Elsewhere in the Top 10, a 40th anniversary expanded edition of The Rolling StonesTattoo You (Polydor) charts at #7 and the debut EP from Mimi Webb, Seven Shades of Heartbreak (Epic), opens at #9. Prioritise Pleasure (Universal) by Self Esteem is new at #11.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart, Adele’s “Easy on Me” (Columbia) remains at #1 for a second week with 103k sales, including 11m streams.
