Title: Comprehensive 64-pages study on Rolling Stones Charts & Sales
Post by MJD on Dec 4th, 2016 at 2:08pm
Hello everyone!

I'm new here so I hope I'm not doing something wrong elseway please let me know. I haven't found a sticky thread about Charts & Sales of the Rolling Stones so I'm creating this one to share this 64-pages study reviewing completely the band full discography of albums, compilations, music videos, live records, physical singles, downloads and streaming.

Read the full article from this link

The conclusion points out how although their best seller, Some Girls isn't their most popular album overall as it is topped by Sticky Fingers, Let It Bleed and Aftermath, each of which generated roughly 20 million equivalent album sales through all formats!

For those interested, the site also provides similar breakdowns for other acts like Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac or Bob Dylan.

Some amazing numbers there; they were still a major selling act in the 90s - 6.4 million VL, 4 million Stripped, 5.5 Babylon..

Very impressive piece of work, MJD. I've been to Paris once and it was beautiful. I live in sunny and hot FL, USA where the Atlantic Ocean temp and the air temp is 85 degrees F almost year round. So are you male or female?

Other Releases: sales of compilations generated thanks to the album
Physical Singles: sales of physical singles extracted from the album
Download Singles: sales of digital singles extracted from the album
Streaming: equivalent album sales of all the album tracks
