    Beatles, definitely. Elvis ruined more good blues songs than the Rolling Stones. The Beatles, on the other hand, did "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band." Period.

    I must say, though, that I perfer the Byrds; they do similar music to the Beatles, but they do songs that are more like the Beatles songs I prefer- i.e. "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" and "For the Benifit of Mr. Kite." (Comparable to "Wasn't Born to Follow", for example.)

    Beatles generally used to be compared against Rolling Stones..Interesting..

    Whatever..I can not put both on the same track so I can not compare them.. I like them both..

    I'd have to say Elvis, the beatles just don't cut it for me...
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    Beatles, mainly because of where I am from. (If I said Elvis I would disappear).

    Elvis was more than great , but the Beatles were (are) the best musicians since Bethoven , period .
