Billboard downsizes the rock chart.
Events that shaped Album Rock during that year
Billboard Makes Changes To Album Rock Tracks Chart
Starting with Billboard's June 27th issue, the Album Rock Tracks chart underwent two changes. First, the size of the chart was downsized from the top 50 tracks to the top 40. This marked only the second time Billboard changed the number of tracks ranked on the ARTC, the first being in 1984. Second, Billboard added the "Recurring Tracks" chart, with 10 tracks ranked each week. This chart consisted of tracks which previously spent 20 or more weeks on the ARTC, but fell out of the top 20.
All rock tracks listed on Billboard Magazine's Top Rock Tracks chart that year.
