Studio albums so not including Greatest Hits collection.

The biggest selling album of all time in the UK is Queens Greatest Hits.

The biggest selling album of all time world wide is (allegedly) The Eagles Great Hits.

Yes, studio album.

Greatest Hits albums are not on the list as they are a collection of old/past tracks.

A studio album is made by the group or singer in the studio.

Saw something similar the other week. Only two studio albums have ever spent over 200 weeks on the Billboard top 100.

Have a guess if you fancy.

(Not verifying this - just something I read on a music site)

"Is one Bat Out Of Hell"

No. Though both are rock albums (or thereabouts).

I think the eagles greatest hits is only the biggest selling album in the United States as it passed Jackson's thriller

Worldwide not really sure.

Is brothers in arms by dire straits one of them?. That was the biggest selling CD album for a long time

Well numbers 3 and 4 are albums I listen to to this day. Both on my phone and in my car.

Dark Side of the Moon is pure class and totally ageless.

Found the best way of listening to it is to have a few beers or galsses of wine then listen to it through headphones ...
