I only have annual totals so I can't for sure say when they were sold but I estimate he only sold about 8k in 2015 and 13k in 2016. On the whole Streaming seems to have helped the really low sellers increase sales year on year even if it hasn't revived the top end of the charts. |

Thanks Gezza amazed he didn't sell more in November and December, suppose there's quite a lot of Christmas albums that have been bought to the market in this decade!

90. RED- Taylor Swift (80-81-88-90) 608,400 89. HOME- Rudimental (78-83-89) 613,200 88. THE GIFT- Susan Boyle (13-32-40-55-65-79-88) 617,300 87. IF YOU WAIT- London Grammar (85-85-87) 617,300 86. DO YOU WANT THE TRUTH OR SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL- Paloma Faith (42-64-73-63-67-80-86) 625,400 (T/S 755,500) Remember when Susan Boyle could shift albums? 2010 in fact but her album only spent 11 weeks on the chart, the shortest of any album here, anyway she’s joined by the first of three Paloma Faith albums evidencing how big she’s become, and of course Swift’s commercial breakthrough album in the UK is also hanging in well. |

85. THE MARSHALL MATHERS LP 2- Eminem (91-74-82-85) 631,000 84. TURN IT UP- Pixie Lott (17-33-41-53-62-73-84) 634,700 (T/S 883,000) 83. FOUR- One Direction (92-76-83) 635,700 82. SEASONS OF MY SOUL- Rumer (36-36-43-54-61-71-82) 642,000 81. LEGEND- Bob Marley & The Wailers (NEW) 644,200 (T/S 4,200,200) Three new albums make our list after 2016, I say new but of course “Legend” is 35 years old now, still you can’t keep a good album down, interestingly only 9 albums on this list sold more than it did in 2016! And only 2 albums have spent more weeks in the chart since 2010 on this list. The rest of the artists are all experiencing downward tilts as the years go by, but Pixie Lott and Rumer get the biggest drops year on year as they fall 11 places. |

How did you come by 4,200,200 total sales? The OCC put it on ~3.5m and 16th on all time list. Maybe I'm missing something? I'll allow Gezza to explain further, but sale estimates based on previous Year End Charts etc. suggest that the OCC's current total for Legend is way under what it is supposed to be. |

^^ Okidokes, I thought it would be something like that. The OCC make so so many errors on such a regular basis that I'd be more inclined to go with Gezza's figure.

My totals are 1.35m in the 80s, 1.25 in the 90s, almost a million in the 00s and obviously these sales. The OCC do not have any data for the period pre 1994 so they are either using record company shipment figures, certifications, or perhaps even Alan Jones' Own figures for the time I'm not sure. It's part of what makes the"all time lists" they produce largely meaningless though interesting. Add to this the ongoing yo-yoing over the sales of the 94-96 period and their lists are often contradictory sadly.

So really none really knows exactly how many sales an album or single had overall - just since 1994 plus approximates from before?
