- Each entry is listed with its chart entry date, highest position and number of weeks on the chart.
- Additional re-entry dates are only listed when there is a significant gap between chart runs.
- For entries containing multiple tracks, any tracks that didn’t stay for the full chart run are appended on a second line, preceded with a plus sign.
- The first chart was published on 28th June1975, and the last chart of the 1970s was published on 22nd December 1979. Earlier and later chart positions are not counted.
- Where no chart was published for a particular week, but a chart entry was listed for both the preceding and following weeks, the missing week is still counted for the “weeks on chart” total.
- The chart ran as a Top 20 until August 1977, as a Top 50 until March 1978, and as a Top 90 from March 1978 onwards.
