The numbers are interesting. We might argue about accuracy, and this page explains how difficult it is to compile accurate numbers, but from here in the US it shows a huge drop off once Blackmore left. Europe, interestingly, remained strongly supportive of the band. Amazing to me that according to these numbers, Slaves and Masters outsold Purpendicular here by almost 10x in the US. That new lease of life many of us heard with the first Morse album was apparently not widely shared over here. Numbers suggest the 'time trilogy' might approach a million all included, certainly not a million each from the data provided. If you follow the links to their all time artist sales, DP seem to nudge into the top 50, with total sales similar to Bowie and Van Halen. All good fun, as they say, even Ian Paice is confused by it, saying all he knows is that they have sold some amount that is greater than 10 but probably less than 500m. He would appear to be correct nondisclosed_email@example.com (plonknob)Sat, 09 Oct 2021 18:07:36 +0000 Re: Deep Purple albums and songs saleshttps://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p523291,from=rss#post523291https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p523291,from=rss#post523291quote:ptr wrote: quote:trebron wrote: quote:recklessabandoner wrote: the last three records have sold a total of million copies according to their record company. does anyone have more information on this / sources?

Given that DP had something like 3 of the top 5 selling albums in 1973 in the US and one of those was MIJ then you could probably double he numbers. 24 carat purple also not included. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Perfectly Strange)Fri, 08 Oct 2021 06:56:38 +0000 Deep Purple albums and songs saleshttps://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p523281,from=rss#post523281https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p523281,from=rss#post523281Here's some interesting numbers about Deep Purple sales. https://chartmasters.org/2021/08/deep-purple-albums-and-songs-sales/ What do you think?nondisclosed_email@example.com (Randys)Fri, 08 Oct 2021 02:02:38 +0000
