Billboard Number One Albums Of The 1970s

  • 6 years ago
All albums that reached number one on the Billboard 200 during the 1970s.

At the start of this decade, the Billboard 200 was called the Top LPs, then it was called the Top LPs & Tape sometime in 1972. The Billboard 200 name wouldn't be used until May 13, 1992, but is the name used now even in retrospect.

"Abbey Road" spend 8 weeks at number one in 1969, and "Led Zeppelin" spent another week at number one that same year, but I'm just focusing on the 1970s performances here. The song Houses of the Holy" doesn't appear on the album of the same name (it appears on Physical Graffiti), but it's played there just to keep the pattern going.
