The album was a big success in Europe, and a modest success in the UK, but failed to sell as well in the US because George was not able to tour and promote the record there due to drugs-related restrictions, so Sold reached only number 145 on the Billboard 200, even though Boy George had been a multi-platinum artist with Culture Club in previous years. The album was nonetheless a huge hit in Italy, where it became George’s highest-charting and bestselling work ever – not even his band Culture Club, though extremely popular in that country, ever achieved such an outcome there. The album got good reviews, even if Virgin Records did not like the use of brass on many tracks.
