James’ ‘Yummy’ Leads U.K. Albums Chart Race


It's James versus Mark Knopfler for the chart crown.

Based on midweek sales and streaming data captured by the Official Charts Company, James is on track for their second U.K. leader and 12th top 10 appearance with Yummy(via Nothing But Love Music), their 18th studio LP. The guitar great returned to the top 40 on the U.K. singles chart last month with his all-star, charity-fundraising rerecording of “Going Home (Theme from Local Hero)”, which opened at No. Nu-metal favorites Linkin Park is lining up a ninth U.K. top 10 appearance with Papercuts – Singles Collection (2000-2023)(via Warner Records), new at No.
