Thriller: Albums
built 634 days ago
Originally released on Nov. 30, 1982, "Thriller" is the biggest-selling album in the world, with more than 104 million copies sold. (The Eagles' "Greatest Hits" package is the biggest-selling album in the United States, with sales of more than 29 million, about 2 million more than "Thriller," though that gap could narrow with this release.)
