The Ventures Ranking and sales of The Ventures's albums and singles in the Oricon charts - Japan.

Often referred as "biggest foreign band" in Japan with sales of over 40 millions of LP.
On Billboard september 19, 1970, Toshiba reports were :
Long play disk, 50 issued, sales 1 400 000.
Extended play disk, 40 issued, sales 4 000 000
Single disk, 60 issued, sales 8 000 000
Tape, cassette, 30 issued, sales 500 000.

With Oricon's data, it seems impossible to reach the 40 millions tally.
