I think that's a classic example of the so-called "spoiler" effect. Beatles fans will stand by their group, but the Stones fans here probably prefer the Kinks and the Who, hence the Stones' miserable showing.

Voted Yardbirds, in the end it was a tough choice between them, The Who, The Kinks and the Animals, but I feel the Yardbirds have been more consistent in the british invasion era (ie if you disclude the Who's later stuff)

I went Beatles. Am I the only one who has just never gotten into The Who?

No. I've never been able to get into The Who either. Looks like I was the only person to vote for The Animals on here so far.

I can`t get into them except for `The Who Sell Out.` Who`s next bores me.

I went with the Beatles. Out of the bands listed there, I could only make an informed judgement on the Beatles, the Kinks, and the Who, but I love the Beatles just cause of how their music progressed from being simple catchy pop songs to crazy experimental songs and back again.

I always really liked the kinks, and I'm surprised they have as many votes as they do...
