     That is just a laughably stupid number.  Proof positive that big money,
or the lack of it, can make or break an artist.  I realize that the 'rockets
aren't the most marketable band, but Black Oak Arkansas, a band even uglier
and far worse than Henneman & Co. had 3 gold records in the 70's, at least
according to that recent Oxford American.
