Dion Double Dips With Single, Album

Celine Dion has a share of the No. 1 spot in Southern California on two sales charts, with her holiday collection topping the album chart and her duet with R. Kelly ruling the singles division. The album chart also demonstrates the favorite-son factor, with Compton rapper DJ Quik debuting in the Southern California Top 10 with an album that registered only No. 63 nationwide.
