Michael Jackson Dominated The Chart

Michael Jackson has three of the five best-selling albums in the U.S. for the second week in a row. Number Ones sold 339,000 copies this week and would have held at #1 on The Billboard 200 if catalog albums were eligible to compete on that chart.

Thriller sold 187,000 copies and would have jumped from #3 to #2 if catalog albums were invited to the party. The Essential Michael Jackson sold 125,000 copies and would have dropped from #2 to #5.

Jackson's catalog of solo albums sold 800,000 copies this week, up from 422,000 copies last week. Billboard reports that 82% of the Jackson albums sold this week were CDs. Last week, 43% of the Jackson albums sold were CDs.
