The Fine Print: Several notable albums that were released prior to 1991 may have sold 1 million copies in one week (we’ll never know for sure). Candidates that may have done it include Elton John’s Captain Fantastic And The Brown Dirt Cowboy (1975), Stevie Wonder’s Songs In The Key Of Life (1976), the Bee Gees’ Saturday Night Fever soundtrack (1978), John Lennon/Yoko Ono’s Double Fantasy (1980), Michael Jackson’s Thriller (1984) and Bad (1987), Bruce Springsteen’s Born In The U.S.A. (1984) and Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band Live/1975-1985 (1985), Prince and the Revolution’s Purple Rain soundtrack (1984) and Whitney Houston’s Whitney (1987).
