"What would you think of a band that had the first five songs in the top ten of single's records?"

Teenagers obviously stopped listening to the radio. They are too finicky.

Not just five out of the top ten, the first five.

"Do you even think that would be possible with a band today?"

No way. The labels wouldn't allow it to happen.

"Do you know which band did this awesome feat?"

The Dave Clark Five?

See the intro to the thread. It has the whole story.

It was the Beatles. Their feats are summed up in the intro.

Nobody could believe what the Beatles were like unless they were there.

The Beatles were the spearhead of the British Invasion.

Would the British Invasion have happened without the Beatles?
