How many records has guns n' roses sold?

Answer 1

appetite alone is 28x platinum, it is still selling at 5000 copies a week in the u.s alone. Chinese democracy is hard to pin down due to streaming. before the album was even pressed, the single" better " hit bill board top 40. and since all of axl's music is in copy right before it is played in public venues, recording it for streamiming is against the law. Clear Source gave it air play before the album was released. They were informed by geffen records of this. it was more than likely settled out of court, but the person that recorded the music was fined. Chinese Demacracy is selling pieces at a time. It has sold over 5 miliion, but it has been streamed much more, so now it is hard to say, how many cds are sold. the remastered greastest hits made the top 10 on bill board. I am not sure of illusions 1 and 2, both are several times platinum. I can't really blame axl rose for wanting to keep gnr going. I loved the old line up, but I really like the new guys too. I have watched them together, they play in a closer formation, I remember that slash would play so far off on the stage from the rest of the band. I see these guys having fun and playing together and no one is hot dogging to be the center of attention, and axl still show cases the Guitarists and always introduces each band member with respect, even using the title Mr. Dizzy Reed, Tommy Stinson ect. I think the album will continue to sell at a slower pace. when they tour the U.S. I think it will pick up momentum. In turn all of the old gnr stuff will increase in sales. if it were left to any other gnr member, none of them would continue to make big bucks. Axl's forsight is genius. He made gnr a commodity. We all still talk about a band and their greatness after so many years apart.
