Experts say UK vinyl record sales will break 30-year records in 2021. This is due to the active demand for new albums by the Swedish ABBA quartet and the British singer Adele. This is stated on the website of the British Phonogram Producers Association (BPI).
It is noted that more than five million records have already been sold since the beginning of the year. And this is 8% more than last year as a whole.
The first album in 40 years by ABBA became the bestseller in 2021 Voyage, bought it in the first week 30 thousand copies. This figure exceeded the sales of all vinyl albums in the 21st century.
Also among the leaders were the new albums of Adele and Ed Sheeran and the reissued album 15 years after the premiere of Amy Winehouse Back To Black and the 1977 album Rumours the classics of rock – the group Fleetwood Mac.
Meanwhile, CD sales in the world are rapidly declining. This has been happening for 17 years.
