The Diamond
The Diamond examined albums certified for 10 million+ sales by the RIAA — 'the hardest substance on earth: insoluble, impervious to penetration, secure in itself.' Each of 12 installments asked why we should separate art from commerce, covering Thriller, Rumours, Born in the U.S.A., Cracked Rear View, Hybrid Theory, and others. Written by Tal Rosenberg, Patrick McKay, Alfred Soto, and others.
