Wondering if/how many times this has happened - where an artist has had a #1 album without ever in their career charting on the Top 100 singles chart?

Richard & Adam?

Jack Savoretti has 1 #70 hit out of 29 singles.

Il Divo, Collabro, Journey South, all these kinda acts...

 

also Ward Thomas I think

Rick Wakeman

Going way back,you've also got:

101 Strings

George Mitchell Minstrels

Ray Conniff

Blind Faith

Max Boyce

Ray Quinn also I think

Pete Tong, The Heritage Orchestra and Jules Buckley

Journey South topped the charts in 2006 with their self titled album but never troubled the Top 100 singles which is unusual for an XF act.

such a shame... if it was the 90s i’m sure he would have scored 10 top 5 hits at least, but due to the overwhelming influence of streaming, this style of music is seldom represented in the chart...

Eva Cassidy.

Eva Cassidy.

She's had 5 singles in the top 100 since her death - including a #1 in 2007 with 'What a Wonderful World' with Katie Melua.
