Jesus Christ...I advanced only an opinion, to which I am entitled. I never said "The Beatles are better than the Who" as an objective statement. To me, they are. But that's me!!!
And what I meant was that the musical revolution caused by The Beatles was unlike anything that happened before or ever since. With The Beatles rock advanced from pop to psychedelia to hard rock (even hinting Rock Operas at some point) and it's pretty much stayed there since then. I get the feeling that if The Beatles had done two more albums than they did or two less rock music would be very different nowadays.
