The Beatles or The Silver Beats?

Personally, I prefer The Beatles. With their songs revolutionized the world of music and conquered many hearts. The Beatles were popular in many countries and in their concerts there were million people. Their arrival triggered the musical revolution of the Sixties, introducing a modern sound and viewpoint that parted ways with the world of the previous decade. The Beatles ignited the latent energy of youth on both sides of the Atlantic. They helped confer self-identity upon a youthful, music-based culture that flexed its muscle in myriad ways - not just as music consumers but also as a force for political expression, social commentary and contemporary lifestyles. Actually, eveybody remember the story they created with their music and tribute bands, like The Silver Beatle, play and sing their songs. Their music is not dead.

During their career, the group primarily consited of John Lennon (rhytm guitar, vocals), Paul McCartney (bass guitar, vocals), Gorge Harrison (lead guitar, vocals) and Ring Star (drums, vocals). Although their initial musical style was rooted in 1950s rock and roll and skiffle, the group worked with different musical genres, ranging from Tin Pan Alley to psychedelic rock.
