Really to everybody. They were a pop culture phenomenom. If you are just mildly into music then you should know who they were. Not knowing who the Beatles are is not quite as bad but approaching the same sort of level of not knowing the basics about what the cold war was or about the cuban missile crisis.
There are probably a lot of people who don't know those things either. They are still historical basics that should be known.

Were. Many decades ago.

Those are things that are taught in school pretty much universally. Not really the same IMO. I don't see what's so crazy about saying young people today don't know one particular member of the Beatles.
I'd bet a lot of so called sports fans couldn't tell you much about the '85 Bears other than knowing their defense was good.
