Hi all!
I open this thread to keep you updated on current CSPC works. As I mentioned in a previous comment, we will not be able to make it for this Christmas for Bing Crosby, so we will post him next year.
Currently I'm dealing with Seventeen numbers, they will be posted in December. Also started are both EXO and Pearl Jam, they shouldn't take too long either.
For now I'm not planning comprehensive updates, instead I'll try to add sales figures for recent albums from old CSPC articles.
Small updates:
- as seen in the Analysis section of the site, Seventeen has been posted
- EXO sales figures are completed at our end, should be online over the next days as we finish streaming retrieval and writing.
- we will mostly work on Pearl Jam next week
Just wondering,
Any plan to update ABBA? Would an update of their 2016 analysis make their numbers jump fairly higher?
They are not planned so far, not sure they would increase all that much to be honest as I remember already dealing with their off radar comps like the K-Tel ones in the US, as well as their Eastern releases. Also, disco-era artists never got releases through series. Obviously estimates would be thiner and more accurate overall if re-done now, but that can go both sides really!
As for other news, Pearl Jam's sales are finished, time to complete the tracklists of their comps and retrieve their streams now. Also, I did not communicate about it as the articles weren't updated entirely, but over the last weeks many pure album sales were added for new releases (big recent sellers plus some new CSPC releases like the last albums from Dua Lipa or Coldplay). That way the 'Top Albums' screens is more accurate, as well as some CSPC totals.
