NEW YORK — The recently released “Beatles’65” on Capitol which was No.98 on Billboard’s LP chart two weeks ago, soared to top position in the album chart last week. No album in the history of Billboard’s charts has ever scored such an advance in a single week.

And in 1962, The First Familymade its debut at No. 11 and was No. 1, seven days later.

The Beatles now have six albums on the chart, three in the top 10. Five of the six disks are on Capitol; one is on United Artists.

During 1964, the Beatles held the top album position for 30 of 52 weeks. A Hard Day’s Nightheld the top position for 14 of these weeks, and Meet The Beatlesled for 11 weeks. The Beatles Second Albumwas No.1 for five weeks.
