Re: Sales of the spaghetti incident
im looking for the most up to date sales figures for The Spaghetti Incident, what i want to know is the total world wide sales and the united states sales. Over the years I have found that the sales for this album tend to be all over the place from person to person I know all the exact details about the other GNR albums but not this one. Any help? thanks
Re: Sales of the spaghetti incident
its been certified platinum in the USA by RIAA so at least 1,000,000 sold in the USA though it hasnt been certified since 1994
also it sold about 190,000 copies in its first week...debuting @ #4 on the billboard 200 chart
http://www.worldwidealbums.net/ shows about 5,500,000 copies sold worldwide
with that i'm i'm tapped out

Re: Sales of the spaghetti incident
I think it sold allot less than the UYI or AFD, but it debuted pretty well in Australia when it came out, considering it was the height of grunge and GN'R weren't so hip anymore

Re: Sales of the spaghetti incident
It was a pretty cool time though, because it was my first GN'R release that I was anticipating coming out since becoming a fan a year or so earlier. I remember listening to rock radio to hear exclusives of the new songs. I remember hearing Raw Power and thinking, fuck yeah!

Yeah this album cops a lot of shit cos its covers but I recon its killer, great production, great playing from the band and great vocals. Some of the tracks rock so hard on this.

I heard "Ain't It Fun" on Sirius the other day and rocked the F out. Always loved that song.
I love the way slash holds some notes on that until they feedback with that sort of harmonic distortion thing....it's killer.
Re: Sales of the spaghetti incident
You know what pisses me off? How much shit this album gets...people are so fickle...how can people go nuts for the release of UYI and then completely forget about a band less than 2 years later.
Black Leather kicks major ass...Down on the Farm...I dare you not to rock out to that with that opening guitar riff...good album hands down.
