[a] The Hurting had already been in release for eight months and was on my chart when I started it in November 1983.

[b] 1999 had already been in release for 53 weeks and was on my chart when I started it in November 1983.

[c] The record for the longest run at #7.

[d] My chart recorded the albums exactly as their titles were rendered on their labels, not on their LP sleeves or CD or cassette booklets. In many cases there were inconsistencies between packaging and labelling or between different audio formats. In some cases there were mistakes, such as with this title, whose error-free title is actually called Unfinished Music No. 2: Life With The Lions.
