Elvis Vs The Beatles and Rolling Stones

I was twelve years old when Elvis made his first TV appearance. The next school day, any of the girls who had seen it were ostracized as sluts. I hadn't seen it only because we didn't get that channel.
 
Out of the three for me it has to be the Stones.
Great rock, psychedelia, pop etc with a rebellious streak. Pre’80 they were a raw band and every member had a story to tell.
I love to see Keith Richards singing Happy… even though I grew up with the Clash singing No Elvis, Beatles or Rolling Stones in 1977!

Also there were many other great bands around at that time who went under the radar. My mum intrduced me too this era of music as i was born in 1973.
 
Really hard to compare well certainly Elvis different era but in Stones v Beatles always the Stones for me knocking out the Last Time when the Beatles were wanting to hold hands or someone loved you no contest! :)
