The debut album for Billy Corgan's new band Zwan could well debut at #1 in America next week.
'Mary Star of the Sea' has generated first day sales above that of current number 1 Norah Jones 'Come Away With Me'. If the sales trend continues the Zwan album may well top the Billboard chart next week with sales over 100,000 units.
Norah will hang on to her crown this week through after clocking up around 117,000 sales. This will be the 4th week at the top for the daughter of Indian sitar legend Ravi Shankar.
She also has another factor in her favour. The music industry is gearing up for it's night of nights, the Grammy Awards, just four weeks away. Norah Jones is the hot fav for walking home on the night with the bulk of the awards.
The publicity generated by the lead-up to the Grammy Awards may be just the thing to keep Billy and the boys at boy.
Next weeks chart will tell all.
