The Beach Boys Aw come on, you mean these surf jockeys that took London by storm in 1966 and in the NME contest that year pulled #1 band right from under John Lennon's beak? And all this while Brian stayed home alone and began his second sonic masterpiece, Smile - (the first being Pet Sounds which was the inspiration for Sgt Pepper)
Nah, no way these dudes could come anywhere close to being "better than the Beatles". They were just that other band on Capitol Records. /s

They were just that other band on Capitol Records. /s Arrangements wise and song writing Brian was a genius. But Carl and Dennis both were great musicans as well. Karl had Brian's voice range and then more to add. He also was a fantastic guitar player. Jardine was highly underrated. Mike Love later on after the court fights with Brian needed to let the past be the past and play the music.
There's no doubt The Beach Boys had The Beatles looking over their shoulders.
