TWGMTR makes it to Billboard Top 200 Year-End Album Chart

#192...not bad, considering the hundreds of thousands of albums eligible to chart (catalog items are eligible to chart as well).

Agree -  for an album that charted so briefly this ain't a bad showing at all.

Nice spot!

Hahahahahah Dark Side Of The Moon made the spot under at #193. I understand that this album is a solid album but the way it continuously sells in such quantities is quite remarkable! I mean, who would consider that album to be one of the 'best'? I guess its easy listening for many...

It was recently reissued in about 47 different formats though, which might account for its current reshowing.  I got the raspberry ripple deluxe edition with chocolate sprinkles.

There were several other catalog titles that made it even higher...Bob Marley's Legend is one of them.

This is truly a surprise. Is Tempest in there?

It charted at 137 for the year.

 Paul McCartney's 2012 standards album "Kisses On The Bottom" was 132 for the year.

Pretty good showing..

The album did well, especially considering the promotion was brief. Both from the band and the label

very good point. Given the fact that most of the album was just fluff anyway it did suprisingly well!

Yep. I was one of the ill-informed who thought they'd be working that album all year long.
