Irish Album Charts 1997 and 1998

[Shakyfan]

A few years back beatlened posted a series of threads covering the Irish album charts from the 90s. I had forgotten about these until he posted the links in the thread for the current year's charts the other day. Then last night while I was looking for my copy of the NME chart book I came across a file which contained my handwritten copies of the charts from around that period. To my surprise I discovered that it included the complete Top 30s for 1997 and 1998 which have never been posted. It's going to take a while to get them all typed up but I plan to add them over the coming weeks one month at a time. The source for these I presume would be Aertel (the Irish teletext service) as from memory the chart show on 2FM only counted down the Top 20 albums. When these 2 threads are completed we will have pretty much completed all the charts from the start of 1993 through to the end of 1999.

So let's start with the hit albums from January 1997 (date used as per beatlened's original posts is the date published in the Sunday World - ie the day after the charts were announced on 2FM).

I believe that the album marked Ministry of Sound II is actually called The Annual II - Pete Tong & Boy George which was on the MOS label. I initially wrote it down as Ministry of Sound II and then when it returned to the chart in mid February I have it as Ministry of Sound Annual II. *Edit this is confirmed having now seen the corresponding issue of the Sunday World newspaper containing that week's chart.

Now and In Time To Be was an unusual compilation. It was a collection containing the words of WB Yeats put to music by a selection of mainly folk artists.

RE 30 (WHAT'S THE STORY) MORNING GLORY? - OASIS

[Shakyfan]

*Correction made*

Just reached the start of November and noticed a re-entry for the Vard Sisters album which I had been posting as "A Touch of Heaven" rather than "Heavenly" (which I had written for the first 3 weeks). I think Larry Gogan may have introduced a track from it when it first charted as being "a touch of heaven" as a play on words but which I had mistakenly thought was the album title.

RE 30 FAT OF THE LAND - PRODIGY

I wrote down the Top 20 of this chart from the 2FM chart this week. The full chart was not revealed on Aertel due to the Christmas holidays. However a separate post here on UKMix has the full Top 75 albums from that week and so I have been able to add in the missing positions in the Top 30. There is one difference between them - on my original hand written Top 20 the Gael Force compilation was at number 20 - it appears to have actually been at 23.
Thanks to beatlened for pointing me in the direction of the complete chart.

[beatlened]

This is great. I was missing about 10 of those charts and some of what I had contained mistakes.

The only corrections here are the Bob Dylan album which is "The Best Of Bob Dylan" . There is another album called "The Very Best of" which first charted in 2013. And also Lightning Seeds must be a new entry in the 2/2/97 chart as we have all the charts from its release date (11/11/96) up to then and it's not in any of those.

I agree about Ministry Of Sound. It is The Annual II though the chart does not credit George or Pete
