Tonight’s mystery artists when ranked by the 'All Time Top 200 Billboard Album Chart' had an album that came in ahead of the Beatles Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club, Pink Floyd's The Wall and U2’s Joshua Tree. Any guesses who the band is or what the album might be??

Back in 2015 Billboard created the first-ever “Billboard Greatest of All Time Rankings" for its legendary Hot 100 and Billboard 200 song, album and artist charts. And Foreigner’s webpage is proud to tell you: "They rocked every single list, proving the staying power of one of rock’s most prolific bands. In some categories, Foreigner outshined contemporary major artists including Taylor Swift, Kid Rock, Kate Perry and Kanye West."

My note: '4' at #46 however did come in behind the soundtracks to the Sound of Music and Mary Poppins, Dr Zhivago and Frozen plus a host of our other favorite artists old and new…just sayin’. Really our highest performing classic rocker on this list was Springsteen's 'Born in the USA' in at number 5, Go Jersey!

But I digress. here are some of Forgiener’s highlights:

      • In the all-time top Billboard 200 Albums chart, Foreigner’s 4 comes in at #46 ahead of The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club, Pink Floyd’s The Wall U2’s Joshua Tree. Foreigner 4 spent more weeks at # 1 than albums by Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton or any other band in Atlantic Records 65 year history.
      • In the all-time top Billboard 200 Artists chart, Foreigner comes in at #62 ahead of Simon & Garfunkel, Heart, The Who and many more.
      • In the all-time top Billboard Hot 100 Songs chart, Foreigner hit “Waiting for A Girl Like You” comes in at #95. The song spent 14 weeks at #2, a record for the chart. It placed ahead of Katy Perry’s “Dark Horse,” and anything by The Eagles, Journey and most of their Classic Rock peers.
      • In the all-time top Billboard Hot 100 Artists chart, Foreigner comes in at #56 ahead of such powerhouse artists as The Eagles, Queen, Fleetwood Mac and Bruce Springsteen.
