Title: Sinatra Soars Past the Beatles with His Latest Chart-Topping Album
Every December, Frank Sinatra's holiday tunes see a surge in popularity, propelling his timeless recordings to the top of charts worldwide. This year, his compilation album, Ultimate Christmas, has surpassed The Beatles to claim the third-highest number of top 10 Billboard 200 entries in U.S. history.
According to Billboard, Ultimate Christmas now ranks at No. 10, marking Sinatra's 33rd top 10 entry. Though his cumulative count on the publication's internal artist success list is lower, at a dozen, it's enough to edge out The Beatles' 32 entries.
The Beatles, with their 32 top 10s, remain formidable, but they've yet to add to their tally. Sinatra's recent success indicates that with the right project, they could potentially break their streak. Meanwhile, The Rolling Stones continue to lead all acts with an impressive 38 top 10 U.S. albums. Barbra Streisand follows closely with 34 entries, just one spot ahead of Sinatra.
In the past week, Ultimate Christmas gained over 50% in equivalent units, reaching 63,100. This growth stems from the holiday season's peak in streaming and sales. This compilation isn't limited to the Billboard 200; it's also a hit on Top Streaming Albums, climbing to No. 8, and breaking into the top 10 on both the Jazz Albums and Traditional Jazz Albums charts, moving up from No. 4 to No. 3.
