They simply did (mostly) everything first, including Pete Townshend's infamous feedback.
This is why it's the Beatles and everyone else.
The Who "lasted" from 1964-1978 with Keith Moon (the only lineup that matters) but officially broke up in 1982. They DID "last" longer than The Beatles but only recorded 10 studio albums vs. The Beatles 13 (in half the time).

just to clarify my comment earlier, Pete used feedback as a part of his noise as music repetoire, but it came later and I'm pretty sure not from The Beatles. and that repetoire I don't think, could be defined by feedback.
