Looking at this http://www.polyhex.com/music/index.php; http://www.polyhex.net/music/ChartAnalysis/ChartAnalysis2006-09-16.pdf

none are in top 75

There is a top 200, but that requires a subscription

http://www.chartsplus.co.uk/AlbumsChart.php

But I don't think they made it

Thanks for that ArrGee. Interesting to see how each of the singles fared after their first week on the charts - not surprisingly Pulp's (as with most singles) peak position was always on the first week of sales. In fact Disco 2000 is the only single that appears to have improved on it's chart position the previous week, though none of them improved on their first week high. The last few singles propping the 20-30 barrier were obviously typical fan-base only sales I would imagine, struggling to get airplay to help them crossover to a wider audience.

Do you have a similar chart-log for Pulp's albums? I'd like to know how long HnH stuck around for and just how far TIH's fall was (from the top spot to number 12 on the second week I think?).

And with a good percentage of people on Pulp and music forums hesitating over whether to spend so much money on the reissues it's hardly surprising none of them dented the charts but to be fair few re-issues (not including 'Best Of's) do. Perhaps if the albums had been released seperately they would be up there - it would be interesting to see what the combined sales of the 3 reissues were last week.

This is the best I have from when Different Class reentered (sadly no details for Hardcore)....

I'll request the Pulp one, http://www.ukmix.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=13100&highlight=chart+histories once my registration comes through.

In the meantime, this is what I found

as of now... (they fluctuate a lot)

Different Class  -  Amazon.co.uk Sales Rank: 269 in Music
His 'n' Hers    -     Amazon.co.uk Sales Rank: 438 in Music
This Is Hardcore - Amazon.co.uk Sales Rank: 496 in Music

I guess that if they don't break into the top 200 there, then chart action is unlikely.

At one point Amazon UK had DC at #119 on their internal sales chart. But I think those sales charts are easily manipulated. If two people buy the record in an hour, it probably jumps 50 slots.

A lot of record stores haven't even stocked the deluxe editions yet, so I don't think Island put out enough copies to get them in the charts.

Not too easily manipulated, you have to sell a lot to make top 200.  Amazon is a specialised retailer (hard to believe, but true).  I have seen acts have their newly released special editions take umpteen places in the top 50 throughout the week, and then when the charts come out the simultaneouly released greatest hits that didn't dent the amazon top 100, goes flying into the charts courtesy of high street sales.  Also amazon sales are pan-European, so may not count for UK chart purposes.

The UK charts reflect what is sold at Woolworths, Tesco, HMV & Virgin rather than Amazon or CD-WOW.  And as the Pulp albums weren't that well stocked, a chart position was unlikely.  However the sales figures would be, but god knows where to find them.
