February 2, 2001 - AC/DC, Garth Brooks, Shaggy and Dido each picked up multi-platinum awards from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in January, while Rage Against the Machine, Xzibit, Linkin Park and Jaci Velasquez garnered single-platinum honors. The late John Coltrane, meanwhile, scored his first-ever gold award.
