Country superstar Garth Brooks has sold more albums than anyone else in the SoundScan era (1991-now).
In figures released today by Nielsen SoundScan, Brooks catalogue has sold more than 67 million units in the last 16 years.
The country superstar has sold more albums in the 90s and 00s than The Beatles (who make the list at No. 2)
SoundScan's biggest selling artists are:
1 Garth Brooks (67,402,000) 2 Beatles (55,695,000) 3 Mariah Carey (49,937,000) 4 Celine Dion (49,692,000) 5 Metallica (48,670,000) 6 George Strait (39,171,000) 7 Tim McGraw (36,413,000) 8 Alan Jackson (35,266,000) 9 Pink Floyd (34,453,000) 10. Shania Twain (33,531,000) http://www.garthbrooks.com/ I would say that's great considering he's been retired since 2000

Wow great. I haven't heard many of his songs.

Garth brooks rocks and i'll tell you why: He's one of only a select few Country Music studs who's legendary status will hold steadfast because unlike nameless others his songs aren't all the same lame routine meaning they have range rather then all having the same sound.

i agree. he's been retired 8 years and he's still as big as he was the day he retired. he said he may be coming back once his youngest daughter is in college
