(2) Double Listings

#7 (Portfolio) & #12 (La Vie En Rose) are the same (based on time frame of 1977 & the fact that 'La Vie En Rose' was the biggest single from 'Portfolio' album). Also #1 (Nightclubbing) & #13 (Libertango), based on time frame of 1981 & the fact that 'I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango)' is from the 'Nightclubbing' album.

The first looks right, and is fixed, but the second is more difficult. The only chart that has "Libertango" is a French one and unfortunately it also has an entry already for "Nightclubbing" (number 44 of the same year). This implies either that they consider these to be two distinct albums, or (and more likely) they had some entries for one name and some for the other. Unfortunately we don't have enough info to disentangle those cases. So we have to leave the data for the second as it is.

Thanks for the suggestion
