Swedish group ABBA spent 35 weeks at the top of the UK Album Chart during the 1970s, longer than any other artist.
The UK Albums Chart is a record chart based on weekly album sales in the United Kingdom; during the 1970s, a total of 148 albums reached number one. In October 1971, Imagine by John Lennon and The Plastic Ono Band became the 100th album to top the UK chart; seven years later, Nightflight to Venus by Boney M. became the 200th album to do so.[1]
Number ones [ edit ]
By artist [ edit ]
Simon & Garfunkel 's album Bridge Over Troubled Water topped the albums chart for 33 weeks during the 1970s, and was the decade's biggest-seller.
Rod Stewart (right) released seven number-one albums during this decade.
Five artists spent 20 weeks or more at number one on the albums chart during the 1970s.
By record label [ edit ]
Eight record labels spent 20 weeks or more at number one on the albums chart during the 1970s.
^ The record labels are those given by the OCC.[20]
^ [22] "During October 1979, a change in the publication date of the album chart meant that two rundowns were published in one week, which results (naturally) in two number 1 albums – Blondie’s Eat to the Beat and The Police’s Regatta De Blanc. Contrary to some databases, we take the view that both charts are valid – so Eat to the Beat WAS a number 1, despite the fact that some histories indicate that it peaked at 2."
