It has now been more than 40 years since the Recording Industry Association of America started handing out awards for million-selling LPs. Which makes this a good time to count down the biggest selling classic rock albums of all time.
The Eagles' compilation Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) became the first album to be certified platinum back in February 1976. As you'll see in the gallery below, it's maintained a very high spot in this countdown. In fact, the classic rock genre pretty much dominates the RIAA's best-selling albums charts, with acts like Billy Joel, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and AC/DC taking eight of the top 10 spots and 13 of the top 20 overall.
