The Top 10 Country Albums: August 14, 2018

There weren't any major changes to the best-selling country albums this week. See the entire rundown here!

Kenny Chesney debuted last week at #1 with Songs For The Saints and this week he -- again -- sits at #1 with the album which features "Get Along" and new single "Better Boat." The album more than doubles what #2 album Rearview Town from Jason Aldean sold last week. #3's album is Luke Combs' This One's For You (Too), an album which has sold 289,000 actual copies to date (and remains one of the best streaming albums in all genres). The Now Country 11 collection has scanned 52,000 copies thus far, proving again that people love to buy compilation albums in a land of streaming. Chris Stapleton has three of the Top 10 albums (#5, #9, and #10). Sitting at #6 is Kane Brown's self-titled debut while Dierks Bentley and Keith Urban sit at #7 & 8, respectively.

Last week's #2 Cody Jinks is at #11 and is followed on the notable charts by Kid Rock, Dan + Shay, Brett Young, Brothers Osborne, Caroline jones, Kacey Musgraves, Midland, Dustin COllins, Kelsea Ballerini, Scotty McCreary, John Prine, Lori McKenna, Old Dominion and more!

    it's sad to see Shania's album Now struggling to reach 250,000 sold in the US where is it was certified platinum in Canada on release date 10 1/2 months ago it sold 76,000 in Canada it's first week and should be nearly double platinum now 160,000 cert levels were decreased on May 1st 2008 40.000 Gold 80,000 platinum 800,000 diamond 1.600.000 2 x diamond etc as for example Adele's 2011 album 21 should be at least 21 x platinum in Ca now granted that album is in need of updates in several countries Including UK 17 x platinum US 15 x platinum 4 x diamond in France etc
