Dolly Parton Prevents Swapping One Top Chart Position for Another in Her Favor
Last week, Dolly Parton and her family claimed the top spot on the Official Country Compilations chart in the UK with the release of their album, Smoky Mountain DNA: Family, Faith, and Fables. This set has been holding strong, refusing to budge, preventing another one of Parton's chart-topping compilations from taking the throne.
In a near miss, The Very Best Of by Parton surged up the charts, landing at the second spot. This collection of the singer-songwriter's iconic tunes is no stranger to the top position, having spent an impressive 61 weeks in first place on the Official Country Compilations chart.
If circumstances had been slightly different, Parton might have replaced her own album at No. 1. However, she ends up blocking her own return to the summit, keeping a fan-favorite compilation from grabbing the top spot.
Parton's dominance in the top 10 hasn't gone unnoticed. She currently occupies 40% of this tier, with yet another compilation, Diamonds and Rhinestones, stepping up to No. 5.
Meanwhile, an older collection from Parton reemerged on the Official Country Compilations chart this week. The Monument Singles Collection 1964 - 68 made a comeback at No. 6, having already claimed the No. 1 spot in the past.
