While the biggest seller in vinyl in the US is Taylor Swift’s 1989, Noel Gallagher is dominating 2015 overseas. One of my fave albums, Chasing Yesterday is topping both the vinyl sales chart and vinyl singles of 2015 so far. The highest-placed album by a woman, or an act including women, is Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black, at No 18.
