Name another group that - over 40 years later - have one of their album covers a tourist attraction.

(the crosswalk on Abbey Road)

as far as them being more style than talent: by far those most talented group that ever existed.

If ANY ONE of the 4 had not been around - nobody would have heard much of them outside Liverpool.

ummm... I dummo... mebbe it's just me... but I don't think the Abbey Roads tourist attraction is relevant grounds for judging which musical act is the most talented...

wider than the Grand Canyon

Seriously - nobody comes close

you cant be someone who was actually around then.....you make to many stupid statements about the music in that time period......how old are you?....i say you have to be under 25.....

yeah... I almost asked that very same question myself...

The Grateful Dead are the best rock group. Real rocknroll happens on stage not in the studio.

Yeah -the Fab 4 was really a flop in Ed Sullivan and the 2 concerts in Shea Stadium..........................

zzzzz...

~400 concerts vs. ~2300 The GD were clearly a more prolific live group.

The Beatles were a pop band. I'm not denigrating them. They're one of my favorite bands and their artistry in the studio is unmatched in history. But rock n roll is played on a stage, live, in front of the audience, in person.

don't forget the moptop haircuts... that's critically important when judging who's the greatest act in musical history...

I could name the members of the Beatles for $10 million - I couldnt name one member of the Gratefull Dead except for Jerry Garcia

Even namingthe Stones is a challenge

oh yeah sure... the fact that a lowly worm is able to name all four members of the band is proof that the band deserves to be named the greatest musical act ever...

You don't have to name them for them to be good.

Stones have also played in excess of 2k shows.

Your criticism is so original, in depth, and Earth shattering.


I'm not a big stones fan myself. But they are a real live rock n roll band - vs. a studio pop band.

whoa... nearly missed the sarcasm... almost went right over my head...

doesn't take away from the fact that the Stones have sucked since prolly before you were born... (I'm guessing you're, what, late 20's at the most...?)
