Top 25 Biggest Selling Albums Of All Time - How Many Do You Own?

13

 

5 but I only really like 2 of them

 

Mine:
The Beatles - Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
Madonna - The Immaculate Collection
The Beatles - Abbey Road
Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA

Got the Madonna for a buck at a yard sale last year.
I've owned the other 3 since the day(s) they came out, more or less.

 

21

I rarely buy soundtracks, so no Grease, The Bodyguard.

 

4

Led Zeppelin IV
Abbey Road
Sgt Pepper
Rumours

Have zero interest in the other 21, except maybe Back In Black.

 

14 - the question is, which albums shouldn't be on this list

 

Only picking those I own because I like the music - ie, not those I have because I collect early CDs...

...it's easier to pick the ones I don't care to own:

AC/DC
Meat Loaf
Shania
Grease
Dangerous
Celine X2
Dirty Dancing
Adele

So I have 16 by my rules.

I own Meat Loaf but that's just as a collector.

I'll probably get "BiB" someday, though...

 

Sgt Pepper
Abbey Road
Dark Side
LZ IV

 

Michael Jackson Thriller
Michael Jackson Bad
Michael Jackson Dangerous
Beatles Sgt Pepper
Beatles Abbey Road
Whitney Houston Bodyguard
Eagles Greatest Hits
Adele 21
Led Zepplin IV
Saturday Night Fever

10

 

At least 13 I own from this poll.

 

Nine:

Bat Out of Hell
Dark Side of the Moon
Eagles' Greatest Hits
Zep IV
Sgt. Pepper
The Immaculate Collection
Abba Gold
Abbey Road
Born in the USA

I once borrowed Jagged Little Pill and listened to it three times, but was nowhere near impressed enough to want to buy it.

Recently I heard most of Hotel California, and it was quite a bit better than I expected.

The others, I've never heard, apart from a few tracks (probably some of the hits) here and there.

 

Five

 

7 from that list

Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon
Eagles - Hotel California
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours*
Led Zeppelin- IV
Bruce Springsteen - Born In The USA
The Beatles - Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
The Beatles - Abbey Road



*probably only one gets more than one play all the way through in and recent year.

 

16 of them for me... I was surprised!

 

Of those, I have:

BIA
Nevermind
Wall
AfD

 

18 if I count only those albums for which I own a physical copy. 20 if I include digital files. I don't have The Bodyguard or Dirty Dancing soundtracks, I don't have Shania Twain album, and I don't have either of the Celine Dion albums on the list.

 

I remember Jagged Little Pill and what a huge hit it was, but today it really looks weird on that list.

 

16 for me

 

8

 

13.

 

11 but I don’t listen to Madonna so make that 10

 

15

 

Had 9, now own 7

 

10

 

9 out of 25:
Back In Black, Bat Out Of Hell, Dark Side Of The Moon, Come On Over, Led Zeppelin IV, Sgt. Pepper, The Beatles' "1" (I have 1+, the DVD/CD version, bought for the DVDs), Abbey Road, Born In The U.S.A.

Back In Black's easily my favorite of these, though I wish Bon had lived to do it.

I could have sworn that I had the Grease soundtrack; I used to.
Also used to have Thriller (I tried...), Rumours, ABBA - Gold, and Jagged Little Pill. Only had Thriller and Rumours in the days I listened to vinyl, many years ago.
