A lot of people only hear I Want to Hold your Hand, Love Me Do and Can't Buy Me Love and think that's all there is to the band and never bother listening to their music in the mid-late 60s.
I think the opposite is true. Their 1967-1970 stuff gets worshiped so much (and a lot of that is deserved) that people forget the first half of their careers they were the 1960s version of the Backstreet Boys.

1996 Backstreet Boys Live
1964 Beatles Live
Other than the screaming girls, these are not the same. The early Beatles energy was special. They sound good even playing through primitive equipment and not being able to hear themselves. In 1964, this was a totally new sound.

You can't compare just the music or style of music. You have to compare first, the music that came before each band and then to that of their peers. The Beatles were at the right place and time to help change popular music. The Backstreet Boys were copying from acts three decades old.
The Beatles may not have been best musicians, but they were great song writers and as mentioned in a post from a week or to ago, they were lucky to be found by George Martin. Together they moved popular music forward.

To compare the Beatles, even their 1960-65 version, IN ANY WAY to the Backstreet Boys is an insult to music, the Beatles' legacy, and musicianship
