LTC is #1 Album according to Billboard

Post by Demerara »

I guess this doesn't surprise us, from Billboard, "Buffett Notches First No. 1 Album"

Congrats, Jimmy! Maybe it is the biggest album of his career, huh?

I should mention that's the Billboard 200 Album chart -- not "just" the Country chart! First week U.S. sales of 234,000 copies (I guess us "foreigners" don't count. :D )

Is there a way to tell if LTC also caused a spike in Jimmy's other CDs?

My biggest fear is that when I die, my wife will sell all my Buffett stuff for what I said I paid for it!

SYKBH was up 34% from 6074 to 8159. It's # 11 on the Pop Catalog charts. That's the only catalog title charting, though I would imagine most saw some increase.

You mean there are 4 other Jimmy Buffett's in the world? That's amazing! With 5 Jimmy's to go around, maybe in the future we can have five different concerts on the same night in different ciites! :wink: :D
