Be the Backstreet Boys of their era?
They played horribly dull pop songs reviled by old people as "greatness"
After they started taking drugs and split up, they got much better.
Lennon/McCartney are considered one of, if not, the best song writing teams. As a band their sound evolved from beginning to end, something difficult to accomplish ( ask AC/DC ) and maintain their popularity. Boy groups do not even compare and calling them a boy band is insulting. The Beatles wrote most of their own songs ( of course they covered some ) And played their own instruments of which they were very accomplished at in their own right. It could be argued and was that The Beatles played a large part in helping to reunite Germany And disband the Soviet Union and introducing eastern philosophy to the mainstream West. This band could never be over rated.
