For decades now, Bob Marley and the Wailers’ compilation Legend has been one of the top-selling albums in multiple markets. Each week, sometimes hundreds – and in some instances thousands of people – purchase the project. After streaming began impacting charts, Legend became a constant fixture on multiple rosters, as people continue to listen to the reggae superstar any way they can.

In the United Kingdom, Legend always appears on multiple tallies, and this frame is no different, though it does stand out as a meaningful one. This time around, the compilation makes it to a milestone that only a handful of other albums have ever even approached.

Bob Marley’s Legend Reaches 1,200 Weeks

On the Official Albums chart — the 100-spot ranking of the most consumed full-lengths and EPs in the U.K. — Legend dips from No. 44 to No. 52. As it descends, it reaches 1,200 weeks on the all-encompassing and hugely competitive roster.

Bob Marley Follows Only ABBA

It appears that only one other title has reached 1,200 weeks on the Official Albums chart. ABBA’s Gold – Greatest Hits is up to 1,215 turns on the tally.

Queen Follows Close Behind

Queen’s Greatest Hits has racked up 1,168 weeks on the ranking. Multiple versions of that compilation have landed on the list, so when they are all combined, that number soars much higher – although the Official Charts Company does count all versions as separate entities.

Fleetwood Mac May be the Next Addition to this Club

Just one other full-length has managed at least 1,000 frames on the Official Albums chart so far. Rumours, the Fleetwood Mac classic, has earned 1,111 stays. Other editions of the set, including The Alternate Rumours and Rumours Live, have also reached the chart separately. Since Rumours is still hundreds of weeks away from matching the figure that Legend hits this time around, it seems unlikely that any project will make it to 1,200 frames for several years.

A Dozen Weeks at No. 1 for Legend

Legend debuted on the Official Albums chart in May 1984. The compilation launched at No. 1 and held there for an even dozen frames. Throughout its lifetime, Legend has only collected 35 stays inside the top 10. For most albums, that would be an incredible performance, but for a project that has now managed 1,200, it’s actually a fairly small figure.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

PANews reported on September 18th, according to the Securities Times, that at 2:00 AM Beijing time on September 18th, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate from 4.25%-4.50% to 4.00%-4.25%, in line with market expectations. The Fed's interest rate announcement triggered a sharp market reaction, with the three major US stock indices rising briefly before quickly plunging. The US dollar index plummeted, briefly hitting a new low since 2025, before rebounding sharply, turning a decline into an upward trend. The sharp market volatility was closely tied to the subsequent monetary policy press conference held by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. He stated that the 50 basis point rate cut lacked broad support and that there was no need for a swift adjustment. Today's move could be viewed as a risk-management cut, suggesting the Fed will not enter a sustained cycle of rate cuts. Powell reiterated the Fed's unwavering commitment to maintaining its independence. Market participants are currently unaware of the risks to the Fed's independence. The latest published interest rate dot plot shows that the median expectation of Fed officials is to cut interest rates twice more this year (by 25 basis points each), one more than predicted in June this year. At the same time, Fed officials expect that after three rate cuts this year, there will be another 25 basis point cut in 2026 and 2027.
