They are the best-selling music act of all time

Truly iconic. I believe you had to have experienced their phenomenon during the 60's to really appreciate what they did and how they influenced the music industry.

Their long hair (not so long by today's standards) was shocking at the time.

What I really like about the early Beatles was the ease and smart-aleck way they handled the condescending press. The reporters of the day, totally befuddled by their sudden popularity, would often hit them with the most insulting and cringe-worthy questions. All four of the Beatles always had snappy answers, putting these stiffs in their places. By the end of the press conference, those reporters did not know what hit them.

The early Beatles were the best. Their music all the way up to Revolver, despite being "bubble-gummy" at times, was simply some of the greatest pop music ever created.

From Sergeant Pepper on, their catalog does not age as well in my opinion. Some of those later songs, like "I Am The Walrus" and "Maxwells Silver Hammer" are just hard to listen to.
