Also new at the midway point, Midpoint, the third studio effort from Keane frontman Tom Chaplin. It’s on track for a No. 3 start.

Meanwhile, former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett could grab a top 5 debut with Genesis Revisited Live – Seconds Out & More, new at No. 4 on the midweek survey. The 72-year-old singer, songwriter and record producer already has 12 U.K. Top 40 albums to his name.

Finally, Foo Fighters’ career retrospective Best Of You – Greatest Hits leaps 30 spots to No. 32 on the chart blast, following the Foos’ all-star tribute to the band’s late drummer Taylor Hawkins, who died away earlier this year aged 50.

The tribute concert at London’s Wembley Stadium last Saturday (Sept. 3) featured performances from members of Metallica, Queen, Paul McCartney, AC/DC, plus Nile Rodgers and Liam Gallagher and a cameo on drums by Hawkins’ son Shane.

Best of You peaked at No. 4 following its original release in 2004.

The Official U.K. Albums Chart is published late Friday.
