Talk:List of best-selling albums of the 1960s in the United Kingdom

Source for chart?
I'm happy to see this article exists, but where are the sources for the chart? I have two that you can choose from:

from Illustrated Book Of Rock Records by Barry Lazell & Dafydd Rees published 1982
 * 1) THE SOUND OF MUSIC … Soundtrack
 * 2) WITH THE BEATLES … Beatles
 * 3) BEATLES FOR SALE … Beatles
 * 4) SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND … Beatles
 * 5) RUBBER SOUL … Beatles
 * 6) WEST SIDE STORY … Soundtrack
 * 7) THE BEATLES (WHITE ALBUM) … Beatles
 * 8) REVOLVER … Beatles
 * 9) A HARD DAY'S NIGHT … Beatles
 * 10) ABBEY ROAD … Beatles
 * The above is a list of the top selling albums up to the end of 1969

from The Top Ten Of Music by Russell Ash & Luke Compton published 1993
 * 1) SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND … Beatles
 * 2) THE SOUND OF MUSIC … Soundtrack
 * 3) WITH THE BEATLES … Beatles
 * 4) ABBEY ROAD … Beatles
 * 5) SOUTH PACIFIC … Soundtrack
 * 6) BEATLES FOR SALE … Beatles
 * 7) A HARD DAY'S NIGHT … Beatles
 * 8) RUBBER SOUL … Beatles
 * 9) THE BEATLES (WHITE ALBUM) … Beatles
 * 10) WEST SIDE STORY … Soundtrack
 * the above list is of 1960s albums - based on sales up to 1993

It depends on how the top-selling is based really. Within the 60s or albums of the 60s?

Hope this is of some help.--Tuzapicabit (talk) 11:57, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm... The source that I've been using is an archive of an old page from the Official Chart Company's website (see right at the very bottom), which seems to correspond with the Ash & Compton ref that you've listed. I took the page to be listing the albums that sold the most during the 1960s (rather than the albums from the 1960s who have since sold the most), and that corresponds with some other sources that I can find, e.g. everyHit. Personally, I think that the Ash & Compton source is correct, although I'm more than willing to discuss it further. Thanks, A Thousand Doors (talk &#124; contribs) 17:41, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
