Confirmed by billboard.com<\/a>: Heart’s album\u00a0Red Velvet Car<\/span> has debuted in the American Billboard 200 (albumsales) at\u00a0number 10 <\/strong>with 27.300 copies sold<\/span>. Returning in the top 10 after 20 years since 1990’s Brigade album, this is truly a fantastic and deserved result. I for one never expected to see my favorite band returning in the general public’s interest! Congratulations to Heart, their staff and all the fans!<\/p>\n

In the major webstores Amazon, Barnes & Noble and CDuniverse, the album has been in the top 5 the entire week. On Amazon the album has been number 1 for the total sales of week 30. Reports have been coming in about the album being sold out in regular stores.<\/p>\n

    From Yahoo<\/a>: Heart’s Red Velvet Car bows at #10. It’s the band’s seventh album to crack the top 10; its first to do so since Brigade in 1990. Heart first cracked the top 10 with Dreamboat Annie in October 1976. This gives the band, which is headed by sisters Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson, a nearly 34-year span of top 10 albums. That’s a new record for the longest span of top 10 albums by a female-fronted band<\/strong>. Others FFBs (female-fronted bands) with long spans of top 10 albums include Fleetwood Mac (28 years), Sade (25 years) and Jefferson Airplane\/Starship (18 years)..<\/p>\n

    The chart showing of Red Velvet Car marks a big improvement over Heart’s last studio album, Jupiters Darling, which debuted and peaked at #94 in June 2004. It opened with sales of 12,000 copies. (Here’s a depressing tidbit: That same sales total would have placed the album at #31 on this week’s chart.).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
