_Billboard_, Nov. 11

[ed@das.llnl.gov (Edward Suranyi)]

Here's the chart positions from this week's _Billboard_:

Modern Rock Tracks          L&A               #5 (up from #6)
Pop CDs                    _TSW_              #16 (up from #28)
British album chart        _TSW_              #6 (down from #2)
West German album chart    _TSW_              debut at #20 (I think)
Netherlands album chart    _TSW_              debut at #10
Pan-European album chart   _TSW_              debut at #6
US album chart             _TSW_              #49 (up from #84)

Some comments:  The news continues to be good in the US.  This chart
was clearly compiled before the release of the video for L&A, so the
video should give it a nice boost.  Don't forget that it's much harder to
climb positions near the top of the chart than near the bottom.

Even though the album started out doing somewhat worse than _Hounds Of
Love_, in its second week it's doing better!  _HOL_ was #51 in its second
week.  And the #16 on the CD chart is just amazing.
