Weakend Chart Preview

Adele goes back to #1 next week for her 12th non-consecutive week at the top, surpassing Taylor Swift's Fearless for the most weeks at #1 since at least 2000. In fact, the last album to log 12 weeks at #1 was Santana's Supernatural in 1999 and 2000. If the current ranking holds as projected, Adele's distributor, Sony Music, will score six titles in the Top 10. Here's how it looks headed into the weekend:

Adele (XL/Columbia) 75-80k
Eric Church (Capitol Nashville/EMI) 60-65k
*Mat Kearney (Universal Republic) 40-45k
