As far as U.S. sales go :

The combined sales of Appetite for Destruction, Lies, Use Your Illusion I & II, The Spaghetti Incident, and Live Era are around 37 million records sold.

With a band like Guns N' Roses which enjoyed world-wide popularity, you could double that number with overseas sales.  So a good round total is approximatley 75 million.  Not bad! ok

Fuck 70 million.

This is my info:
According to Classic Rock last year Appetite has sold more than 40 million wordwide.
According to Matt Sorum (and he was very definate on this), Illusions had already sold 32 million at the end of the tour in '93.

Thats already 72 million. Add in illusions sales since '93 and lies/spaghetti incident/live era. Jesus. They must have broke 80 million and possibly 85.  ok

Its more amazing for GnR because they were a hard rock band.  Popstars are supposed to sell a ton.

Who killed the horse?

Anyway... I think Lies sold more than 5 million and the Illusions sold less than 10 millions (each one).

No way Appetite has sold 30 million wordlwide. 23 million tops.

Zeppelin's 4th album has sold 22 million and ranks higher than Appetite on a list i saw(Which is updated continually.)

And Appetite is way bigger than Boston's first album. Appetite has sold as much in America than Boston's has worldwide.

UYI1 has sold more than UY12.
