The Stones on the Billboard 200 this week:

128. ROLLING STONES A BIGGER BANG 28,513 +51% 451,545 -- 16 wks on chart
173. ROLLING STONES BEST OF... JUMP BACK 21,444 +52% 671,090 -- 57 wks on chart
200. ROLLING STONES RARITIES 1971-03 17,370 +44% 74,049 -- 4 wks on chart

67,327 copies sold from 3 albums

Thanks Georgelicks. I'm just curious...shouldn't you credit Soldatti for this thread and info? It looks just like the Rocks Off post. Or perhaps Soldatti and georgelicks are one and the same?

Either way, great numbers by Englands Newest Hitamkers.

I'm the same guy, lol.

Fantastic....all these months I thought we had plagirism going on.

It looks like ABB might actually crack half a million in the U.S. one of these days. It's a shame more people have bought this album, because it is excellent.

Of the 67,000+ records sold in the US last week....just over 40% was from A Bigger Bang
People want the old stuff...it's a shame, really, but the numbers don't lie.

Most of us have to choose btw tickets or CD. Does that that take into account the Christmas week.

Georgelicks, two questions

(A) What about the worldwide sales of the three albums?
( How many copies of "40 Licks" have been sold worldwide?

Thanks

I guess the superbowl performance will boost the sales of A Bigger Bang enormously.
Or maybe it will boost the wrong albums Jump Back or 40 Licks.
With wrong I mean... if they could chose they'd rather see ABB sell more.

Is there a place on the Internet where we can see the total TOP200 (without paying Billboard) ?

Nico

__________________________

Still don't see WHY they ever put out JUMP BACK! It is a hodge-podge of oldies, everyone already has them on other albums and it's the ONE Stones cd I won't buy! REDUNDANT!

>>(A) What about the worldwide sales of the three albums?
( How many copies of "40 Licks" have been sold worldwide?

ABB has sold 2.300,000 copies by now, Jump Back is on the 3.5 million and 40 Licks on 6.5 million.


>>Is there a place on the Internet where we can see the total TOP200 (without paying Billboard) ?

Sadly no, but the whole Top 200 is available on some sites every week, here the top 101-200 positions of this week:

Wow Paul McCartney has sold virtually the same number of albums as ABB. Guess the Stones should learn a lesson and realize when they sell crap, they won't move the volume, no matter how many cheesey tie-ins to sports events, soap operas, and whatnot. Wake me up when they learn how to play rock again!!

"You look like a leper dressed as Sergeant Pepper"

JamesBurton, just two points

(1) ABB rocks. If you want, you can refuse it of course- it's a matter of taste.

(2) ABB has sold 1 million copies more than Macca's album worldwide. You can't refuse this- simple numbers my friend...

THE ONLY REASON WHY ABB SOLD 1 MILLION MORE COPIES MORE THAN MACCA IS SIMPLY BECAUSE MACCA ONLY TARGETED THE US AND UK.

THE REST OF THE WORLD COULD ONLY GET THE IMPORT COPIES. CHAOS WAS NOT MARKETED OUTSIDE THE US OR THE UK.


IF MACCA WOULD HAVE MARKETED WORLDWIDE LIKE THE STONES, HE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE SOLD MORE.

and if my auntie had balls, she might have been my uncle....

ferrante, could you please stop yelling. Thanks.

Oh, ferrante9 is here...

A huge act, a famous artist like Macca is not marketed outside the US and UK! How do you explain this??

Another question for you ferrante9:

In 2005 the Stones attracted at their 42 concerts in North America 1.2 million of people. In 2006 they will do 14 more arena shows in N. America, that means more than 1.4m people. In 2005 Macca attracted only 570,000 people. How do you explain this??

Macca is the GENIUS.
