Album Sweep: January 18, 2014...


It's time for my weekly rundown of the albums making their first appearance on the Top 200 Albums chart in Billboard magazine this week.

The soundtrack to the Disney animated movie Frozen takes over the #1 spot on the albums charts this week, selling over 130,000 copies....

In this slow post-holiday chart, the top "debut" doesn't show up until #58, and it's a holiday remainder item from lite-jazz artist Jim Brickman with The Magic Of Christmas. He's had one top-40 album with Picture This went to #30 in 1997...

On the same clearance-aisle vein, two sets from the toy section arrive on the chart with Barbie: Tis The Season To Sparkle! Holiday Mix at #80 and Fisher Price Kids Christmas: Holiday Sing-A-Long at #143...

The dance collection UKF Dubstep 2013 pops in at #189. It has tracks from Ellie Goulding, Sub Focus, Krewella, and more...


The Starbucks-exclusive Music For Little Hipsters crawls in at #190. It contains songs from the Beach Boys, Lisa Loeb, and more...


The final entry at #194 is from soul singer Aloe Blacc, the voice behind Avicii's international smash "Wake Me Up", with his own Wake Me Up EP...


That's it for today...I would pick up Aloe's and the UKF collection...
