The only pure pop title making the Top 10 of 2021 was Harry Styles ‘Fine Line’. While Adele is also considered Pop she also crosses into Soul, R&B.
Nirvana held down the no 2 and no 7 positions with the ‘Nevermind’ and ‘MTV – Unplugged In New York’ albums. Queen ‘Greatest Hits’, released in 1981, was at no 5, Fleetwood Mac ‘Rumours’, released in 1977 was at no 8 and Pink Floyd ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’, released in 1973 was at no 9.
