  • The UK Albums Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling albums of the week in the United Kingdom. Before 2004, the chart was only based on the sales of physical albums. This list shows albums that peaked in the Top 5 of the UK Albums Chart during 1957, as well as albums which peaked in 1956 but were in the top 5 in 1957. The entry date is when the album appeared in the top 5 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced). Nineteen albums were in the top five this year. High Society credited to Various artists was released in 1956 but did not reach its peak until 1957. Three artists scored multiple entries in the top 5 in 1957 (excluding albums by Various artists). Nat King Cole and Tommy Steele were the artists who achieved their first UK charting top 5 album in 1957. The 1956 Christmas number-one album, The King and I credited to Various artists, remained at number one for the first eight weeks of 1957. The first new number-one album of the year was High Society credited to Various artists. Six different albums peaked at number-one in 1957, with Frank Sinatra and albums credited to Various artists (2) having the most albums hit that position. (en)
