Also people forget the Beatles stop touring in 1966 and still had hit after hit.Go get Sgt Pepper and listen to it with a set of headphones, that was done on four tracks, all the insturments you hear were played live.
Go to their early albums with all the harmonizing, those were done on a two track, live in the studio .That means singing and playing at the same time.
What made Elvis great was he was the first white man to sell black music to a white audience no one had done that before him and to be very sexual in his moves. ED Sullivan only showed him from the waist up.What makes Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath so incredible,people don't understand there was nothing like their music before them it was totally new. These people were pioneers.
