“The Ultimate Hits” Also Re-Entered The Charts, Marking Brooks’ 4th Album In The Top 10
Nashville, TN – Dec. 5, 2016 – Garth Brooks has an unrivaled hold on the Top 10 Country Album Chart, as his recently released THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION, CHRISTMAS TOGETHER and GUNSLINGER (Pearl Records, Inc.) were the top 3 best-selling albums respectively on BuzzAngle this

respectively in 1992. Critics have been quick to praise Brooks’ “strong
new album” (New York Times) GUNSLINGER, with The Guardian highlighting
that on the “impressive new album… [Brooks] made sure the 10 songs
stand tall inside his classic catalog of hits.” 
Fans were
able to experience GUNSLINGER ahead of its national release, as it was
included on GARTH BROOKS: THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION which debuted as the
No. one best-selling album sold solely through Target. Brooks is also
currently undertaking a stacked holiday season of national TV
appearances in support of his first collaborative album with Trisha
Yearwood, CHRISTMAS TOGETHER. The festive collection debuted at No. one
on Billboard’s Top Country albums chart and will see the pair take part

at over 10 million album sales each and remains the #1-selling solo
artist in U.S. history certified by the RIAA with over 138 million album
sales. He has received every accolade the recording industry can bestow
on an artist. Garth has been inducted into the International
