Billboard's own ranking of the Top 40 Album Rock Tracks for 1997.
NOTE: Billboard surveyed each of their year·end charts from about mid·November of the previous year to the same point of the current year. This was likely done to allow their number-crunchers time to tabulate the tracks to be ready for the final issue on the last week of December.
