…'cause it's counted as two records when they do the compiling, therefore doubling the sales figures. Already covered this territory upthread! (Abbey Road and SPLHCB both sold more actual copies.)

I like black music, disco music. I like the disco music that's out now - John Lennon, 1975

In a reverse of The White Albums sales being doubled for being 2 lps, Starwberry Fields b/w Penny Lane didnt reach #1 because sales were halved for each song due to it being a double a-side.

Would it not be easier to say 1 person bought The White Album so thats 1 sale and not 1 person bought 1 album but it has 2 lps so thats 2 sales?

"Well, probably we'll sell less records, less people'll go to see the film, we'll write less songs, and we'll all die of failure" (John Lennon 8/64)
