30,000 is a very respectable figure - very pleased for them.

It’s an album that deserves to be heard.

Hopefully that will send a strong message to the label that its worth investing in album 13… :-)

Just to be on the safe side, and to help shift a few more copies, I think they really should consider another London gig asap :-)

30,000 in two months is pretty amazing. They need to release another single / video and get touring !

If OCFA can sell 60,000 in total, then Crooked Timber can easily surpass that. I suppose it’s too much to hope for a gold album ? ( 100,000 )

Although Andy did say that Since Shameless, every cd has sold more than the previous one. Lets hope this continues :)

Gotta say i’m very surprised OCFA sold that many, i really didn’t think they were in that league. Impressive.

does that 30,000 include all sales? or just ones with barcode readers, cus if so the number will be even higher from gig and website sales.

Give it time and it’ll double in sales, perhaps more, which it should cause its a return to form

well as good as the album is what you havent factored in there is that release week sales will be much higher with sales slowing down into the albums lifecycle with gigs or a single possibly causing a steep spike later in the life cycle.
