Eminem's "Recovery" (Interscope/Universal) started its fourth aggregate week at No. 1 on the U.K. album chart yesterday (July 25), as "We Speak No Americano" (Sweat It Out/All Around The World/UMTV) by Yolanda Be Cool & Dcup moved 2-1 on the singles chart.



"Recovery" has now had two separate two-week runs atop the album listing, separated by a week at No. 2. Last year, Eminem's "Relapse" started with two weeks at No. 1, while 2005's "Curtain Call" compilation spent its first five weeks at the summit.



London rapper Professor Green followed his current hit single "Just Be Good To Green" (Virgin/EMI), featuring Lily Allen (which dipped 5-7 on the new chart) with a No. 2 entry for his debut album "Alive Till I'm Dead." Plan B's former No. 1 "The Defamation of Strickland Banks" (679/ Atlantic/Warner Music) climbed 4-3, while its current single "Prayin'" improved 17-16, and previous hit "She Said" moved back 33-25.

South by Southwest drew to a close on a rare rainy, frigid Saturday (March 20) in Austin, Tx.



The late Alex Chilton was memorialized by colleagues, friends and admirers on Saturday at South By Southewest -- with words and, most importantly, with music.



Following a warmly reverent and nostalgic afternoon panel at the Austin Convention Center -- with Big Star co-founders Jody Stephens and Andy Hummel, latter-day members Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow, original producer John Frye and others -- Big Star's scheduled showcase at Antone's was turned into a kind of musical wake for Chilton, with numerous guests taking turns during the 80-minute show.
