The year’s winding down and it’s been a quiet week for the UK Record Store Chart with Adele unsurprisingly still out in front thanks to ‘25‘.
In fact, the only Top 20 new entries come from the hugely exciting trio of The Corrs, Il Divo and Def Leppard, while the remastered Beatles singles collection ‘1‘ is at #11.
Launched in 2012, the UK Record Store Chart aims to support traditional music shops and is thus compiled entirely from sales registered at 100 of Britain’s leading independent outlets.
