Historically, when we talk about total chart domination, we talk about The Beatles, the Bee Gees and Abba. Those were the days when one act could have multiple hits in the chart at the same time.
Add Andre Rieu to that category. Not since The Beatles, Abba and the Bee Gees has anyone owned a chart like Rieu does today.On this week's Australian DVD chart, Andre Rieu has the No. 1 DVD 'Live In Vienna'.
He is also at No's 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12, 13, 14,16, 22, 23, 24, 29 and 38.
Andre Rieu this week has 15 DVD's in the Top 40.
He sold a total of 9,569 units in the Top 40. That is 2,626 units more than Jack Johnson's no. 1 album or 50.46% of the Top 40 DVDs.
It might all make sense if Andre Rieu really was a pop star. He is not. He is a 58 year old violinist and conductor.
Rieu will tour Australia in November.
