From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These are the Official Charts Company's UK Country Albums Chart number ones of 2007. The chart week runs from Friday to Thursday with the chart-date given as the following Thursday. Chart positions are based the multi-metric consumption of country music in the United Kingdom, blending traditional album sales, track equivalent albums, and streaming equivalent albums. The chart contains 20 positions.

In the iteration of the chart dated 7 January, Johnny Cash's 2002 release American IV: The Man Comes Around spent its thirty seventh week at number one, having also held the top spot in the final week of 2006. The album remained there for the first five weeks of 2007, and later returned for a week in May. Cash's seminal live album At San Quentin also spent ten weeks at number one throughout the year. Taking the Long Way by the Dixie Chicks spent a fifth and sixth total week at number one, having previously reached the chart peak the previous year, while Alison Krauss held the top spot for two weeks with her greatest hits collection A Hundred Miles or More. Carrie Underwood's debut album Some Hearts also earned its first and only week at number one on the chart dated 3 June, having debuted in January 2006. Ryan Adams' Easy Tiger spent the most weeks at number one in 2007, holding the top spot for eleven consecutive weeks from July to September before being displaced by Prism by Beth Nielsen Chapman, her second UK number one.
