In Southern California, It’s a 19-Way Tie

Shaggy, the Backstreet Boys, U2, Jennifer Lopez and Incubus are all part of a 19-way tie this week for No. 1 on the Southern California album chart. Well, to be more precise, each of those artists is among the 19 acts featured on the sixth volume of “Now That’s What I Call Music,” a series that collects recent hit songs into one handy-dandy disc. On the singles chart--both in So Cal and nationally--the top five songs are unchanged from last week, with Janet Jackson leading the hit parade with “All for You.”
