Touch - 85 for 10 weeks, it too went up and down on the charts
FJ - 54, for 15 weeks
DR - 19, for 28 weeks. it too yoyo'd up and down the charts
Diana! - 46 for 15 weeks
EIE - 42 for 16 weeks
Surrender - 56 for 14 weeks. also yoyo'd
NW is a real conundrum. it just petered out so on the charts. it is unusual that NW and several other albums would climb the charts, hit some sort of peak, start to decline, then rebound and climb again. sometimes even surpassing that earlier peak.
NWs entry point of 165 was low but not unusual. the sup albums either entered in the mid 100s or else considerably ABOVE 100. GIT entered at 61, Farewell at 54, RO at 37 whereas Reflections was 120, TOTT 138 Join the Tempts 200, LC 158.
But NW just didn't make those jumps. it's possible that the market was flooded between Nov 69 and Dec 70 we had Together, Cream, GIT, GH3, Farewell, RO, Mag7, NW, Diana solo and EIE. that's a shit ton of material if you're a fan of the girls.
