"They [Beatles] had, and conveyed, a realization that the world and human consciousness had to change."

--Allen Ginsberg

---------------

"[Sgt. Pepper] summed up so much of what we were saying politically, culturally, artistically, expressing our inner feelings and our view of the world in a way that was so revolutionary."

Abbie Hoffman

"When I asked Bono last fall which band he sees as the role model for U2, he immediately answered, "The Beatles. Dare I make the comparison? I don't -- but I'm not afraid of the Beatles. You need people to jump at. The 'White Album' is still the blueprint for me. It was all there -- the songs, the ideas, the disciplined songwriting right next to the mayhem. It's mindblowing.""

Hmm, im sure The Beatles werent the first rock act to play a stadium concert...And the credit for making stadium tours popular clearly go to the big rock acts of the 70s like Zeppelin, The Who and Floyd...As well as prog bands like Yes, Genesis and Jethro Tull...The whole Arena Rock trend started from there.

From the same site:

"The band did their standard 30-minute set"

Lazy wankers. That's not a rock n roll show.

The Beatles aren't really rock and roll themselves (although some of their covers are primarily that) but you can see the influence of bands like the shadows and Cliff Richard and Chuck Berry and Elvis.
