From Music Week:

After a bright start, helped by Morrissey’s appearances on Jonathan Ross and – more unexpectedly – The One Show, Years Of Refusal sold 39,203 copies to debut at number three. Morrissey’s 11th solo Top 10 album, it had a bigger opening week than his Greatest Hits album, which debuted at number five on sales of 27,873 last February but fell far short of both his last two studio albums, Ringleader Of The Tormentors, which opened at number one on sales of 63,709 in April 2006; and You Are The Quarry, which secured a number two debut on sales of 74,995 in May 2004.
