Judging from one day sales totals, "Songs From Black Mountain" is projected to have sales between 20,000 and 50,000 copies in the US during its first week (this projection does not include the 7,500+ digital downloads of the album that have already been sold on the internet since May 23rd). Live's last studio album, "Birds Of Pray", debuted at #28 on The Billboard 200 chart, with sales of 39,000 units. It has since sold 274,000 copies (in the US alone).

I was hoping with the preorders and AI performance sales would be higher. Not that I really care, I don't base my opinion on their popularity. It would be nice to see them get the recognition they deserve in the US though. I suppose it's still pretty good considering The River didn't make the impact I thought it would. Hopefully the new version of Mystery will get some airplay.
