Ryan Adams Sets New Alt-Country Sales Record

Ryan Adams' latest effort in his prolific discography, Cardinology, has set an all time Alt-Country sales record. The album has been certified as Triple Paisley with sales of over 3,024, which shatters the previous mark mark of 3,011 held by the Jayhawks 1986 self titled debut. Ryan Adams currently holds the Alt-Country's top spot by having six albums that have reached Goldenrod (500 or more album sales) certified levels or better. When asked about this tremendous achievement, Mr. Adams responded by thanking his hundreds of fans. Adams also told RollingScone that he has seven more albums planned for release this week and two all new E.P's scheduled for today. Adams also clarified a lingering question that he is in fact "not Bryan Adams."
