Excel counting columns

Counting duplicates in Excel

I want something very similar to the above. Consider input like

GL15
GL15
GL15
GL16
GL17
GL17
GL17

The above column is just one of the columns in a sheet. I want the output to be

GL15 3
GL16 1
GL17 3

I was hoping Pivot Table would solve this. So I added the column as a "Row Label" but I cannot get the count to work.

Please can someone provide some instructions?
