Fleetwood Mac's mega-hit Rumours tops the list, announced on May 2.
Full Album
It has since sold 40 million copies worldwide — and is now top of the charts again following a vinyl revival, selling 280,000 copies on the format this millennium.
The other albums rounding out the top five spots are Pink Floyd's The Dark Side Of The Moon, Nirvana's Nevermind, (What's The Story) Morning Glory by Oasis, and Queen compilation Greatest Hits.

Oasis sells more than Queen? In England maybe but not worldwide

Biggest surprise is Oasis having 2 of the top ten vinyl albums of all time

Oasis at Knebworth, 1996: 500,000
The defining moment of Britpop, Oasis at Knebworth was a truly magnificent musical spectacle. With 250,000 fans attending over two nights, Oasis were assured their place in musical history. Legend has it that the gigs had the biggest guest list of all time.
Still a little surprising to be in the top ten twice

Ya know, I listen to this album all the way through about once a year.
It really is a fricking great record.

The Stone Roses? GTFO. That list cannot be accurate.

I read several articles on this and overlooked the UK part entirely. I did question the fact Oasis was on there twice and the Stone Roses at all.
Now Fleetwood Mac on top seems weird except for the fact the Christine McVie is English.
Still a great accomplishment for Fleetwood Mac

Rumours (note the English spelling) is one of the top two or three selling albums ever, worldwide

Bob Welch also logged some time in the Mac, pre-Nicks and Buckingham

The original release was a masterpiece even without Silver Springs included.

if you are honestly unaware, some incredible music awaits you. Introduce yourself to possibly the greatest guitarist of all time, Peter Green
