It's Official: LED ZEPPELIN To Top Billboard Charts!

June 4, 2003

LED ZEPPELIN's new live three-CD set, "How the West Was Won", will debut at #1 on next week's Billboard albums chart, having sold more than 150,000 copies, according to SoundScan. The package features songs recorded during four 1972 concerts in California. The two-disc DVD released the same day, "Led Zeppelin", sailed to the top slot on the video chart, having sold almost 120,000 copies, the most ever for a music DVD in its debut week.

STAIND's "14 Shades of Grey", which debuted at #1 last week, will drop to #7 with sales of nearly 79,000. And the former #2 charters DEFTONES will watch their self-titled fourth record drop to #11 with sales of just 56,000, about one-third of last week's figure.

MARILYN MANSON's "The Golden Age of Grotesque" will fall nine more slots to #30 after debuting at #1 three weeks ago, POWERMAN 5000's "Transform" will plummet 42 to #59 in its second week and COLD's "Year of the Spider" dips 11 to #40.
