Taylor Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ remains at No. 1 after selling five times more copies than the Grateful Dead’s live recording
The Grateful Dead’s long, strange trip back to the charts came to a dead stop at No. 2, thanks to Taylor Swift.
Dave’s Picks Vol. 50 wasn’t made available to stream or consume in any other manner but actual sales, according to Forbes. So, the 20,390 copies sold are all pure purchases: no “album equivalent” numbers whatsoever. Dave’s Picks Vol. 50 debuted at No. 32 on the Billboard 200, at No. 7 on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums chart, and at No. 6 on the Top Rock Albums chart.Swift, 34, released TTPD on April 19 and the album immediately shattered sales and pre-save records. It sold 1.5 million copies in its first week, with 700,000 sales from vinyl alone. TTPD earned the title of best single week vinyl sales since Luminate began tracking the data in 1991.
