The Beatles’ enduring influence on rock music and their unwavering fan base continue to fuel interest in their work. Additionally, their compilation albums — "1962-1966" and "1967-1970" — along with their greatest hits collection, maintain strong positions in the charts, drawing both new and long-time listeners.
