October 24 - Burning Hot Chart

Elvis Presley set to become most successful solo artist in UK chart history with his posthumous album with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra "The Wonder Of You" set to a possible chart debut at #1. The album has unexpectedly leapfrogged Michael Buble (who was featured on Elvis Presley's previous abum with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra) and Lady Gaga in the race for this week’s No 1.

If it holds on then he will defeat Madonna to become the solo star with the most No. 1 UK albums ever — bagging 13 in chart-toppers in total. Elvis Presley and Madonna are currently neck and neck on 12. While Michael Buble’s Nobody But You was tipped for the top after huge pre-orders, Elvis has sold close to 40,000 copies in the UK and soared ahead of Michael Buble by a couple of thousand copies.
