He altered the music scene, almost single handedly, taking it from a derivative sub-genre to music for all races. Kinda like a reverse Jackie Robinson. The Beatles were as much the role models for a generation as they were rock stars. They became a social movement at the time. Both Elvis and the Beatles were epic. I think more people identified in a personal way with the Fab Four. I like both, but I play my Beatles records more than my Elvis records.
