    Rolling Stone:


    The Eagles officially have the best-selling album of all time. Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975 has overtaken Michael Jackson‘s Thriller, reclaiming the top spot nearly a decade after the King of Pop’s death.

    The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) recently recalculated sales of the best-of collection and certified the LP as 38x platinum, pushing the 33x platinum Thriller to second place, the Associated Press reports. The RIAA confirmed the new certifications to Rolling Stone.

    How can it be best selling when it doesn't even have Heartache Tonight on it?

    For context, it already was the highest selling album ever. When Michael Jackson died, Thriller had a resurgence in sales and overtook it. It just took a few years to climb back to the top.
