How long did it take the album "Fleetwood Mac" (1975) to hit #1?

▼
Correct Answer: 58 weeks
(Source)The album took a whopping 58 weeks to finally hit number one in September 1976. That's more than a full year of slowly climbing the charts, which makes sense when you consider that the thing debuted at number 183 back in August 1975. The album had serious staying power thanks to three top twenty singles that kept radio stations busy all year long. "Over My Head," "Rhiannon," and "Say You Love Me" all became massive hits, with the last two peaking at number 11 and just missing the top ten. The slow burn turned out to be worth it, as the album eventually went on to sell over 9 million copies in the United States alone. Sometimes the best things really do take time, and in this case, it took almost 14 months for America to fully appreciate what would become one of the most successful lineups in rock history.
