Is FLEETWOOD MAC’s Rumours Really The Biggest Selling “Rock” Album Of 2024?
December 17, 2024, 2 hours ago
Ultimate Classic Rock is reporting that the best-selling rock album of 2024 is 47 years old.
In a year dominated by pop, country and hip-hop, Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 masterpiece, Rumours, was the highest-charting rock album on Billboard’s 2024 year-end chart, landing at #34, just one spot ahead of Elton John’s 2017 greatest hits collection, Diamonds.
According to the report, just 29 of the Top 200 albums on Billboard’s year-end 2024 chart were from rock artists. Depressingly, none of them were released this year. All but five of the 29 were greatest hits collections. Besides Rumours, the only non-compilation rock albums to make the chart were Nirvana’s Nevermind, AC/DC’s Back In Black, Linkin Park’s [Hybrid Theory] and Sublime’s self-titled 1996 album.
