Topic: forty licks 4x platinum in USA and SAC CD's sales to now Return to archive

keysstones Forty licks was certified 4x Platinum in USA this week and the album is No. 18.

I found this article about the sales of the SAC CD's reissues. They said what the albums sold 2 millions between Europe & USA:

This is the important:
Last summer, SACD got a boost when Abkco released 22 remastered Rolling Stones albums -- among them Between the Buttons and Let It Bleed -- on ''hybrid'' SACD discs. These discs (priced at $13 to $19) look like current CDs but have two layers -- one for standard CD players and a higher-quality SACD layer. So far, the releases have sold more than 2 million copies in the USA and Europe.
