For the first time in over a year, and only the sixth time in the modern era, half of the top 10 albums on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart (dated July 20) are country albums.

Zach Bryan’s The Great American Bar Scene leads the country party at No. 2 on the July 20-dated Billboard 200, followed by Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time (No. 3) and Dangerous: The Double Album (No. 6), Shaboozey’s Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going (No. 8) and Bryan’s self-titled album (No. 10).

Country albums are defined as those that have appeared on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart. The list began in 1964.

In the modern era – since the Billboard 200 chart began using electronically monitored tracking information from Luminate (then-SoundScan) on the May 25, 1991-dated chart – there have been only six instances where at least half of the top 10 were country titles.

Here’s a look at each of those weeks and the country sets inside the top 10 on the Billboard 200 —

Currently, the Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. From May 25, 1991 – Dec. 6, 2014, traditional album sales, as electronically monitored and tabulated by Luminate, were the sole measurement to rank albums on the chart.
