RUMOURS - FIRST ALBUM EVER TO HAVE 4 TOP 10 HITS
I did not know this!... Or maybe I did, but I never realized the significance of it.
"Rumours" by Fleetwood Mac
The first album to have 4 Top 10 singles (let alone 4 singles period).
So I've read, back in the day albums were typically mined for a max of two singles.
