no it issent, any band can be put against eachother, ANY AT ALL Big smile,

and both bands are very influentual, and very very high quality, and Roxy is a very much repsected rock band, maybe not as much as the Beatles, but the band have credibility, and is intelegent enough to go over some peoples heads,

This is a massacre.  Dead  Roxy has their place, and I like them a lot, but it is far below that of the Beatles.

The Beatles, but Roxy Music is one of my favourite groups and have been just as influential IMO.
A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

If I was to compare the Beatles last 4 against Roxy Music's first 4 albums, yeh could possibly do that but  Beatles would probably still win.For the entire discography - no contest.
