It took just three days for Taylor Swift's Evermore to break the record for the biggest sales week for a vinyl album in the U.S.
Billboard reports the vinyl edition of Swift's Evermore sold over 40 thousand copies between Friday and Sunday, topping the previous record, held by the debut of Jack White's Lazaretto in 2014 and marking the biggest week since MRC Data -- formerly known as SoundScan -- began tracking music sales in 1991.
