At least be coherent. I said that Harrison's guitar solo was "punk like". Don't inflate my words to fit your narrative.

Trying to dismiss The Beatles is akin to trying to dismiss Coltrane, Davis, Williams, Jackson, Holly, Wilson, Brown, Wonder, and many others. Look up the word 'foundation'.

There's not a single rock or pop band post 1970 that wasn't heavily influenced, either directly, or indirectly by The Beatles. Even all of the extreme metal that came decades later benifited from the trickle down affect of their influence.
