Sir Cliff Richard Has Sold more singles in The U.K. Just check out the World Book of Facts.
I believe Elvis and The Beatles were both pretty even in the amount of fans they had. But The Beatles had four members of the band rather than Elvis, therefore attracting more people of the time since everyone had their "favorite of The Fab Four". Since Elvis and the Beatles were both the beginning of real music, I think it's fair to say history can't record which bands were more popular.

Nirvana record sales are about 80 million. Elvis Presley on the other hand lists at more than 118 million, thus Elvis Presley sold more records at this time - but it's quite possible that Nirvana could surpass Elvis over the years as Nirvana record sales continue to increase well over the years.

Probably Michael Jackson. . . May the King of Pop rest in peace. update: Beatles was number one, followed by Elvis but Mariah Carey took over in 2008 with 18 #1 singles while Elvis has 17. But if you count Glee cast members as a band/artist, they actually beat Beatles with more #1 singles.
Elvis Presley. :)
Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Elvis were a few of the most important influences The Beatles had. More influences can be found if you visit their wikipedia-page.
