Released over the weekend on August 20, the LP is currently exclusive to Apple Music and collected over 4,000 combined sales ahead of his nearest rival, Dolly Parton, with 43rd studio record 'Pure & Simple'.

Today's Official Chart Update's top three is completed with David Brent's Life On The Road. It's the soundtrack for the new Ricky Gervais movie and is recorded entirely by the character Brent and his band, Foregone Conclusion.

Rounding off the top five are ELO with 'All Over The World' and Bob Marley with 'Legend'.

Over on the Official Singles Chart, Major Lazer and DJ Snake continue their battle for the top spot.

'Cold Water' is looking close to taking a fifth consecutive week at number 1, but DJ Snake's 'Let Me Love You' could dethrone the huge track. Calum Scott looks set to stick at number 3 with his 'Dancing On My Own' cover, whilst Chainsmokers are at both 4 and 5 with 'Closer' featuring Halsey, and 'Don't Let Me Down' featuring Daya.

Ellie Goulding looks to score the highest new entry of the week with 'Still Falling For You' and Charlie Puth has done well with his Selena Gomez collaboration, rising seven places to 16 with 'We Don't Talk Anymore'.
