By Keith Caulfield
02/4/2024Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time is back at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for an 18th nonconsecutive week, rising 2-1 on the list dated Feb. 10. In doing so, it ties Garth Brooks’ Ropin’ the Wind for the most weeks totaled No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart among country albums. Ropin’ the Wind logged 18 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 in 1991-92. (Country albums are defined as those that have appeared on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart.) One Thing at a Time earned 66,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending Feb. 1 (up 4%), according to Luminate. One Thing at a Time continues to have the most weeks at No. 1 among all albums since Adele’s 21 logged 24 nonconsecutive weeks atop the tally in 2011-12. One Thing at a Time debuted atop the chart dated March 18, 2023, and spent its first 12 weeks at No. 1 through early June. It then logged another three weeks in a row atop the list in late June and early July, nabbed its 16th week in charge on the Oct. 14 chart, followed by its 17th frame atop the Jan. 20 chart. In the album’s 48 weeks on the list, it has never dipped below No. 6. One Thing at a Time finished 2023 as both the No. 1 year-end Billboard 200 album and Luminate’s year-end top album. The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new Feb. 10, 2024-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Feb. 6.

Of One Thing at a Time’s 66,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending Feb. 1, SEA units comprise 64,000 (up 4%, equaling 87.32 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs), album sales comprise 1,500 (down 8%), and TEA units comprise 500 (down 1%). Since the Billboard 200 began publishing on a regular, weekly basis in March of 1956, only 15 albums have spent at least 18 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Here’s a recap. Most Weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200: Weeks at No. 1, Title, Artist, Year(s) 54, West Side Story, soundtrack, 1962-63) 37, Thriller, Michael Jackson, 1983-84 31, Rumours, Fleetwood Mac, 1977 31, South Pacific, soundtrack, 1958-59 31, Calypso, Harry Belafonte, 1956-57 24, 21, Adele, 2011-12 24, Purple Rain, soundtrack, Prince and The Revolution, 1984-85 24, Saturday Night Fever, soundtrack, 1978 21, Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em, M.C.

Noah Kahan’s Stick Season rises 5-4 with 47,000 equivalent album units, though down 2% for the week. The rest of the top 10 comprises former chart-toppers: Taylor Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) climbs 6-5 (45,000 equivalent album units; down 3%), SZA’s SOS steps 7-6 (42,000; up 3%), Swift’s Lover bumps 10-7 (40,000; up 6%), Zach Bryan’s self-titled album ascends 9-8 (nearly 40,000; up 3%), Swift’s Midnights climbs 11-9 (38,000; up 1%) and Wallen’s Dangerous: The Double Album goes 13-10 (37,000; up 6%).

Might be a little too early to worry about the decade end chart
In the meantime, enjoy the Taylor and Morgan catalog

Dave's Picks, Volume 49 debuts at No. 25, marking the 59th top 40 set for the group, which surpasses Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra for the most top 40 albums.
Grateful Dead breaks the record for most top 40-charting albums in the nearly 68-year history the Billboard 200. The group’s latest archival live release, Dave’s Picks, Volume 49: Frost Amphitheatre, Stanford U., Palo Alto, CA (4/27/85 & 4/28/85), debuts at No. 25 on the chart dated Feb. 10. It’s the 59th top 40-charting set for the band, surpassing the 58 top 40s earned by both Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra.
Here’s a recap of the acts with the most top 40-charting albums on the Billboard 200 since the list began publishing on a regular, weekly basis in March of 1956: 59, Grateful Dead 58, Elvis Presley 58, Frank Sinatra 54, Barbra Streisand 51, Bob Dylan 48, The Rolling Stones Dave’s Picks, Volume 49 is from the band’s long-running archival release series, named for the group’s archivist, David Lemieux. The series launched in 2012 and has granted the group 41 of its 59 top 40-charting sets on the Billboard 200. Dave’s Picks, Volume 49 earned 21,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending Feb. 1, according to Luminate – with all of that sum in traditional album sales. The album was exclusively available as a four-CD set, with a limited run of 25,000 copies manufactured. It was sold only through the band’s official website. (Releases in the series are issued exclusively on CD, in limited quantities, and sold through the Dead’s official channels.) Grateful Dead has logged at least three new top 40-charting albums on the Billboard 200 in every year from 2013 through 2023, largely on the strength of the Dave’s Picks releases. Dave’s Picks, Volume 49 also launches at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart, marking the first No. 1 on that chart for the group since the list began in 1991. The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multimetric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new Feb. 10, 2024-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Feb. 6. For all chart news, follow billboard and billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter and Instagram.

The Billboard 200 started in 1956, but they often use 1963 as the reference point due to the merging of the mono and stereo charts that had existed since 1959. Personally, I look at the stereo chart as a topic of interest, not an equal to the mono…

The Grateful Dead now has the longest gap between first appearance and first #1 in Sales: 56 years, 9 months. The previous record holder? Dolly Parton with the release of ‘Rockstar’ last year.

^According their respective Billboard 200 chart histories, Grateful Dead has 121 albums so far, while Elvis has 117. How many of Elvis' albums predated the Billboard 200?

It looks like the Billboard chart history is missing albums from 1956-1962.

^I just checked and the first Billboard 200 chart that can be accessed is dated August 17, 1963. I think that explains what you mentioned.
