Streaming Part 2 – For Sale… & Stream
The string of 1 million plus plays songs continues with the full track lists of both Beatles For Sale and Help!. The former lacks a bit of big hits with only Eight Days a Week closing in 15 million. This implies a relatively low 38,000 equivalent album sales.
At 125,000 units the latter is much stronger. Help! achieves this total thanks to the title track at 26 million, Ticket To Ride at 18 million and of course the cult Yesterday which rides high at 43 million.
An update on The Beatles would be great.
BFD on amount of records sold. Theres more people in the world. All these groups/people are playing because of the BEATLES. I bought my first guitar from a guys living room. I traded my flute in for an electric guitar, at Jacks Drum Shop, after Feb. 1964 when they were on Ed Sullivan. There was no Guitar Center, or anything like that. Since the BEATLES, everyone and their brother play guitar.
