It went straight to No. 1 on the US Billboard 200, reached No. 2 in the UK, his joint-highest UK album peak alongside Hotter Than July, and won the Grammy for Album of the Year, his third.
The record holds Sir Duke, I Wish, Isn't She Lovely and As. On the album's 50th birthday, 28 September 2026, he released four recordings from the original sessions that had never come out before.
