Re: UK's Most Successful Chart Acts
Total TOP 75 Album Artists : this must be 124 instead of 123 ( see also OCC data ) for Elvis because "30 #1's" 2.0 is considered as a "new" release ?!

Re: UK's Most Successful Chart Acts
He's at No.53 this week - 13th May 2022.
After showing the new re-issue last week, they have now reverted to the 2002 one again with appropriate stats [but listing it as a re-entry].
Do they know what they are doing ?
