Bon Jovi at No. 1 again, after nearly two decades
With 292,000 copies sold during its first week in stores, Bon Jovi's country-tinged "Lost Highway" tops this week's US album chart, marking the New Jersey quartet's first No. 1 set since 1988's "New Jersey."
The White Stripes check in at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 chart with "Icky Thump," thanks to first-week sales of 223,000, while Brad Paisley's "5th Gear" enters the chart at No. 3 with 197,000 sold.
Last week's No. 1 album, Toby Keith's "Big Dog Daddy," slips to No. 4 with 73,000 sold, according to Billboard, which bases its chart on Nielsen SoundScan retail reports. Paul McCartney's "Memory Almost Full" falls two rungs to No. 5 on sales of 64,000.
Filling out the Top 10 are Linkin Park's "Minutes to Midnight," Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black," Maroon 5's "It Won't Be Soon Before Long," Fabolous' "From Nothin' to Somethin'" and T-Pain's "Epiphany."
