Who sells out?
Title: Mensagem
I was watching MTV
Brazil and there was this discussion about the 40 million copies Michael
Jackson sold of "Thriller". So I was wondering how many copies The Who sold till
this very day. From "Tommy" to "It's Hard", all albuns have achieved gold status
in USA, but I have no idea of Who's sales in Europe, for example. Here, in
Brazil, all of their titles, from "Tommy" till "BBC Sessions", have been
released, so I guess, somehow, they achieve good numbers way down south,
too. Dave
Marsh's book says they've sold some 10 million copies from Tommy along the
years; the Time mag, in their 'Cincinatti' edition, said they had sold 20
million records till that day (1979).
Obviously, selling
out a record does not mean it's got any artistic quality, but does
anybody
have any clue? I mean, where can we find Who's sales
numbers?
