it'd be interesting to see how they do in british history, i reckon theyll be top 15 easy.

i was gonna ask what the source is, but i see you've wrote AMB - who are they exactly?
It looks pretty much as expected, although one or two surprises like AC/DC (didnt realise they were that popular, and kind of don't believe they are...)
i think REM's world sales have been under-estimated. Their 3 biggest albums, Out of Time, Automatic for the People and Monster each sold over 10 million copies each, so a total sales figure of 37 million seems too low. the general figure i've heard spoken about is around 50million
the oasis figure seems realistic
