Mid-Weeks

YOUR TOP 15: Mumford & Sons remains on top of the chart next week--a week that is utterly bereft of debuts. But Alabama Shakes, on the heels of their Saturday Night Live performance, take a huge leap up the chart, possibly into the Top 5. Here's how it looks headed into the weekend:

Mumford & Sons (Glassnote) 60-65k
Josh Groban (Reprise) 50-55k
Bruno Mars (Atlantic) 40-45k
Now 45 (Capitol) 35-40k
Alabama Shakes (ATO) 35-40k
Lumineers (Dualtone) 30-35k
2013 Grammy Nominees (Capitol) 28-32k
Rihanna (Def Jam/IDJ) 28-32k
Fun. (Fueled By Ramen) 24-27k
Tim McGraw (Big Machine) 24-27k
Taylor Swift (Big Machine) 24-27k
Pitch Perfect (UMe) 23-26k
Imagine Dragons (Interscope) 22-25k
Andrea Bocelli (Verve) 21-24k
Alicia Keys (RCA) 21-24k
Adele (XL/Columbia) 21-24k

And speaking of predicting things going into the weekend, any tips for our Oscar pool? I've got a fin riding on the dude with the beard. (2/21p)
