Hello. Led Zeppelin has sold more albums than AC/DC. This is true both in the United States and worldwide: From the Recording Industry Association of America: " Australian rockers AC/DC received a belated holiday gift from Elektra Records when 14 titles were upgraded increasing their certified sales from 46.5 million to 63 million according to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Representing actual units in excess of 70 million, the band is now tied for ninth place on the RIAA's Top Grossing Artist list and stands as the fifth highest certified band in U.S. music history behind The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Elektra label mates The Eagles." http://www.riaa.com/news/newsletter/press2001/013101.asp From Sony Music: " On a cumulative basis AC/DC has sold a career total of over 140 million albums worldwide." http://www.sonymusicbonton.cz/aktuality.php?rid=1&cid=24 From Warner Brothers: "Universally recognised as one of the most innovative, powerful, and influential groups in rock history, Led Zeppelin has sold some 200 million albums worldwide." http://www.warnervision.com.au/press_updates_article.asp?id=109 --------- search strategy: "led zeppelin" "ac dc" million sales worldwide "led zeppelin" "ac dc" million sales "million albums worldwide" "led zeppelin" "million albums worldwide" "ac dc" I hope this helps. |
