The Beatles

Great reviews Davey. I have to admit to not playing The Beatles in years now. I may have to get around to them again one day soon.



I am with you. I remember when I first heard Revolution 9 thinking it was an amazing sounRABcape. I have never read it anywhere but it has to be influenced by say the John Cage/Terry Riley's of this world. These people where using prepared instruments, tape looping and using found sounRAB, sampling in today's language, long before anyone else. Also as early as the 1940's there was a movement called Musique concr
 
By the way one of the most surprising moments on the Love album was the combination of Good Night from the White Album and Octopus's Garden from Abbey Road. It actually made Octopus's Garden beautiful, which is damn hard.
 
its not very consistent, but it has some of the best songs in their catalog(back in the ussr, dear prudence, helter skelter, i will, julia, martha my dear, piggies, while my guitar gently weeps, ob-la-di ob-la-da and i have a soft spot for rocky racoon too...).
 
^ Killed em' dead and she doesn't get enough blame either.

What a horrible cunt and I've had audible bowel movements more pleasing to the ear then her music.
 
besides, love is just a collection album. you couldn't really rate albums if they're just music from a bunch of previous albums, especially because the songs are just a few incomplete songs mashed together.
 
I know, it is somewhat better with the mixing of different songs, but they're shortened, so it's kind of like something that's very different. "Because" on that album can scare the **** out of you because of it's silent intro, and you're waiting... waiting... waiting... and if you got on high volume, someone gonna jump out of their seat.
