In the case of the Beatles, quite probably. They were probably the first pop phenomenon to be subject to such intense documentation and wide appreciation. It's pretty easy to figure they'll stay in heavy rotation both musically and biograhpically for another century. Probably that question would be dicier if it was asked about the members of the 1960s Miles Davis Quintet, whose members will very likely be largely buried by history. skip h
