Hot New Albums

Comments

Rod Stewart lands his 4th #1 album. It is his 2nd #1 album in the past 3 years. This time he's rewarded for cover versions of midtempo rock classics instead of pop standards. The top 5 includes 2 other long-term pop music veterans, Jimmy Buffett and Tony Bennett. 2006 has been a very good year for performers who have been in the pop business for more than 20 years.
