PARTON US—IT'S THE TOP 20

Dolly Parton's Rockstar (Butterfly/Big Machine/BMLG) could be the legend's very first overall #1 album. We must caution, however, that given the number of moving parts—availability at Cracker Barrel, Home Shopping Network and Dollar General Stores, the Thanksgiving holiday, and the always formidable Taylor Swift are all variables—there will be a greater-than-usual margin of error in today's projections.

Now, if you’ll excuse us, we’ve got to go dig those stretch pants out of storage before Thursday’s festivities.
