What would you define as "mega" though? Whilst I understand The Beatles or the Stones being there, I don't see how you could include the likes of Led Zep or Pink Floyd and make an exclusion for Genesis. Genesis in the Gabriel era sold well in the UK, but not in the U.S., where Selling peaked at #70, Lamb got to #41, and nothing else charted. Considered a prog band. Meanwhile in Argentina it remains one of the most influential acts for our own rock scene as well as producing swathes of *imitators* - not just artists inspired and influenced by them - across the world, all to the point of basically giving birth to a whole new subgenre in their wake with neo-prog. Heck, I'd argue they've had a more enduring legacy than several other undisputed "mega" bands like the Who.
