Living or dead, Johnny Hallyday remains number one.
A week after its release on October 23, the posthumous album,
His
American Dream
by Taulier was placed at the top of the Top Albums of the week.
This box set, which includes a live album, a documentary and the backstage of his tours, was sold 49,263 copies in its first week according to the National Union of Phonographic Publishing (SNEP).

His American dream
narrates the singer's last road trip in the country that has often inspired him, and the title itself is in the blues-rock vein, a real compass that guided Johnny Hallyday's career.
Among the pieces in the set we find in particular,
Deux kinds hommes
, recorded in 2014 and then removed from the album
Stay alive
.
The singer mirrors here, in this almost biographical song, his first years as a youth idol and his life marked by the throes of a career entirely dedicated to his musical career.
Johnny has quality dolphins.
Francis Cabrel is in second place with his album
À dawn returning
.
Koba LaD is placed on the last step of the podium with
Detail
.
Bruce Springsteen, Louane and 13 Organized complete the ranking of the ten best-selling albums of the week, physical, download and streaming combined.

On December 5, a few days before the third anniversary of his death, a new posthumous record will be released in stores.
Entitled
Act II
, it will include cover
versions
of the
Penitentiary
and
Laura.
