re: Who has the more diverse, detailed music? Steely Dan vs. Led Zepplin, Beatles, etc

I think that people who want to argue for the Beatles realize -- though they won't admit it -- that their catalog doesn't stand up. Their music has not aged nearly as well as several of their contemporaries. And so they try to make up for this deficiency by seeing how many times they can use the words "influential", "important", or the like. It makes me queasy.

Bottom line: I realize that everyone has their own personal taste and opinion of music but this is without a doubt the most asinine statement I have ever heard.
