BUBLE BUBBLES OVER
The Reprise crooner will grab the #1 album slot next week, and likely stay there through the holidays, though Adele, Justin Bieber and The Black Keys will all challenge for the top spot.
Adele’s expected batch of Grammy nominations tonight for her 4.7 million-selling XL/Columbia album 21 could well put her in the hunt, while Bieber’s Island/IDJ release, Under the Mistletoe, and Nonesuch’s highly anticipated Black Keys record, El Camino, which comes out Dec. 6, will also be hot on Buble’s heels.
This week’s new release slate is rather slight, with
Adele’s Live at the Royal Albert Hall DVD/CD package which, according to the label, will be counted only on the DVD chart, should do between 55-70k.
The market was down 5% vs. last year’s Black Friday, but up 39% from last week and still leading last year by 2%.
Track sales were up 2% vs. last week, flat vs. same week last year and up 10% year to date.
TEA (Track Equivalent Album) sales were up 30% vs. last week, down 4% vs. same week last year and up 4% year to date.
