Top 10 Vinyl Record Sales So Far In 2017

It's hard to believe that 2017 almost over. It's been an exciting year at Amarillo's funky little record store. We've seen a huge increase in customers (thank you), we've doubled our size and our sales have been consistently increasing. When we came across this article at Discogs.com (where we price our vinyl records at) we were surprised to see that their top ten list was similar to our top ten list. Of course, we are a super small (yet fun and funky) record store so our vinyl record sales don't count much towards the ultimate numbers for 2017. That said, here are the ten hottest vinyl records of 2017 according to Discogs:

10. The Joshua Tree - U2

9. Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin

8. Abby Road - The Beatles

7. Brothers In Arms - Dire Straits

6. The Wall - Pink Floyd

5. Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

4. Thriller 25 - Michael Jackson

3. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles

2. Rumours - Fleetwood Mac

And the number one top selling vinyl record so far in 2017....

The dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd

Also in the article, Discogs presented the top ten list from Nielson (which doesn't come close to matching our list) but is interesting anyway. Here is their top ten list:

10. The dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd

9. Yours Conditionally - Tennis

8. Purple Rain - Prince

7. Abby Road - The Beatles

6. ÷ (Divide) - Ed Sheeran

5. Back To Black - Amy Winehouse

4. Legand - Bob Marley & The Wailers

3. Guardians of the Galaxy Awesome Mix Vol. 1 - Soundtrack (Various Artists)
