Lynyrd Skynyrd still commands a massive fan base in the U.S. to this day. From die-hard supporters who would call the rockers among their favorites to casual listeners who only know a song or two, everyone who likes the band’s music is helping them rise on a number of Billboard charts this week.
All Time Greatest Hits by Lynyrd Skynyrd is up on a trio of rankings published by Billboard. The compilation has been charting for years, and not only is it not slowing down, it’s actually improving–both in terms of where the set lands on a handful of lists, but also when looking at how many units it’s shifted.
Lynyrd Skynyrd’s compilation leaps nearly 20 spots on the Billboard 200 this week. That’s one of the most impressive gains on the ranking of the most-consumed albums in the U.S. It’s notable that the rockers’ project is still present, but it’s especially worth pointing out that it shoots as high and as far as it does this frame.
This week, All Time Greatest Hits improves from No. 134 to No. 115. The compilation moved another 10,088 equivalent units in the U.S., according to Luminate. That sum is up nearly 6% from the period prior.
Lynyrd Skynyrd’s collection of beloved singles only climbs one rung on two of Billboard’s rock charts. The project steps up to No. 26 on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums list. It’s comfortable at No. 22 on the Top Rock Albums roster this frame.
All Time Greatest Hits was released in 2000, and since then, it has risen and fallen on and off the Billboard charts, though it never stays away for too long when it vanishes. It only rose as high as No. 56 on the Billboard 200, which is somewhat surprising, as it’s managed to live on the tally for just under five years–a milestone that is quickly approaching.
