Not exactly specified, plus the odd paths that are MB's bants.

Trying to dismiss The Beatles is akin to trying to dismiss Coltrane, Davis, Williams, Jackson, Holly, Wilson, Brown, Wonder, and many others. Look up the word 'foundation'.

There's not a single rock or pop band post 1970 that wasn't heavily influenced, either directly, or indirectly by The Beatles. Even all of the extreme metal that came decades later benifited from the trickle down affect of their influence.
Chula sounds like the kinda guy who thinks the vocals from the Who's "Boris the Spider" was an influence on death metal.

^ It was Spectralmusic who opened the door. He barely commented on the music of Sgt.Pepper, but disparaged the Beatles as "drugged up Brits" and (continues to) dismiss pre-Pepper rock too. He then took the opportunity to air what appears to be a pet peeve about fans and over-analysis, so Chula was perfectly entitled to comment on the Beatles influence, etc.
