		In '63--4 EMI artists topped the UK charts for a total of 76 weeks, all but one of the artists being British, but this success was not repeated in the USA, where Capitol passed on nearly all these artists (even the Beatles, whose first US records came out on Vee-Jay, later bought by EMI).
		EMI put in team headed by V. Bhaskar Menon, former head of EMI's Gramophone Company of India (another large country where distribution was a problem), which succeeded in turning the company around.
		EMI was the second biggest record company in the world in the mid-'90s, but in North America it was fifth (behind Warner, Sony, Polygram and Bertelsmann).
