stopped being used for Chart Statistics). The Weeks they gained from No.76 to No.100 Positions:, 1) Rumours - Fleetwood Mac - 112 Weeks 2) Greatest Hits - Queen - 62 Weeks 3) Bat Out Of Hell - Meat Loaf - 34 Weeks 4) Legend - Bob Marley & The Wailers - 30 Weeks THE TOP 5 UK ALBUMS WITH THE MOST CHART WEEKS (Various Statistics) 1) Rumours - Fleetwood Mac - 493 Weeks - (526 - Top 100)...(381 - Top 75)...(106 - Top 40)...(74 - Top 20)...(41 - Top 10)...(15 - Top 5)...(1 Week at No.1) 2) Greatest Hits - Queen - 476 Weeks - (635 - Top 100)...(414 - Top 75)...(152 - Top 40)...(47 - Top 20)...(23 - Top 10)...(13 - Top 5)...(4 Weeks at No.1) 3) Bat Out Of Hell - Meat Loaf - 474 Weeks - (506 - Top 100)...(440 - Top 75)...(244 - Top 40)...(54 - Top 20)...(2 - Top 10)...(0 - Top 5)...(Peaked at No.9) 4) Gold - Greatest Hits - ABBA - 449 Weeks - (649 - Top 100)...(449 - Top 75)...(215 - Top 40)...(100 - Top 20)...(58 - Top 10)...(29 - Top 5)...(8 Weeks at No.1) 5) Legend - Bob Marley & The Wailers - 405 Weeks - (375 - Top 75)...(104 - Top 40)...(40 - Top 20)...(20 - Top 10)...(17 - Top 5)...(12 Weeks at No.1) Edited June 19, 201213 yr by zeus555
