Headliners from last weekend’s Reading and Leeds Festivals are seeing a surge in sales: Post Malone’s Beerbongs & Bentleys is so far up three places to Number 25, and Foo Fighters’ Greatest Hits has climbed 6 places to 27. Finally, Texas trio Midland could claim their first UK Top 40 album with Let It Roll at 30, and Liverpool indie outfit The Night Café could see their debut album 0151 land in the Top 40, currently at Number 32.
