The album sold 196,000 copies in its first week, according to sales figures compiled by Nielsen SoundScan. With her latest hit, Streisand also became the only female artist to grab the No. 1 spot on the Billboard album chart on 10 different occasions. She now holds fourth place on the list of acts with the most No. 1 albums, tailing The Beatles 19 chart-toppers, Jay Zs 13 records and Bruce Springsteens 11. Streisands first No. 1 album came almost exactly 50 years ago when People hit No. 1 on the chart dated Oct. 31, 1964, Billboard said. Partners features Streisand singing classic songs with male artists, such as New York State of Mind with Billy Joel, Somewhere with Josh Groban and People with Stevie Wonder. Streisand, 72, led a slew of new entries on the weekly Billboard 200 chart, which measures both physical and digital album sales. Rapper Chris Brown saw his latest album X enter the chart at No. 2 with sales of 145,000 copies.

The Endless River is a tribute to Rick Wright, the bands keyboardist who died in 2008, the band said on its website. The album is primarily made up of music that Wright, guitarist David Gilmour and drummer Nick Mason put together during a session in 1993 that led to the last studio album, 1994s The Division Bell. The band have spent the last year recording and upgrading the music, using the advantages of modern studio technology to create The Endless River, the website said. Pink Floyd is one of the most successful bands in rock history. According to Billboard, its 1973 Dark Side album is estimated to have sold more than 45 million copies worldwide. The bands style - epitomized by other 1970s releases such as Wish You Were Here and The Wall - was cutting edge for its era, mixing soft and heavy rock with philosophical lyrics and pioneering electronic sounds. The band also is known for its revolutionary light shows and ethereal album artwork.
