Due to Emeli' Sande's 2nd Album entry today being her 68th UK Top 10 Album Week, I've up-dated these Lists.
THE ACTS WITH THE MOST UK TOP 10 ALBUM WEEKS
(W/E 28th July 1956 to W/E 24th November 2016)
01)… ELVIS PRESLEY – 540 Weeks
02)… THE BEATLES – 469 Weeks
03)… CLIFF RICHARD – 340 Weeks
04)… FRANK SINATRA – 315 Weeks (Not including 22 Weeks with the 1958 ‘Pal Joey’ OST) @@@
05)… ROLLING STONES – 268 Weeks (The OCC say 265 Top 10 Weeks)
06)… MICHAEL JACKSON – 265 Weeks
07)… ROD STEWART – 259 Weeks

18)… THE GEORGE MITCHELL MINSTRELS – 171 Weeks
19)… BEACH BOYS – 169 Weeks
20)= SIMPLY RED – 165 Weeks
20)= COLDPLAY – 165 Weeks
@@@ = FRANK SINATRA – The OCC have him at No.3 twice, in the Chart of W/E 25th January 1959.
They have both ‘Come Fly With Me’ and ‘Only For The Lonely’ at No.3 – for its 1st & only Top 10 Week.
However, there was no such Chart Entry as ‘Only For The Lonely’, so The OCC give him 1 Top 10 Week
too many – 316. He was in the same Top 10, (at No.9), with ‘Frank Sinatra Sings Only For The Lonely’
and that Album was a No.5 Hit & spent 13 Weeks in the Top 10. It has the same Capital Label Number
as ‘Only For The Lonely’ - LCT 6168. ‘Only For The Lonely’ does not exist in UK Chart Books either.

@@@ = PHIL COLLINS – The OCC has ‘Hello I Must Be Going’ rising from No.23 to No.9 in
the Chart of W/E 2nd April 1983. It actually rose from No.23 to No.20 in that Chart. It had 10
Weeks in the Top 10 – not 11. Hence why I get 158 Top 10 Album Weeks for Phil Collins & The
OCC get 159 Top 10 Weeks for him.

UK No.1 Album. She’s had 5 UK No.2 Albums.
