Three Rock Bands of All Time



Kirk Fisher is the founder and chief executive officer of Fisher Real Estate, a company that develops commercial properties for national retailers in Louisiana. Outside of his work, Kirk Fisher is a member of a Louisiana band called Better than Nobody. Together with his band, Mr. Fisher regularly volunteers to play at charitable events that range from church auctions to nonprofit fundraisers.

Going by metrics such as Billboard performance, music awards earned, popularity on music streaming platforms, Wikipedia page views, and of course record sales, the Beatles are the best music band of all time. This British band formed in 1960 has sold over 600 million albums across the globe and won 10 Grammy Awards, 4 Brit Awards, and 15 Ivor Novello Awards. The band made up of Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, John Lennon, and George Harrison has also won an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score, and been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Beatles Wikipedia page gets over 9 million views annually.

Two other hugely popular bands are also from Britain. Led Zeppelin, formed in Birmingham, England, in 1968, has sold over 110 million albums in the US and more than 300 million worldwide. The band gets close to 5.5 million annual Wikipedia page views. Queen, formed in London in 1970, has also sold over 300 million albums. They’re most famous for their hit song Bohemian Rhapsody, which is one of the most streamed songs in the world, with over 1.6 billion streams on all major music streaming platforms.
