Three good contenders I was thinking along the lines of Queen with Bohemian Rhapsody at number one for 9 weeks in the U.K. alone plus all those brilliant albums in the 70's

Mattk

worldwide wouldnt be abba.they were more of a uk phenomenon than u.s.

my money would be on elvis.especially in the late 70's

OBonio

The brothers Gibb are the biggest selling writers I think (including all the songs they wrote for other people).
