The gold records
Some of my favorite FM albums have not turned platinum or have been the least commercial successful.
1980 Live Album
Heroes Are Hard To Find
Mystery To Me
Behind the Mask
Say You Will
Its interesting because albums like Penguin and Bare Trees turned platinum but Mystery To Me and Heroes never did come close. Why do you think that is?
IMHO the band got better and better each album before Stevie and Lindsey and each album also charted better yet those are still not platinum.
I did a little research for this thread and sales figures are all over the place because some of them count international sales. I apologize if my quick research is wrong.
My favorite FM albums are the ones that sold 4 million or less and that would include Tusk, Mirage and the ones I mentioned already. I did not count the EP or other stuff prior to 1970.
Tango which is the band's second biggest seller is one of my least favorite albums.
