He has sold well over 70 million records worldwide,[4][5] including 6.5 million albums and singles in France,[6] over three million in the United States and more than two million albums in Korea.[7]
In 1971, the composer received his first golden record (disco d'oro) for the sale of 1,000,000 records in Italy[8][9] and a "Targa d'Oro" for the worldwide sales of 22 million.[10]
