(5) Double Listings
#11 & #27 are the same (Greatest Hits). Also #14 & #18 (The Best Of James Taylor). Also #26 & #31 (Greatest Hits Volume 2). Also #25 & #30 (A Christmas Album). And finally #7 (One Man Dog) & #23 (One Man Band) need to be sorted out. They are separate albums but you have combined the Billboard chart data together. 'One Man Dog' s/b Billboard #4 - 25 weeks. 'One Man Band' s/b Billboard #17 - 13 weeks.
The original data on the Billboard has only 'One Man Band' but we've fixed that (and the rest of your suggestions)
Thanks
