I read somewhere that Harrison was actually the most successful Beatle after their breakup.

Would that be correct?

By every measurable cumulative metric (post Beatles careers), McCartney is clearly ahead of all the others.

Arguably McCartney has done more post-Beatles than the other three combined did post-Beatles.

Obviously John only had 10 years post Beatles and spent a large portion of that time not working on music.

And George has been dead now for over 22 years and he didn’t tour or produce solo music faster than Paul after the first couple of post-breakup years.

And then there’s Ringo….

It might also extend to net worth, Paul is the only one* whose wealth exceeds one billion dollars.

*or their estate’s for the dead ones.

George did not come close to Paul’s post Beatles success. Some people may prefer him but to say he was more successful totally ignores facts. Paul in the Guinness book as the most successful singer songwriter in history

I would think it's Paul McCartney but I don't know that for sure

Paul was. Between his solo and Wings stuff he had the most success.
