Paul McCartney – $1.2 billion
Greatest Hits: Yesterday
The only person whose name can rival John Lennon in terms of fame is Paul McCartney, despite the fact that he was a co-founder of the Beatles, which is understandable. He had over 2,200 music-covered performers, many of whom were present for the song that was performed yesterday. He was twice inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for his work with the Beatles and his subsequent solo success. He was awarded 18 Grammys, and he and his fellow Beatles were dubbed “Crowds” in 1965, when they performed together. In 1997, he received the honor of being knighted for his contributions to music.
Van Morrison – $90 million
Greatest Hits: Gloria, Brown Eyed Girl
Van Morrison is a music legend who began his career as a child. He has performed all over the world. He performed with a number of Irish showbands before becoming well-known as a member of the Northern Irish R&B group, Them, in the 1990s. He was the lead singer of the group Them, who recorded the song Gloria, which established the genre. It was the late 1960s when the legendary single ‘Brown-Eyed Boy’ was released. His debut album, Astral Weeks, debuted at number one on the charts but failed to gain traction. Moondance, his second release, was a critical and commercial success. Van Morrison continues to tour the world with his music to this day.
