It follows the success of The Beatles’ ‘last song’.

The Beatles have taken up the top two places on the UK Record Store Chart this week.

The 1967-1970 and 1962-1966 compilations – commonly known as the Blue and Red albums respectively – were reissued to coincide with Now & Then, and have debuted at #1 and #2 while the combined box-set is at #7.




Elsewhere, Baby Queen, New Order and Passenger complete the Top 5, and The Rolling Stones have another week in the Top 10 courtesy of Hackney Diamonds.
