In 1983, the name of the chart was Top LPs & Tape. Before Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991, Billboard estimated sales from a representative sampling of record stores nationwide, using telephone, fax or messenger service. [1] Data were based on rankings made by the record stores of the best-selling records, not on actual sales figures.
