TOP 100 ALBUMS CHART

Fleetwood Mac's UK Box Set "25 Years - The Chain" moves down, but only slightly this week from #17 to #24 in it's 3rd week of release pretty much guaranteeing it will stick around the Top 100 for a 4th and possibly a 5th week. This 4 CD Box Set has done really well for the band in the UK.  It was originally released worldwide in 1992 but never charted in the UK.  With new packaging for this years release including the same music and same 68 page booklet as the '92 version, but selling at a deeply discounted price at Amazon, HMV and other retailers it's pretty amazing what it's done at retail!  Nice set up for next years Fleetwood Mac tour and the likelihood that dates will happen in the UK. Rumours on the Catalogue Charts this week is sitting nicely at #9.

# 24 (17) Fleetwood Mac - 25 Years, The Chain

(Video) 1st Week UK Sales for Fleetwood Mac's 4 Disc Box Set "25 Years The Chain"

20 years after its original release, Fleetwood Mac’s 25 Years: The Chain debuts at number nine (13,165 sales) in the UK. The clue to its age is in the title. Fleetwood Mac's recording career started in 1967, and 25 Years: The Chain is a 4CD set of hits, album tracks, alternate takes and rare mixes that was first issued to mark those 25 years in 1992 but failed to chart. Its re-promotion comes at a more affordable price point: originally retailing for around £40, it is now widely available for around £12, and was advertised on TV last week as a Father’s Day gift.

STILL on sale in the UK at AMAZON for £11.97 Buy now.. Who knows how long this deal will last
