Figures from RIAA and Soundscan, as of December, 2006.
Pre-Soundscan era:
Future Games (1971, Gold)
Bare Trees (1972, 1x Platinum)
Mystery to Me (1973, Gold)
Fleetwood Mac (1975, 8x Platinum)
Rumours (1977, 19x Platinum)
Tusk (1979, 2x Platinum)
Live (1980, Gold)
Mirage (1982, 2x Platinum)
Tango in the Night (1987, 3x Platinum)
Greatest Hits (1988, 8x Platinum)
Behind the Mask (1990, Gold)
Soundscan era:
"25 Years: The Chain" (a Fleetwood Mac box set, 1992; 79,000)
"The Dance" (Fleetwood Mac, 1997; 4.4 million)
"The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac" (2002; 1.1 million)
"Say You Will" (Fleetwood Mac, 2003; 853,000)
Live in Boston is listed as platinum, but no sales figures are provided. So Fleetwood Mac has sold at least 50 million albums in the United States alone. If you include worldwide figures, the total would probably be close to 100 million. Not too shabby.
