Paul McCartney/Beatles quiz

Day 2 of the Sioux Falls concert countdown: Try your hand at my quiz. My coworkers say it's hard, but I'm guessing most in here will be fine. http://www.argusleader.com/story/entertainment/music/2016/04/26/quiz-how-well-do-you-know-paul-mccartney-and-beatles/83532304/

21/25 ........ 84% Not bad for a foreigner I guess.
-
That was hard! I had to guess on some of the song questions and got them wrong, so I only got a 79%!

I disagree with your answer for which album has sold the most in the US. I believe the answer is Abbey Road. The White Album gets double credit for being a double album on the whole platinum/gold spectrum, but Abbey Road has actually sold more copies.

I am very rusty now with Beatles facts. I have not been reading too much about them lately.

That was what I thought as well, and the only one I got marked wrong. A pretty solid quiz.

Ha - I got the same score and I'm not a foreigner
ops: All the ones I missed were within the first 6-7 questions, then I swept through from there. I will admit one question I got right was a complete guess (the hamburg/arson/deportation question) -

I got 88% but will admit got lucky on a couple of guesses. I am willing to bet most people missed the "Pete Best" question - lol.

92% missed 2 . What song didn't go to #1 in US ? I had BOTR but was LALD What was highest selling Beatles album in US ? I put Pepper but I gather The White Album counts twice and I believe Abbey Road beats Pepper and White Album in actual single unit album sales.

100% - I feel like a genius (even though I am definitly not)
