Soldatti After 4 weeks on chart, it seems that this week will be the last one for ABB in the UK Top 75 chart. The album plummets 2-13-32-61 and it could be the worst chart run EVER for a UK #2 album with only 4 weeks on chart, it never happened before.
The joke here is Live Licks: the album re-entered at #72 this week, 11 spots lower than ABB and with few copies difference between both albums.

Gazza Hardly a comparison when it comes to the overall sales

You can bet that when the Stones are in Europe next summer, ABB will be in the top 20 again

Plus, since about 2 months after its release its been easy to find Live Licks in the bargain bins.

Its currently on sale for about £5 in pretty much every major shop, which is about a third of the price of ABB. No wonder its sold a few extra copies

Ok, that's why Live Licks is there and not 40 Licks.
For the record, LL is the only Stones live album that re-entered the UK chart again after a drop off and their longest chart span for a live album in UK: 11 months between Nov. 13/20 2004 and Oct. 8 2005.
