Title: Two BB singles in the same Top 40 UK chart Post by: harrisonjon on July 26, 2015, 10:32:01 AM Not sure how many times this happened in the 60s, but the last incidence I can find from the 70s is 25/7/1976, with Good Vibrations [1976] at 33 on Capitol and Rock & Roll Music at 39 on Reprise. It was a strangely Oldies chart including Back In The USSR, At The Hop and Leader of the Pack:

And did they ever have two albums entering the charts within two weeks of each other?

Title: Re: Two BB singles in the same Top 40 UK chart Post by: harrisonjon on July 26, 2015, 01:09:20 PM Apparently Simon & Garfunkel did so on Billboard in the US. For the UK I think Elvis and Frank Sinatra did so very early on (1957-59), and David Bowie in 1973. This is the Bowie chart; he has 5 albums in the Top 30:
