Lick It Up did 240,000 copies first two days

But sure it was all because the makeup was off. It wasn't because all those who bought COTN rushed out.

Sounds 10/22/1983


As Kerrang also mentioned, the album was at 1M US and 1.5M WW around August 1985.

Thank goodness for all those great Vinnie songs on COTN and LIU.

And thank you Vinnie for driving KISS and making KISS the Vinnie Vincent Band!

It's funny how some believe "Lick It Up" took 10 years or more to hit 1M in the US.

240,000 units in 2 days. That's huge.
