Multi-hit-maker Kenny Rogers is among 62 other acts who've received the first-ever Diamond Award. The award is to commemorate
the biggest-selling albums in U.S. history. To receive the award, the act must have sold more than 10 million copies. The
Beatles ranked at No. 1 of the top sellers, having recorded five albums that sold more than 10 million copies. Garth Brooks
came in at No. 2. Other artists honored included ZZ Top, Elton John, Boston, Guns N' Roses, Journey and Bon Jovi. "Nothing
touches an artist like knowing your music has touched somebody else," Rogers reported to Billboard.
