  • ANALYSIS the Official UK Singles & Albums Charts Are Compiled by the Official Charts Company, Based on a Sample of More Than 15,000 Physical and Digital Outlets
    ANALYSIS The Official UK Singles & Albums Charts are compiled by the Official Charts Company, based on a sample of more than 15,000 physical and digital outlets. They count actual sales and audio streams from last Friday to Thursday, based on sales of downloads, CDs, vinyl and other physical formats and audio streams weighted using SEA2 methodology. Highway to hell: Lewis Capaldi returns to top spot with debut album Q BY ALAN JONES ethroned by Bruce Springsteen last week, and trailing Will Young for much of the latest frame, Lewis DCapaldi edged past the latter to return to No.1. The Scot’s debut, Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent, bounces 3-1 to secure its fifth week at the summit, although its sales are off 21.00% week-on-week to 19,003 (including 11,085 from sales-equivalent streams) its lowest haul yet. Denied his fifth No.1 album at the death, Will Young’s seventh studio set, Lexicon, opens at No.2 on sales of 16,706 copies. He thus remains tied with Cheryl (two solo, two with Girls Aloud), One Direction and Olly Murs as the reality TV graduates with most No.1 albums. Lexicon is No.1 on both physical sales (11,752) and paid-for downloads (4,274), being No.1 let down only by streaming. Recording Young’s lowest first week sale for a studio album yet, it is the successor to 85% Proof, which previously held that record with 21,320, but which Lewis Capaldi - Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent (Virgin EMI) nevertheless opened at No.1 in 2015, and has sold 96,356 copies.

No.: MIG 90432 2CD Barcode: 885513904324 Format: 2 CD Jewel Genre: Rock ROCK'N ROLL JUNKIE The rise and fall of a Dutch icon: Herman Brood 1946-2001 Ten years ago, in July 2001, the Dutch musician, painter and media personality Herman Brood put an end to his life by jumping from the roof of the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel. To many, his suicide was the most significant event in the history of Dutch pop music of the 20th century. Ten years without Brood, but he still lives on: His music, an impressive art collection and, last but not least, the story of his life, have made him immortal. Herman Brood (1946-2001) was an "enfant terrible" and a cultural figure whose suicide only strengthened his controversial status. According to his friends, he could not cope with his failure to kick his drug and alcohol habit. Herman was called "the Netherlands' greatest and only rock'n'roll star." Later in life he became also a well-known painter. He set up his atelier in Amsterdam, and it became his second home. Herman Brood was born on November 5, 1946 in Zwolle in the eastern part of Holland. In 1959 the Dutch 'icon to be' got his first piano lessons. In school he was rather slow. He was more into playing the piano at his father's abandoned factory building.
