Fleetwood Mac "RUMOURS" Back on Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart - 2nd Time This Year!

"Rumours" will re-enter the Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart again this week marking the 2nd time within a month the album has re-entered the chart.  For the sales week ending January 22nd, "Rumours" sold 4,037 units in the United States good enough for the album to land at #117 on Billboard Chart dated February 4th.

The REALLY interesting part about that is "Rumours" was released on February 4, 1977.  February 4th marks the albums 35th Anniversary and to see it sitting within the Top 200 Album Chart 35 years later, I think that's pretty amazing!

In the last 4 weeks "Rumours" has sold 11,477 units in the US.

Over on the Top 200 Catalogue Chart "Rumours" takes a giant leap up from #103 to #19 this week.  "Greatest Hits" which saw a spike in sales the last three weeks is #165 on the Catalogue Chart on sales of 1,561 which is down from #56 the previous week where it sold 2,406.

In the last 4 weeks "Greatest Hits" has sold 9,353 units int he US.

On the Top Digital Tracks Chart Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide", which re-entered that chart last week at #58 on sales of 8,672 tracks, drops to #100 with sales of 6,616.

Adele hits another milestone!

Adele's 21 tops The Billboard 200 for the 17th week, which is the longest run by any album since Whitney Houston's The Bodyguard soundtrack logged 20 weeks on top in 1992-1993.

It's the longest run for an album by a British artist since the Police's Synchronicity was #1 for 17 weeks in 1983. (Two of the three members of that trio were born in England.) 

Only two albums by British (or majority-British) acts have had longer runs at #1. Fleetwood Mac's Rumours logged 31 weeks at #1 in 1977-'78. (Three of the five members that pop-rock group were born in England.) The Bee Gees' Saturday Night Fever soundtrack logged 24 weeks at #1 in 1978. (All three members of the brother trio were born in England.) 

VERA FARMIGA TO PLAY FLEETWOOD MAC’S CHRISTINE MCVIE

At last night’s ELLE dinner for “women who make women look good on film (and the men who love us!)”  Vera Farmiga let slip that she'll be playing Christine McVie in the upcoming biopic on Dennis Wilsons life.

"Aaron Eckhart is going to play Dennis Wilson of The Beach Boys and I’ll be playing one of the great loves of Dennis’ life—Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac, so that will be really fun!”

Elle.com

Aaron Eckhart will star as the legendary Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson in Randall Miller & Jody Savin's "The Drummer".  The biopic will concentrate on the last six years of Wilson's life which, according to many, he created some of the best music of his career.

Stevie Nicks Thanks Fans and Friends for Caring and Reaching Out + Soldier's Angel Crowned Song Of The Year

Stevie took to her official website today posting a letter explaining in a little more detail the circumstances surrounding her mothers passing.  She goes on to thank everyone for caring and reaching out to her saying "It means the world..."

Her mother Barbara was such a presents in her life right from the beginning when Stevie first burst onto the music scene back in the 70's - and even though we as fans never saw her that much, we felt we knew her just a little bit through stories Stevie would tell, and her music.  Her Mother (and Father) meant alot to her.

Thank you Stevie for sharing your mother with the world and also for keeping your fans included, we appreciate it and wish you and your family all the best.

CityArts - New York's Review of Culture crowns "Soldier's Angel"

Song of the Year

Saluting Stevie Nicks’ “Soldier’s Angel”

Writer Ben Kessler salutes Stevie's touchingly honest "Soldiers's Angel" in the current issue of City Arts calling it his choice for best pop song of the last year.

"My choice for best pop song of last year, Stevie Nicks’ “Soldier’s Angel,” points the way out of hype. As if responding to Bridesmaids and New Girl, Nicks shows us how 21st-century pop artists can speak truth and navigate politics.

In “Soldier’s Angel,” Nicks tells how her visits with wounded veterans at Walter Reed and Bethesda Naval Hospital unsettled her as a woman, citizen and icon. Lindsey Buckingham’s resonant guitar notes ensure that the song is threaded through with dread in the face of mortality. Against this stirring backdrop, Nicks’ voice—scarred and pitted by time and trouble—expresses a veteran artist’s perseverance for inspiration."
