I went to Woolies yesterday and out of curiosity looked at the charts and Meat's Bat Out Of Hell II Back Into Hell album has topped the charts at a staggring No. 5, thirteen years after it's original release.
I found this incredible.

Are you sure they didn't just put it there in place of Bat 3 (that could have been out of stock or something) ??

It is historically proven that once a new record comes out...the old records often go back on charts...same happened I think with BOOH when BOOH II came out...

What I find interesting is that Pandora's Box CD is being re-released plus DVD at this time...interesting timing to say the least...

But is Woolies a proper name or does it have a proper name? I am just curious about something...

The F. W. Woolworth Company (often referred to as "Woolworth's") was a retail company that was one of the original American five-and-dime stores. The first Woolworth's store was founded in 1878 by Frank Winfield Woolworth. Despite growing to be one of the largest retail chains in the world through most of the 20th century, competition led to a decline beginning in the 1980s. In 1997, F. W. Woolworth Company converted itself into a sporting retailer, closing its remaining retail stores operating under the "Woolworth's" brand name and renaming itself Venator Group. By 2001, the firm focused exclusively into the sporting goods market, changing its name to the present Foot Locker Inc (NYSE: FL).

Chains using the Woolworth name survive in the United Kingdom, Germany, Mexico, and South Africa. The similarly named Woolworths supermarkets in Australia and New Zealand are operated by Woolworths Limited, a separate company with no historical links to the F. W. Woolworth Company.
