The Official Charts Company have completely revamped their website as of 30th June. Many of the chart tallies for Elvis' singles and albums are incorrect:

https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/1 ... is-presley

I will give them a week or two to iron out the problems otherwise I will not have any other option but to go with their figures.

CAVEAT: The above tallies are the current ones shown on the Official Charts Website. However I suspect some of them are incorrect. For what they are worth I have printed them. I have deleted the 'Most No.2 Singles' and 'Most No.2 Albums' but will attempt to keep a track of them. I have written to the OCC to clarify the Elvis tally errors but so far have not received a reply and I will be surprised if I get one.
