And as far as scales, I could give a shit which they used. As far as Im concerned it has nothing to do with their music. People listen to The Beatles because it's catchy, memorable and timeless, not because they used different scales.
The Beatles first original or no covers album. "A Hard Days Night" 1964. The Rolling Stones first original or no covers album "AfterMath" 1966. The Beatles were scoring their huge hits with all their own songs. It does not matter I love the Stones and the Beatles.
