The Beatles were and to this day the most overrated, over-credited group in the history of show biz. They were GOOD not GREAT. And the Beach Boys were "better" on so many different levels- they made better music, they had a cooler image, they made longevity and the brilliance of Brian Wilson was head and shoulders above the McCartney/Lennon/Martin team or whatever you wanna call it. Pet Sounds for one is better than any Beatles album, Good Vibrations was better than any Beatles single. The music speaks for itself. The Beatles were quantity, the Beach Boys are QUALITY!
