ARIA Chart: Chisel makes it four Aussie #1s in four weeks

Cold Chisel has landed at #1 with its latest best-of compilation, marking 50 years since the formation of the band.

This also marks Chisel’s fifth #1 with a best-of compilation (they also scored a #1 with a rarities collection Teenage Love), and makes it four different Aussie acts that have debuted at top spot with an album over the past four weeks.
