NOTE: CFNY always had a devil-may-care attitude towards charts, freely
listing albums and singles together. Accordingly, the original chart listed
the year's best 'records' from 1-82, regardless of whether they were issued
in the LP, 7" or 12" format. Contributed by: K.A. Scott (Tuesday, 2012-04-17) |
