Paul McCartney’s latest studio album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, debuts in the top five on six Billboard charts (dated June 13), including a No. 1 arrival on Top Album Sales, Vinyl Albums and Indie Store Album Sales. The set also launches at No. 2 on Top Rock Albums, No. 2 on Top Rock & Alternative Albums and No. 5 on the overall Billboard 200.

The Boys of Dungeon Lane marks the 22nd top 10 for McCartney on the Billboard 200, inclusive of his solo top 10s and his albums with Wings. The Beatles, of which McCartney is a member, has 32 top 10s. The Fab Four scored its first top 10 on Feb. 8, 1964 with Meet the Beatles!

McCartney landed his first solo Billboard 200 top 10 more than 56 years ago, with his McCartney album on the May 16, 1970-dated chart. A living soloist last logged a longer top 10 span on the Oct. 16, 2021-dated survey, when Tony Bennett’s Love for Sale, with Lady Gaga, debuted at No. 8. It gave the then-95-year-old Bennett a 59-year top 10 stretch, dating to I Left My Heart in San Francisco in October 1962.

The Boys of Dungeon Lane earned 63,000 equivalent album units in the United States in its debut frame (week ending June 4), according to Luminate. The album’s sales (59,500) were bolstered by its availability across 18 physical variants, including more than 10 vinyl editions. Vinyl purchases accounted for 32,000 of the album’s opening-week sales.

All Billboard charts dated June 13 will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on June 9.

McCartney earned his first solo Billboard 200 top 10 a little over 56 years ago, when McCartney rose 14-3 on the May 16, 1970-dated chart; it peaked at No. 1 a week later (May 23, 1970).
