Again , not exclusive to The Beatles


No that was Joe Meek


So they were popular & influenced things , great. So did all the bands on this list


They did something , it's just always overstated by fanboys like you



The Velvet Underground probably influenced most of my favourite bands , and I willing to give them credit for that even though I don't like them a huge amount.
Yes, Urban, the you may be right on all of these points, you may not. I don't have the desire nor the ability to check all of these facts. But even if the Beatles weren't the first to do so, shouldn't the fact that they were able to incorporate all of that count for something?
