3. No one did what they did, even Elvis

Granted, a lot of people "attempted" to copy Elvis.

But when the Beatles hit, those guys WENT AWAY. So did Elvis. He made crap movies until his 1968 comeback special. Guys like Jimmy Page and the rest of Led Zeppelin offered to do an album with him and he said no. He went to Vegas, over-medicated himself, ballooned up to grotesque proportions, and died.

There are groups making records RIGHT NOW that continue to dip into the "Beatles Well."

No one is, was, or will be "better" than The Beatles...and that INCLUDES Wings.
