1982 is HERC's favorite year in music bar none. It is also the penultimate year in his favorite decade in music, 1974-1983. In the Summer of 1982, twenty-three albums found a home in the Top 10 of Billboard's Albums chart between May 29th and September 4th. Three albums reached #1 during that time and they are the Top 3 albums listed below. And only one album spent all 15 weeks in the Top 10 - the #1 Album below. An interesting oddity in the fifteen weeks of charts analyzed is that the first two charts are identical to one another as are the last two. This was also one of the tightest Top 10 Albums of Summer yet with 1.5 points separating Number Four from Number Twelve - those in between differ by fractions of a point, sometimes as little as a hundredth of a point. Seven of the Top 10 below also show up in HERC's Top 100 Albums of 1982.
