    Also, it’s not like the songs that didn’t make the charts were bad, they just didn’t hit the charts.

    Back then I believe only singles were eligible for the charts, not the rest of the album.

      Also, back then, and up until the late 00s, you bought albums, singles were a thing and plenty popular, but mainly if you liked a band you bought their album.

      The beatles hit number 1 for 90% of their studio albums.

        And their worst album (yellow submarine) was 3rd.
