Double Live is the name of Garth Brooks' tenth country album. As its name implies, it is a two-disc live album recorded live during Brooks' second world tour in 1998. It broke the first week sales record at the time, when it sold one million copies^[1], becoming the best-selling live album in the U.S. since Peter Frampton's Frampton Comes Alive! in 1976. The RIAA certified the album at 21.00× Multi Platinum, recognizing 10.5 million shipments in the United States (as a double album its was certified double the original 10.5 times, hence the certification of 21.00× Multi Platinum)- making it tied with Billy Joel's Greatest Hits Volume I & Volume II for sixth best-selling album of all time.^[2]
