    looks like Traveler will pass 2,000,000 scanned on the chart dated July 29th last week was it's 2 year chart anniversary and from a Room Vol 1 is headed towards Gold certification though certifications are based on shipments not actual sales Gold was introduced in 1958 platinum in the mid 1970's multi platinum in 1984 and diamond for 10,000,000 shipped in 1999 of course there are albums that are 2 x diamond or even 3 x + a few extra platinum as for example Michael Jackson's 1982 landmark album Thriller is 33 x platinum then double albums over 90 minutes long are counted twice for certification so albums like the Beatles White which turns 50 in fall 2018 is 19 x platinum for shipments of 9.5 million though the cert is out of date by over 16 years it's shipped nearly another million since so it should be 21 x platinum as for Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band the 50th anniversary additions were released yesterday the 50th anniversary of the original UK release granted several big markets don't have a diamond award for example the UK doesn't but their equivalent is 3,000,000 sold as platinum is 300,000 Canada's diamond award is 800.000 as platinum was downgraded to 80,000 on May 1st 2008
