Chart Watch America: Chart of December 3, 2011
- Classic crooner Tony Bennett is replaced by another veteran pop singer as Frank Sinatra debuts at 23 with Sinatra: Best of the Best. The album is the first to include tracks from both his Capitol and Reprise catalogs.
- Two various artists albums debut well with the Starbucks exclusive Let It Snow starting at 45 and the U2 tribute album (Ahk-toong Bay-bi) Covered premiering at 53.
- The R.E.M. career retrospective Part Lies, Part Heart, Part Truth, Part Garbage 1982-2011 debuts at 55. Like the Sinatra set, it is the first time that tracks from both their I.R.S. and Warner Brothers catalogs have appeared together on an album.
- Someday we will understand how Billboard determines what is new and one is a return to the charts for an album. The recent deluxe edition of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon came on as a return, adding to the existing number of weeks for the album. This week, though, the Who's Quadrophenia, now in a deluxe edition, is considered a first time debut at 100.
- Tony Bennett scores a second album on the Top 200 as The Classic Christmas Album debuts at 169.
- The last debut for the week is down at 197 with the first appearance in 23 years on the top 200 for Betty Wright. The new album, Betty Wright: The Movie, is her collaboration with the Roots and her first charting album since 1988's Mother Wit.
