Kylie Minogue scores the highest new entry on the Official Irish Albums Chart with Step Back In Time

Kylie Minogue scores the highest new entry on the Official Irish Albums Chart.

The Australian star’s new greatest hits collection Step Back In Time – The Definitive Collection debuts at Number 4 following Kylie’s legends slot performance at Glastonbury Festival. Kylie was last on the Irish Top 50 just over a year ago when her fourteenth studio album Golden peaked at Number 2.

After two weeks away from the top spot, Lewis Capaldi climbs back to Number 1 with Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, replacing last week’s chart-topper Western Stars from Bruce Springsteen (2).

There are new entries for The Black Keys with their ninth album Let’s Rock which becomes their third consecutive Top 10, landing at Number 10, and Chris Brown’s ninth studio record Indigo opens at Number 23.

Ahead of their Croke Park shows this weekend, Westlife’s Greatest Hits vaults 12 to Number 13, while The Beatles’ retrospective 1 storms 17 positions to Number 19 following the release of the film Yesterday based on their music.

Finally, the Glastonbury Festival effect causes an uplift for four more acts; The Killers’ Direct Hits rises 48 places (21), fellow headliner Stormzy charges 68 placings with Gang Signs & Prayer (31), Lizzo advances 21 ranks with Cuz I Love You (43), and Dave rebounds back into the Top 50 with Psychodrama (44).
