Bob Dylan earns first No. 1 album since 1976
NEW YORK (Billboard) - For the first time in 30 years, Bob Dylan topped the U.S. album charts Wednesday with "Modern Times," his third consecutive top-10 studio set.
The Columbia Records release sold 192,000 copies in the week ended September 3, according to Nielsen SoundScan data.
Not only is it the legendary songwriter's first album to reach the throne since "Desire" in 1976, it's also his highest debuting album and his best sales week since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking data in 1991.
Dylan's previous album, 2001's "Love & Theft" opened at No. 5 with 133,760 copies. Before that, he peaked at No. 10 with 1997's "Time Out of Mind," which opened with 101,600 units. Aside from "Desire" and "Modern Times," only two other Dylan albums assumed the plateau on the chart: 1974's "Planet Waves" and 1975's "Blood on the Tracks."

Good for BOB! His album was priced at $9.99 at amazon.com. Maybe the Stones could take a lesson here? |

Yeah, that cold turkey stuff is not the way to go. If you go celibate the safest way is gradual withdrawal. |

upset over her low sales (77k) may have caused her behavior. |

Yes....about 10 miles from me. I heard today that it was about rent. The guy was behind and the lady who owned the B&B tried to get the dude that got murdered first to collect it. Maine has no death penalty. |

One of the women that got murdered has a little girl about the same age as Steve Irwin's daughter. She was on the front page of today's paper. I couldn't even read it....I just tossed the paper back on the table. |
