Adele is back on top of the album charts



Adele's 21 will be back at number-one on the Billboard 200 for a 24th non-consecutive week, with sales of 75,000 copies, according to the latest Soundscan figures.

The album got a boost from the June 3rd NBC special Adele Live in London. 21 has been topped the charts for the most weeks since Prince and the Revolution's Purple Rain soundtrack also spent 24 weeks atop the list in 1984 and 1985. And 21 has never left the Top 10 in its entire 68-week chart run.
