One note: pop music by definition is viewed differently depending on perspective.
If you were 13 in 1962, the Beatles was the most amazing band ever.
If you were 19, the Stones was WAY cooler, much more the street band and avant garde of the time. The Beatles all cheesy pop music! Plus they can barely play their instruments.
If you were 35 in 1962, you may well have thought the Beatles absolutely sucked, 3 chord garbage. Give me the big band that was at least comprised of musicians who could play.
