Jimi Hendrix Breaks Elvis Presley's Posthumous Billboard Charts Record

http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/chart_watch/45886/week-ending-marc...

The Jimi Hendrix Experience's Valleys Of Neptune enters The Billboard 200 at #4,
putting the rock legend back in the top five nearly 40 years after he
died at the tragically young age of 27. No other artist has cracked the
top five this long after his death. Elvis Presley is in second place. His Elvis:
2nd To None
debuted at #3 in October 2003, a little more than 26
years after his death.

Nah, that wasn't true. The bottom pretty much fell out all by itself. After Kurt's death we pretty much knew the party was over.
