bud, without actualy looking it up I would believe that.
Keep in mind album sales drop every year, so while nost may be the highest ranked debut, it will have lower debut sales totals than certainly anything since BS, probably earlier. As I recall turbo was the first to go platinum, folowed by SFV. the rest probably needed the remaster issue to put them over the top.
At first I was thinking you guys no longer want to respond to my questions but now
I'm thinking the answer just isn't there. I've been searching for sales totals for Nostradamus
for nearly an hour. The only thing I found was first week sales. 42,000 copies to debut at no. 11
on Billboard. Supposedly, their highest debut ever. It's a little misleading though because they
say Angel of Retribution debuted at no. 13 yet it sold 58,000 copies in first week sales. I found a
list of platinum sales for Priest and Painkiller was not on it. Huhh??? I thought that was one of
their bigger sellers. I'm starting to not trust information from the web. (starting???).
This is what I found...
Platinum-
Screaming ...
Priest Live
Turbo
Defenders...
British Steel
Unleashed...
Gold-
Staind Class
Hell Bent...
Point of...
Ram it ...
Painkiller
I have trouble believing this to be accurate.
