context_page_description: Top Country Albums is a chart that ranks the top-performing country music albums in the United States, published by Billboard. In 1967, 17 different albums topped the chart, which was at the time published under the title Hot Country Albums, based on sales reports submitted by a representative sample of stores nationwide.
  In the issue of Billboard dated January 7, Sonny James was at number one with the compilation album The Best of Sonny James, the record's third week in the top spot. It was displaced from the top spot in the issue dated January 21 by Somebody Like Me by Eddy Arnold. One of the biggest country stars of the 1960s, Arnold had four chart-topping albums in 1967 which spent a combined total of 18 weeks in the top spot, the most by any artist. He also had the two longest unbroken runs atop the chart, spending seven weeks at number one with The Best of Eddy Arnold in the summer and six weeks in the top spot with Turn the World Around in November and December. Three other acts also had more than one number one in 1967. Buck Owens and his Buckaroos had three chart-toppers, but each spent only a single week at number one.
