JACKSON BACK ON TOP WITH BEST SALES WEEK IN 14 YEARS

MICHAEL JACKSON is back at the top of the U.S. album charts with the soundtrack to his concert rehearsal film THIS IS IT.
The late King of Pop's 373,000 opening-week sales is the fifth best sales week for an album in the U.S. this year. It's Jackson's best sales week since 1995's HIStory.
It also scores the late superstar 16 number ones in album charts around the world.
The new hits album keeps Creed's comeback album, Full Circle, off the top of the U.S. countdown, while Taylor Swift's Fearless rockets back up the charts to three thanks to a deluxe platinum edition release last week.
Rod Stewart's latest covers album, Soulbook, debuts at four and the Trans-Siberian Orchestra pips Sting to a top five place.
The TSO's Night Castle enters the chart a spot ahead of Sting's holiday album If On A Winter's Night, which tops Billboard's Top Holiday Albums countdown.
