Hmm. Good for her. I’m sort of surprised. I figured anticipation usually works in her advantage and with a little over a year after her last album I thought she might struggle with sales on this one. I’m glad she’s not having any trouble though.
Country/rock vet Lucinda Williams’ “Little Honey” (Lost Highway) starts at No. 9 with 35,000. Her 2007 album, “West,” began at No. 14, but sold more in its first week, raking in 57,000.
Here in the UK, where there is no advertising and Lucinda gets minimal airplay, if any at all, the album made its debut at number 51 on the first week of release.
