Arista, a unit of Bertelsmann AG, attributed the higher sales to veteran rock guitarist Carlos Santana, who made a clean sweep of the top Grammy categories in February.
Arista said that "Supernatural," the group's first number one album since 1971 has now shipped 16 million copies worldwide and achieved about $160 million in sales. The album is expected to achieve $250 million in worldwide revenue by the end of calendar year 2000, Arista said.
Also contributing to the label's success were Whitney Houston's "My Love Is Your Love" and TLC's "Fanmail."
