I have no clue, but I'm gonna say "Queen" (without FM)...

Led Zeppelin!!

Sorry not Queen not Zeppelin----but Zeppelin has been noted to have sold over 250 million records this band has been estimated at 370 million records and growing-----good guess-------queen also has been estimated over 250 million but they recorded up to they early 90's before Freddie past away----the band I am looking 4 stopped in 1982--amother good guess.

Pink Floyd? ( thinking "the Wall" and DSOTM here!)

Pink floyd is still performing today and as far as i can tell have sold just over 100 million

Bachman-Turner Overdrive

I'll take a shot.

ABBA?

LOL,you're nice,thanks...


I'm too lazy to hold it,lol...

Pretty amazing that a band who hasnt played together in almost as many years as Journey has been together as a whole ,are still bringing 3 million sales a year, maybe Journey should find out who there management team was--just amazing---for a disco/pop band in the seventies no less.

Let's put it this way, their souls are spoken for.

Unfortunately,Abba's manager died in 1996 or something like that.

Funny I remembered...One of Abba's albums is named "Arrival".

Good one Yulog,,,,

Lets keep this thread alive though...

Here's one that's easier ,,,
This band had a major hit in 86 and toured with Def Leppard in 88 and split up 1990 just to reunite in 2004 with a new CD/DVD and world tour.

Good call, i remember that one, it had "dancing queen" and "knowing me ,knowing you" on that record.

Wouldn't know it if I've ever heard a single note recorded by abba.

Did you guys know that Marcel Jacob who has played with Jeff in bands like Talisman, Human Clay, Humanimal and Rising Force, played with Europe for a while and wrote a song called "Scream Of Anger" which Jeff sings on the Talisman DVD ?:)
