OH, BARRY, YOU CAME AND YOU GAVE WITHOUT TAKING

It's been twenty-nine years since Barry Manilow last had a number one album in the US. Twenty-nine long years, a time period in which Barry has seen stars come, discover a taste for coke snorted off the tits of a showgirl, and disappear again. Barry has bided his time...

... and now he's number one again. The great news for Barry is that his comeback album, The Greatest Hits of the 50s, suggests it might have at least five sequels waiting in the wings. Although the 90s collection might struggle a little to find enough to fill it.
