* The mechanical sales figures are on the low side of approximate.
A deluge of reissues, recuts & repackaging now makes it nigh on
impossible to keep track of my er, tracks. When I added the songs
which appeared on albums along side some of the above, and the
many that didn’t plus those that were ’big in Italy’ etc., I arrived
at a rough, approximate total figure of 130 mil’n. Which was nice.
