Comments
In its 9th straight week of rising sales, the soundtrack to High School Musical once again tops the album chart. Unfortunately, the music from the soundtrack is still subject to a ban from pop radio. Here's hoping the sales will prove that so-called mainstream pop radio should play all popular mainstream pop. Donald Fagen, one-half of Steely Dan, continues the string of classic rockers re-entering the charts with Morph the Cat opening at #26.
