If you like 70's and 80's rock, it is absolutely an absurdity to say that the Beatles sucked. They only paved the way for everything rock that came after them.
I said that "late 70s - early 80s rock" was one of my preferred genres. I think that the Beatles are way overrated, and don't care for much of what was popular rock music between 1964 and 1975 or so. And I will throw in the fact that Ringo Starr was one of the luckiest people in history; what did he ever do creative on the skins? I know I am in the minority here, but so what. I was pinged to this thread and that is what I think.
