Heartland

in Germany.

This monday it seems Vision Thing went Gold in Germany (100 000+ copies). Though I remember reading somewhere (Heartland IV) that the album sold 200 000+ only in Germany back in 1990. They probably got a Gold record back then or two, but why doesn't this page say so? Incomplete list? Ignorance? I wonder.

Anyway, congrats Andrew, you deserve it.

The format mentioned in the list is LP (vinyl).
So no cd's....

That's the reason I'd say...

Perhaps the sales of the Sisters back catalogue have been at least slightly boosted by their biggest tour ever...

LP = Long Play (CD, MC, LP, VHS, DVD, MD etc) according to the site.

Either way, congrats on getting gold.

Apparently you can polish a Turd then ..............who'd have thunked it?

Congrats! I hope the WEA-people bite their own arses to have treated the Sisters the way they did!

Okay! Did not notice but then again I wonder if they realize it themselves...

Oh Behave!

So then that gold VT off eBay wasn't a fake then? It was just being sold before it was handed out even?

Hehehe...

Actually, I remember seeing three (3) gold discs for VT.. (think it was on Robins site?).. This was many years ago.. and I'm wondering, where did they come from then? VT haven't sold gold in UK AFAIK.

I thought that it had gone gold as well. How do you know that it was recognized as of Monday? I see only the year 2006 listed. Was there an announcement?

To be honest I've been lurking on that site for a while now doing some research, and of course I checked the Sisters at least twice a week for the last month.. *geek* and the VT album wasn't listed until the latest update: 23-10-06 so I figured they just got one..
