Jack White has come top in the list of the best-selling vinyl releases of the past year.
The former White Stripes man released his solo record Blunderbuss at the end of April and still managed to place higher than any other LP throughout 2012.
The record finally knocked The Beatles’ Abbey Road off the top spot for the first time in three years.
Blunderbuss, released on Third Man/Columbia, sold just over 33,000 copies on the 12″ format.
It’s also been nominated for three Grammy awards.
