The Beatles were overrated

It’s true even with bands with dominant frontmen: take The Police, versus Sting as a solo artist. Whatever Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland contributed (and I’m not denigrating them here; I just don’t know enough about music to understand, let alone evaluate, their contribution), they made Sting as frontman of The Police a hell of a lot better than Sting ever was by himself.

To be honest, I think Sting is the most disposable member of the Police (though they all brought their talents and I think needed all three together to make it as they did.)
