It is worth mentioning ....
As I said at the start of my Retro Rewind Charts "project" I'm re-imagining (or going back to the future) to a world when album cuts would have been eligible due to cherry picking of album tracks, and therefore would have charted in the equivalent of today's download/streaming climate when the Beatles spent three years at #1 in the album chart during the 1960s. As an indicator of popularity I'm largely taking non charting tracks from Acclaimed Music's All Time Top 6000 Songs Poll of Polls listings.
Examples of rankings of non single album cuts (not released circa the era the corresponding studio album was charting):
3 The Beatles A Day in the Life
20 The Rolling Stones Sympathy for the Devil
22 Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven
27 The Rolling Stones Gimme Shelter
64 The Velvet Underground I'm Waiting for the Man
78 The Smiths There Is a Light That Never Goes Out
95 Bruce Springsteen Thunder Road
etc...
You have to remember a lot of classic albums frequently had one or no singles released from them, as it was a rarity for albums to have four singles "mined" from them, until Michael Jackson's Thriller and beyond.
With album cuts taken from an album like Sgt Pepper ... then I'm rationing the number of tracks that chart from it at the same time, so they will chart separately or overlap during that album's chart run which spent circa 8 months in the top 5 of the UK album chart, rather than try and chart them simultaneously at the start of the album's run. Where possible I'm mirroring them charting to when opportunistic cover versions of album cuts were charting in the singles chart.
