Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have a third week at number one on the UK Record Store Chart.
A raft of new entries from the likes of Warpaint, Bruce Springsteen, David Bowie, Passenger and Pink Floyd haven’t been enough to knock Skeleton Tree off its pedestal, while Jack White is also going strong still with Acoustic Recordings.
Launched in conjunction with the Record Store Day celebrations of 2012, the UK Record Store Chart aims to support Britain’s independent music shops and is compiled entirely from sales registered at 100 of those leading outlets.
