Happened to pop into my local HMV yesterday to check for any interesting new vinyl arrivals,
Surprised to see no B&L on the shelves.
Why ?
Sold out !

Georgelicks, if I remember correctly, there is another Worldwide Chart (not only "Mediatraffic"). What sales number does it report for "Blue and Lonesome"?

Dropping to No. 2 in Germany, but only 0.6% less sold records than #1. Still unbelievable figures!

Sadly that one is not working anymore, Mediatraffic is the only one out there tracking worldwide sales, but still is not official.
A friend of mine just told me the first week shipments for the album worldwide: 650,000 units.

Maybe..but Keith should take credit for initiating the project?

I'd like to know how are the sales figures of Blues records in general to have a comparison - or just total figures of the Billboard Blues Charts, georgelicks.

Oh, I thought it would be easy to be No. 1 as only rather unknown Performers would be listed there, but Clapton, Bonamassa, Etheridge, Tedeschi!

Sales for blues albums are very low, the chart is a Top 15 so that gives a clue about the size of the blues market, maybe 500-800 copies for top 2-10 and 250-500 copies for a Top 11-15. Blue and Lonesome debuted at #14 there only with leaked sales of 270 copies previous to Dec. 2
