that's how i feel too.

i feel the beatles had an advantage over the beach boys .
even their transition to adapting to the 60's mindset was easier..
the beach boys were like and american tradition, their transition took time to appreciate. i tend to favour the BB just cause ppl favour the beatles. and to me the BB are equally good but very different.. yea, the songs sound alike, but then again, not at all..

i actually like Lenon's solo career better than the beatles.
