Glee Tops Billboard 200 Chart

It's all about "The Power of Madonna" this week on the Billboard 200 albums chart where the soundtrack from last week's Madonna-themed episode of Fox TV's "Glee" debuts at No. 1 with 98,000 copies sold according to Nielsen SoundScan.

The Power of Madonna" is the third album release from "Glee," but the first to reach No. 1. "Glee Season One: The Music Volume 1" peaked at No. 4 last November with a 113,000 debut week and then "Volume 2" bowed (and peaked) at No. 3 the following month with 173,000 in its premiere frame. Combined, the first two volumes have now sold 1.4 million.
