What is important is that they were a conduit to bring it to the masses? They admitted to being heavily influenced by Buddy Holly, The Beach Boys and the Byrds and I name those off the top of my head. I'm not sure they ever tried to take credit for everything. Well maybe McCartney did and does...

I think you had to live through their rise to realise just how massive their influence was. No band or singer has come remotely close since imo.

I'll start with Gregory Porter
