The Beatles

I enjoyed a lovely Beatles feature presentation on TV with screaming fans adoring every movement of the famous band while there was an INXS concert in town. I heard later that there was hardly any crowd at the live concert here in Mumbai despite wide spread coverage and a pretty regular TV appearance by the band in the last couple of months.

I was wondering about the mad rush and crazy fan following that the Beatles enjoyed in the '60s and the luke warm reception the Bombay audience gave a pretty popular band today. Are there too many bands now or too few fans? How is it that there were so many great rock groups then and so few singers one can actually listen to now...
