Adele bests Pink Floyd, Beatles with #1 album

Posted January 21, 2012 by Floydian Slip

Adele‘s “21” album has now remained at the #1 position on the Billboard 200 chart for 16 weeks.

The move puts the British soul singer ahead of Pink Floyd and The Beatles who both had albums spend 15 weeks at #1: “The Wall” (1979) and “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” (1967), respectively.

Adele now holds the record for longest-running U.S. chart-topping album by a British artist.

You’ve won this round, Adele …
