On The Charts - The Albums

This shows Dolly's album chart history, giving the title and label for each album, the date it debuted on Billboard's country album chart, its peak positions on both the country and pop charts, and songs contained. Top 10 albums are noted in bold. No. 1 albums have the number of weeks at the top of the charts in parenthesis if for more than one week. On the track listings, any song which Dolly wrote or co-wrote is in itallics, and any charted singles have their chart positions noted (c=country; p=pop; ac=adult contemporary, if known). Albums which have reached gold (500,000), platinum (1 million) or double-platinum (2 million) status are also so noted. Grammy nominations and wins shown are only those for full albums and not those for individual songs. Of note, Dolly holds the record for the most top 10 country albums for any artist with a total of 42 (Loretta Lynn is second with 40 and Merle Haggard is third with 39).
