Album Sales 140 million?
 

Hi, I think album sales must of hit 140 m + by now....

Wiki puts album sales as follows:

Bon Jovi 3,500,000
7800 3,000,000
Slippery When Wet 28,000,000
New Jersey 18,000,000
Keep The Faith 12,000,000
Crossroad 21,500,000
These Days 12,000,000
Crush 11,000,000
One Wild Night 2,000,000
Tokyo Road 400,000
Bounce 5,000,000
This Left Feels Right 1,500,000
100,000,000 fans.... 1,000,000
Have A Nice Day 6,000,000
Lost Highway 4,000,000
The Circle 3,000,000
Greatest Hits 4,000,000
What About Now 1,500,000

TOTAL 137,400,000

There are some official albums missing:

En Brazil (1989)
En Argentina (1989)
Hard and Hot (1991)
Inside Out (2012)

Does anyone have sales figures for these releases?

The wiki numbers have been static for a very long time now, so I'm sure across the board sales will have increased. eg I assume there will have been new sales for NJ of at least 50,000 WW in the last few months?

Does anyone have newer information?

The first 2 albums seem very low too. I was under the impression that 7800 had sold nearly 2,000,000 prior to SWW (I might be wrong!?!) and with the fame that followed + the 2 international re-issues and the 6-7 Japanese reissues I would have thought it would be much higher that 3,000,000. Again does anyone know otherwise?

Solo albums should be factored in, especially Jons, due to the way all contracts are set-up under his name.

I always thought the Wiki numbers were a little high too.

I recall somewhere at the back of my grey matter that Blaze of Glory Sold 4,000,000 and Destination Anywhere sold 3,000,000. I have nothing to back that statement up with other than the memory of reading numerous books / magazine articles etc over the years.

If my numbers are correct WW sales are nearly 145,000,0000 with the JBJ solo albums.

Happy to be corrected.....

Wiki maybe a bit high, but in my view Crush and Bounce seem a bit high with Bon Jovi, 7800 and OWN being a bit low. The other numbers seem consistent with what was reported in the respective eras.

Let's just release 150,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong and call it a day
