List of best-selling albums by year in the United States
This is a list of the best-selling albums by year in the United States. ''Billboard'' magazine began publishing year-end lists for album sales in 1956. Until 1991, the ''Billboard'' album chart was based on a survey of representative retail outlets that determined a ranking, not a tally of actual sales. Weekly surveys and year-end charts by ''Billboard'' and other publications such as ''Cash Box'' magazine sometimes differed. For instance, during the 1960s and 1970s, the number-one album as determined by these two publications differed in 10 out of 20 years. From 1991 onwards, the ''Billboard'' year-end and weekly charts were calculated by Nielsen SoundScan. Note that this slightly differs from the ''Billboard'' year-end album number one chart, which is a measure of chart performance over the twelve months from December to November (cutoff determined by ''Billboard''´s publication schedule) rather than actual total sales per calendar year.
Harry Belafonte's 1956 record entitled ''Calypso'' was the first product to be recognized as a top-selling album for a year once ''Billboard'' magazine started tracking sales figures. Adele's 2011 record ''21'' currently holds the title for the US's top-selling digital album. American Pop/R&B singer-songwriter Mariah Carey, singer Whitney Houston, British glam rock performer Elton John, rapper Eminem and Taylor Swift each have had two of their albums be top sellers in two separate years in the US. Pop singer Michael Jackson's 1982 ''Thriller'' became the best-selling record in the country for two consecutive years in the 1980s (and later became the best-selling album of all time). Other albums to achieve the same accomplishment included the ''My Fair Lady'' Original Cast Recording from the hit 1950s Broadway production between 1957–1958, the original soundtrack of West Side Story between 1962-1963, and the album 21 by Adele between 2011-2012.
