Yeah, greats like Chuck Berry, Bobby Vinton, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Doris Day, etc. I’m here laughing my ass off. Boomers are *expecting* that people respect their music?

Those are all of the same generation as the Beatles except for Doris Day, who missed the Beatle's generation by 9 months. None of them, including the Beatles were boomers. Except for DD, they were all of Jane Fonda's/William Ayer's generation.

They were all ‘pre beatles’, and some quite substantially so.

Same Generation as the Beatles? No. Berry was born in ‘26. There’s 8 years between Elvis and George Harrison, which would be like saying the Beatles and Michael Jackson are the same generation.
