I always thought the White album sold more than Tango.

Yep, I was referring to studio albums, not "best of" packages.
Hayley's right... of the studio albums that featured Mick, John, Christine, Lindsey & Stevie, 'Fleetwood Mac' is the band's second biggest seller in the US (5 million).
('Tango' comes in third with 3 million, followed by 'Tusk' and 'Mirage,' with 2 million apiece. Of the other releases, 'Greatest Hits' has sold over 8 million, 'The Dance' over 5 million, 'The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac' has sold 1 million+, and 'Fleetwood Mac Live' has sold over 500,000 copies.)
However, if you factor in worldwide sales figures, 'Tango' is the band's second biggest selling studio album (I just checked, and it had sold 8,697,088 copies by 2003), after 'Rumours.'
Yes, I am a nerd.
