Top Local Sellers - Albums & Downloads
While The Black Keys' El Camino is still at the top spot at Twist & Shout, it's moved down in the charts at other stores to make way for new discs like Let's Go Eat the Factory by Guided By Voices, which features the band's classic line-up after a fifteen-year hiatus, and was the top seller last week at Wax Trax and in the top five at Albums on the Hill and Twist & Shout. Ani DiFranco's Which Side Are You On?, released last week on her own Righteous Babe imprint, claimed the top spot at Albums on the Hill, while Young Jeezy's TM 103 is still on top at Independent Records.
