    The Beatles definitely and I may see that tribute band "the fab 4" in Clearwater soon.

    But my fav has to be Pink Floyd. I remember tripping on some really good acid back in 87 for their Momentary lapse Of Reason Tour. Then again for 3 more of their concerts...

    The Beatles were legendary.
    It's often said that each song on the White Album could have been broken into 4 different songs.
    Paul and John had way too much creativity in their hands.

    I voted for the Rolling Stones, The Beatles can't be classed as rock surely.

    Regarding Rolling Stones. Listen to 'Ruby Tuesday'. One of their first singles was a cover of the Beatles' 'I want to be your man'.

    Excerpt from a Garcia biography that describes the Beatles:
    "The Beatles were why we turned from a jug band into a rock and roll band," said Bob Weir (Founding member of the Grateful Dead).

    Kurt Cobain wrote 'About a Girl' after listening to 'Meet the Beatles' for three straight hours.

    U2 covered 'Helter Skelter' and performed 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' at the Live 8 concert in London.

    Eddie Van Halen was influenced by The Beatles.

    (There are too many rock musicians influenced by The Beatles to mention. Just Google it.)
