So how far did it drop this week??
Billboard & Other Weekly Album Charts 2015 - CRAZY-HORSE - 27-03-2015
LOL, looks like Kendrick Lamar went straight to #1 in your neck of the woods also...
Billboard & Other Weekly Album Charts 2015 - Music Head - 27-03-2015
Madonna just missed at #21
surprised Modest Mouse came in that high
Billboard & Other Weekly Album Charts 2015 - CRAZY-HORSE - 27-03-2015
Yeh, me too....
More surprising to me is that MM debuted at 15 here...
Madonna is now at that career stage like the Dylans,NY,Macca,Fogerty,Elton etc where the fans fo out and get the albums upon release week...
I think the latest U2 album did the same thing also....

Yes but not just the industry--the whole landscape, especially consumers (us) have changed considerably in acquiring methods, payment expectations, patience, social media playing a huge part in folk's lives--all of it. If anything, the music industry has been dead-slow to respond--the hipper labels and artists (the ones I'm attuned to) get it; the Big Dogs everywhere in the industry (and that specifically includes chartmakers), not so much.
