Wilbury's #1

As Rihanna starts her fifth week at the top of the singles chart with "Umbrella" featuring Jay-Z (Def Jam), there's a surprise name at No. 1 on the album bestsellers list. The Traveling Wilburys' "Collection" (Rhino/Warner Bros.), a compilation of the erstwhile supergroup's two original studio albums and other material, enters at No. 1.

WOW!
I would never had thought that in a million years!

In other news Ringo Starr has signed with EMI!! The deal which covers digital releases of his older catalogue - it also brings him back to the EMI stable for future recordings. His next solo album, "Liverpool 8," is due in January; a CD/DVD best-of, "Photograph," arrives Aug. 28 and features music recorded between 1970 and 2005.

good times indeed! All we're missing this year is a John release :-)
