Sales of Jackson's extensive back catalogue have soared since his death on 25 June (09), with his pop hits topping charts in the U.S. and U.K.
And Europe is no different - a further four compilation discs feature in the new top 10 albums countdown: King of Pop is at number two; The Essential at number four; Number Ones at seven, and The Motown Years at 10.
The superstar's classic Thriller album is also a big seller at number nine.
Meanwhile, rapper Pitbull is dancing away at the top of the European singles chart - I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho) remains in pole position for a third consecutive week.
The Black Eyed Peas score a double whammy with I Gotta Feeling at two and Boom Boom Pow at four, while DJ David Guetta and Kelly Rowland's hit When Love Takes Over slips from two to three.
