Some are skeptical about these figures, because they aren't independently validated, but it does seem the Brooks partnership has created considerable sales for both Wal-Marts instore music departments and their digital music store.
Elsewhere in Garth Brooks news, he has married fellow country star Trisha Yearwood. They got hitched at a private ceremony at their home in Oklahoma, which contrasted with Garth's proposal - which came in front of 7000 fans at a concert in California back in May.
