 The only people who say that are those who are too young and don't understand the origins of their own favorite songs from today's music, or they just plain don't have an ounce of musical taste OR they completely utterly lack the sense to at least recognize the originality and genius this band displayed back in that era. Music today wouldn't be the same were it not for bands like the Beatles.
It's not that one HAD to be there, it's that they need to be able to appreciate the music, and the history of it. Listen to the Beatles and the albums of many other key bands from the time and someone with a true appreciation of the music and the history of rock can actually hear and visualize the history
 in the music.
Some of course need a chemical aid of some sort to facilitate said visions.
