Are we really talking about impact? If it weren't for the likes of...

King, The Everly Bros. the genre wouldn't exist as we know it... it wouldn't have turned into the things we all love. The fact that the genre is still alive and kicking is the resonation of their impact. Let me tell you something. All bands owe it to these pioneers. ALL. Every rock band that exists, and ever will exist owes it to those people. That's a fact. Is it a fact that bands today owe it more to the bands of the British Invasion? No. That's speculation. Conjecture. Your opinion. You aren't apart of every band. You can't decide this for them. What I'm doing is stating a fact. I don't have to be part of every band in existence to say it, either.

No im pretty sure you were the one who listed Ska as a reason for why the US is better...When neither country really deserves the credit.
Also, did you not remember what i said before?...If you really want to trace it back to the 50s, then why not go even further?
Also, who do Radiohead have more in common with?...The Beatles or Chuck Berry?
