Adele's '21', '19' hold strong in Ireland

Adele's grip on the Irish album chart remains strong this week, as both 21 and 19 retain their respective positions.

The new entry pushes both Mary Byrne and Jessie J down one place each with Mine & Yours and Who You Are. American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez scores a top 10 debut with her new album Love?, as it enters the chart at number seven.

The Beastie Boys also debut at number 12 with Hot Sauce Committee: Part Two. Along with an impressive climb in the singles chart, The National jump ten places to 23 with High Violet.

Fleetwood Mac reap the benefits of this week's episode of Glee, as their Rumours LP re-enters the chart at number 30.

Meanwhile, royal wedding reception performer Ellie Goulding continues to climb up the chart again with her album Lights - it enjoys a further 12-spot jump to number 25.
