Best Answer

The Beatles hold a number of music industry records. The following are only a few examples.

They are widely believed to be the best-selling music artist ever, with an estimated 600,000,000 to 1,000,000,000 sales worldwide to date.

They have released the most #1 albums in the UK (15) and in the US (19).

They have released the most #1 singles in the UK (17) and the US (20).

They released the most singles to become #1 hits in both the US and UK (13).

They are the only group to have held both the #1 and #2 spots in the US album chart for nine straight weeks on two separate occasions.

They had the largest number of American million-selling releases in one year: nine singles and six albums in 1964.

During the week of April 4, 1964, the Beatles held twelve positions in the Billboard Hot 100, including the top five spots; neither feat has ever been repeated. In addition, two Beatles tribute records appeared on the chart, "We Love You Beatles" by the Carefrees and "A Letter to the Beatles" by the Four Preps. At the same time, the Beatles occupied the top two positions in the Billboard album chart, the #1 position in the British singles chart, the top two positions in the British album chart, and the #1 position in the British EP chart, for the most complete domination of the British and American charts in history.
