Okay, that’s weird, my comment got cut off. the reason why I said this is an odd chart is because a fair amount of the albums in that chart are pretty old. Back in Black and Highway to Hell were released over 30 years ago. Plus almost the entire foo Fighters discography is in the chart somewhere. Is this chart really an accurate reflection of what UK rock fans are buying on a weekly basis, or is it just BBC Radio 1′s rock chart?
what an odd chart!
