Probably, but I'm guessing might also have something to do with him having released so many damn albums and people really seem to love that Black Country Communion band he's in and I'm sure that's rolled into padding those stats.

It's probably like "most Billboard Blues chart #1 albums" or something like that. No chance he's outsold SRV, probably hasn't even outsold Kenny Wayne Shepherd.

pbs is where I first encountered this dipshit, he was playing soulful acoustic shit in Denmark or something it was so bad, even worse than the blueshammer shit if you can believe it, like John Martyn taking a shit.
