The Beatles are regarded as the most influential band of all time and were integral to the development of 1960s counterculture and popular music’s recognition as an art form.
The Beatles are the best-selling music act of all time, with estimated sales of 600 million units worldwide.
The Beatles hold the record for most number-one albums on the UK Albums Chart (15), most number-one hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (20), and most singles sold in the UK (21.9 million).
The Beatles received many accolades, including seven Grammy Awards, four Brit Awards, an Academy Award (for Best Original Song Score for the 1970 documentary film Let It Be) and fifteen Ivor Novello Awards.
The Beatles were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988, and each principal member was inducted individually between 1994 and 2015. In 2004 and 2011, the group topped Rolling Stone’s lists of the greatest artists in history.
