"40 million records and going strong.
Never won a Grammy
Still won't play along in Hollywood, like we should"
Mötley Crüe - Fake - 2000
Ever wondered
which Mötley Crüe album spent the most time in the charts? Or perhaps
you’ve had a bet with someone and are looking for the facts. Search no
more!
Here’s the
official Billboard chart history for all Mötley Crüe albums, in
chronological order. The official RIAA (Recording Industry Association
of America) album certification dates and levels have also been
included. The gold record award was first introduced in
1958. Currently, gold is awarded for 500,000 units sold, platinum for
1,000,000, and multi-platinum for 2,000,000+. These units are based on
shipments to retail accounts from the record label, not actual over the
counter sales
The Soundscan
column shows actual over the counter sales purchased by consumers in
the United States (only!), and it's the industry standard on which the
Billboard charts are based. This system came into effect towards the
end of 1991, so items in this column are units sold since then. Ten
units for each album have also been added to allow for the small stores
that don't report to Soundscan yet.
