Journey Escape nearing 10 Million sold mark and since greatest hits has already sold 14 million this would make journey having two 10 million selling albums.the only bands to have done this are the beatles,led zeppelin,pink floyd,the eagles and van halen if i'm correct.very exclusive company there and shows journey is one of THE best bands in rock history.

i think lindsey said that crow had jumped the gun on that...........AND i just looked up fleetwood macs albums.. rumors=30 million.. great hits = 8 million..... but still WOW!!

And then SP/Journey will have TWO Diamond albums.

Don't forget Def Leppard.

He sure did say that, which makes me wonder about Sheryl Crow. How do you screw something like that up?

I was wondering the same thing. Perry's solo career as a whole hasn't even scraped together enough to equal half a diamond album.

Barely even 1/4 of a diamond album.

I was talking about Greatest Hits - 14x Platinum, and Diamond certified. And what I MEANT by "SP/Journey" was two Journey albums from those years. I should know better than you people up for an argument on semantics but I guess that will teach me.

Backstreet boys = 2(closing in on their third)
Shania twain = 3
Billy joel = 2
Eagles =3
N sync = 2
Pink floyd = 2
The Beatles = 6
Led zep = 5
Garth brooks = 6
Whitney = 2
Mariah carey = 2
Madonna = 2
Def leppard = 2
Britney spears = 2
Van halen = 2
celine dion = 2
patsy cline = 2(never heard of her)

The numbers above are the amount of diamond records according to the R.I.A.A.(note i didn't see 2 for Michael jackson or fleetwood mac on the list)

Also, their are 55 other people or groups that have 1 diamond record each, Journey is one of them.
