Official Albums Chart Top 100 | Official Charts Company

He keeps the top spot. Half of the top ten is Bowie albums. Most of his albums actually going up in the charts.

He's tied Elvis for the most albums in the Top 40 at once with 12.

Can a mod rename and possibly move this to the Rock forum or something?

Anyway what I came in to post, does anyone know what time he died NY time and also what was his last interview? Jonathan Ross 2003?

We've got an official David Bowie thread already (http://www.musicbanter.com/general-m...ie-thread.html). We'll keep this one up for stuff regarding his death. I don't think it's out of place here since he was so diverse.

Nice one, just felt a bit odd me constantly bumping it a month after he died.

Not sure if the title is correct, but this is from 2006.

I believe that is satire/part of the program. I can't find an actual interview after the second Wossy show he did.

EDIT - ignore that, just watched it.
