Actually, they should've done us all a favor and given up in 1978, after they went disco with crap songs like "Miss You". The Stones sold out big time.
The Beatles never sold out. They made kick-butt albums like Abbey Road right up to the end.
And there was nothing watered down about "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Within You, Without You" etc.---classic 60's psychedelia at its best. The Beatles were a huge influence on Syd Barrett, Roger Waters and David Gilmour.
