The Beatles Still Topping Billboard Music Charts after 50 Years


Jonathan David has served as the chief executive officer of Tapstone Holdings since 2013. In this position, he has launched more than 100 effective advertising campaigns. Beyond his work at Tapstone Holdings, Jonathan David is a big music fan who enjoys the new music, as well as classics like Radiohead and The Beatles.

An interesting fact about is that the Beatles released 20 songs that topped the Billboard charts between 1962 and 1970, an all-time record. All 20 of these singles were collected into one album for the first time in 1982, and simply titled 20 Greatest Hits. In 2000, another greatest-hits album featuring the Beatles’ 20 number one singles, as well as several additional popular Beatles’ tracks, was released under the title 1.

Since its initial release, 1 has gone on to sell more than 31 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling album in the UK since 1991, the fourth highest-selling album in the United States. 1 has been remastered and reissued on several occasions, most recently in the summer of 2015 as 1+. While 1 is considered a greatest-hits collection, it has sold more copies than any of the group's studio albums.
