So ive heard..."Keeping in mind that Thriller was an album released in the early '80s and no other album has surpassed its record sales, not even Backstreet Boys, it can be crowned the title as the king of all pop albums." [Editor's note: Using your criteria, The Eagles: Their Greatest Hits is the SECOND best of all time.]
The RIAA established the Platinum Record in 1975. The first album that was award this was "The Eagles: Their Greatest Hits" which sold in excess of 25 million copies. "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" was NOT an industry award but was established in house by the record company to recognize Irony Butterfly's album sales since there was nothing that existed to recognize their sales and more of a marketing ploy.
As a matter of fact it wasn't. It was a rumor made after Eminem had stated their was another album in the works. The album that came out instead was Curtain Call: The Hits. This was a greatest hits compilation that included 4 new songs.
The Eagles Greatest hit album was one of their top sellers. The artist who created the cover is not listed in the credits on the record cover itself or online at this point of time.
The Eagles, Greatest Hits: 39 million sold copies
