I meant sales RANK
No matter what Dennis and Styx are way far out of the limelite
Its all about the money now.

These rankings change all the time, but there is usually a spike up after a show or appearance, by both Styx and/or Dennis. Dennis' Ultimate Collection spiked up into the 6000's in rankings I believe, right after Duets. And Styx GH went into the top 200 in sales. I am sure that has changed as they re-calculate each day's sales.
I know we have trod here a bunch, vis-a-vis Amazon. And I do not think it reflects anything other than sales trends nationwide. It is a huge source of CD sales on a national basis, but, as we know, not the only one.
The sales on Amazon do mirror the Billboard rankings, etc. No question.
But I don't think one can get more than just a general idea of how well something is selling.
