[h=3]1000 Weeks[/h][h=4]Posted by [email=alb(at)pinkfloyd.net]alb[/email] on Jun 7, 2011[/h]The Dark Side of the Moon has re-entered the Billboard Catalog Album chart this week, coming in at a respectable #47. This marks the 1,000th week DSoTM has found itself listed on the Billboard charts. Considering the album was released in 1973, that the album would even came close to charting is impressive enough, let alone this amazing total of 1,000 weeks (with some 700+ weeks being consecutive). Congratulations, Pink Floyd!
