And according to some sources, including Google AI,
Fleetwood Mac's Rumours first reached number one on the US Billboard 200 chart on April 2, 1977 (so yesterday was 49 years ago).
The iconic album dominated the charts for 31 non-consecutive weeks, becoming one of the best-selling records of all time.

The high hopes and countless hours we had poured into Rumours were completely validated when the album slipped into the number one album chart position on May 21, 1977, displacing Hotel California by our colleagues and friendly rivals the Eagles. Rumours stayed at number one on the Billboard and Cashbox charts for the next eight months, a total of thirty-one straight weeks.
