UK, Ireland & Scotland Chart Positions January 2, 2026
Fleetwood Mac’s career-spanning 2018 compilation 50 Years: Don’t Stop surges 6 - 4 on the UK Albums Chart, equalling the highest position of its chart career, previously reached 36, 34 and 30 weeks ago. The set logs 7,653 units, driven almost entirely by streaming with just 48 CDs and one digital download contributing to the total.
Its tally now stands at 124 weeks inside the UK Top 10, extending its record as the longest-running artist compilation in Top 10 history. This week’s jump also sees it move back ahead of Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 landmark album Rumours, which slips from last week’s 672-week high of No. 5 to No. 11 on sales of 5,827 units.
Despite sharing six tracks with the most expansive edition of 50 Years: Don’t Stop, Rumours continues to demonstrate a very different retail profile. Its latest breakdown includes 1,951 vinyl albums, alongside CDs, downloads and streams - reinforcing its dominance as the best-selling vinyl album of the 21st century with 350,719 copies sold. By contrast, 50 Years: Don’t Stop has accumulated just 2,721 vinyl sales, suggesting that a future vinyl reissue could easily propel it to an even higher chart peak.
Elsewhere, Fleetwood Mac’s catalogue makes a major impact across the UK singles chart, with Dreams, Everywhere, and The Chain all returning to the Top 100, underlining the band’s multi-generational appeal as 2026 gets underway.

US Chart Positions January 3, 2026
In the United States, Rumours continues to outperform expectations nearly five decades after its release, rising to No. 12 on Top Album Sales, climbing on the Vinyl Albums chart to No. 7, and improving to No. 6 on Indie Store Album Sales - a clear sign of sustained demand among physical buyers and core catalog consumers.
The album also holds firm near the top of Billboard’s genre charts, remaining No. 4 on Top Rock Albums and No. 5 on Top Rock & Alternative Albums, while Greatest Hits continues to register solid multi-format activity across the same charts.
On the songs side, Silver Springs remains a notable presence on Rock Digital Song Sales, landing at No. 10 after last week’s No. 2 peak. Its continued digital performance underscores the song’s enduring resonance and places it alongside contemporary rock releases - a rare feat for a deep-catalog track as 2026 begins.
