Page "21 at 33" Paragraph 1

The title comes from the fact that this was John's 21st album in total at the age of 33.

According to the liner notes in the remastered edition of the album, the count includes all standard albums, two " Greatest Hits " compilations, two live albums, as well as the Friends soundtrack, the three-song, 12-inch EP The Thom Bell Sessions and the UK-only " rarities " collection Lady Samantha.

The album sold over 900, 000 copies in the United States, narrowly missing a Platinum certication.
