One-Days

YOUR ONE-DAYS: Luke Bryan will score his first #1 album on next week's chart and give Capitol Nashville its first #1 since Lady Antebellum debuted on top in September 2011. Here are this week's key debuts:

Luke Bryan (Capitol Nashville) 105-120k
Jimi Hendrix (Legacy) 65-70k
Boz Scaggs (429) 12-15k
Shake It Up 3 (Disney) 10-12k
How To Destroy Angels (Columbia) 10-12k

You may have noticed that Jimi Hendrix will have the second-biggest bow of the week, despite having shuffled off this mortal coil almost 43 years ago. People, Hell & Angels will apparently be the final album of unreleased studio material from the guitar god, who would've have turned 70 last year; it includes tracks he worked on in 1968-69 while developing the more groove-based sound he unveiled with his Band of Gypsys lineup. No matter the context, his playing still astonishes. (3/6p)
