the Beach Boys are better than The Beatles

is there any legitimate argument that Stinkum is NOT the best poster here?

For the record, my argument says that a black dude did a white dudes music better than the white dude.

both of them were more lucky than anything to be doing what they were doing and when. hendrix had the look though. his guitar skillz were phenomenal, but he was more a pop image than anything.

Pretty sure most people are well aware of the history of the music business defrauding african american artists to repackage music to white audiences.

Not sure what your point is, are you saying that white people are required to include a research project on the history of appropriating black music and attached apology if they ever want to casually mention that they enjoy an Elvis song?

That is some hasbinbad level white guilt you got there.

nope. trace the roots if anything. don't have white guilt cause i'm not appealing for an appeasement of anything. shit happens, learn what and how it happened, and then make a better future in the present. most of the artists that were the roots of those groups were, likely, more proud that the music was continuing through time. some of the songs are seen as entities in themselves that live through the artists regardless of who's playing (much like hbb's take on "all along the watch tower")
