The Beatles’ influence sharply fell off following their breakup (after woodstock such bands were “passe” you had to be socially conscious, almost neo-country folky hippie).

Wings and Lennon had a few hits but their their influence as soloists never compared to what they did as Beatles.

The Kinks, Who, and Rolling Stones all were more relevant in the charts through the 70s and even 80s.

I'd hope so. The Beatles broke up in 1970.
