holy crap this again?

it's not rocket science. The Beatles DID change the way pop culture, society, and yes musicians approached and handled their music. AFTER they got around to releasing Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. prior to that, active musicians of the day wrote them off the way most musicians off the 90s wrote off the Backstreet Boys and N'Sync. this is not my opinion but the actions and opinions of older relatives who were active musicians from the late 50s until the 90s. they were basically just a boy band for little girls until they started getting stoned.

the idea that modern music was a virtual wasteland until The Beatles finally apparead and opened everything up for the masses is either an ignorant farce or an effective troll.
