Well it's part and parcel of
"The Beatles created the music universe because they did everything first theory." I guess it's a "first" when The Beatles do it and they are tauted innovators but when another band can be credited for a "first" it's lame.

The issue The Beatles did a better job of borrowing ideas, it's they had the privilege of having ideas they borrowed as accredited as their own.
George Harrison in his whole career as a lead guitarist with The Beatles didn't approach nearly the same amount of notes played on a single Les Paul song.
