MICHAEL JACKSON continues to rule over the European albums chart, dominating the top 10 with six entries as the aptly-titled compilation CD KING OF POP sits at number one.

  Sales of the late superstar’s back catalogue have surged in the weeks since his death on 25 June (09) and his hits are still proving popular across the world.

  Four other Jackson compilations feature in the continent’s top 10 - The Essential is in second place, The Collection climbs to number four, The Motown Years is at seven and Number Ones is at nine on the new countdown.

  The biggest selling album of all time, Thriller, claims the third spot.
