Brad Paisley holds on to the top spot of the Nielsen SoundScan charts this week with 39,203 in sales, beating Taylor Swift's debut by barely 5,000 units. Paisley's album has sold more than 377,000 units total.
Tracy Lawrence had the week's best country debut with The Very Best of Tracy Lawrence (#29, 4,600 units). Also debuting this week: Cole Deggs & the Lonesome (#42, 3,200) and Jason Meadow's 100% Cowboy (#59, 1,600).
An appearance on the CBS Early Show was good for Ricky Skaggs and Bruce Hornsby, bringing their album of collaborations back onto the country chart for the first time since May. That album more than doubled its sales from the previous week and was one of only a handful of country albums that increased sales from the previous week. Others that got a sales bump: Tim McGraw's Let It Go (+4%) and Vol. 2-Greatest Hits (+7%), Trent Tomlinson's Country Is My Rock (+2%), Craig Morgan's Little Bit of Life. Big & Rich's Comin' to Your City and Montgomery Gentry's Something to Be Proud Of each sold three more copies than they had the week before, while Gary Allan did one better for his Greatest Hits album than he had the previous week.
