The Beatles

If you aren't going to back up then you are the one who is acting immature and this thread is pointless spam which should get locked and you may as well get a warning with it for spamming. If all you're going to do is state your dislike for The Beatles then post in The Beatles thread.
 
"We wrote a lot of stuff together, one on one, eyeball to eyeball. Like in 'I Want To Hold Your Hand,' I remeraber when we got the chord that made the song. We were in Jane Asher's house, downstairs in the cellar playing on the piano at the same time. And we had, 'Oh you-u-u/ got that something...' And Paul hits this chord, and I turn to him and say, 'That's it!' I said, 'Do that again!' In those days, we really used to absolutely write like that
 
Sgt Peppers has never really turned me on, its only little bits that shine for me (the intro, 'A Day In The Life'). The White Album is great, as is Abbey Road. Help! has found a place in my heart lately as well.

Revolver is my fav, pop music at its best, catchy yet pushing boundaries.
 
I just thought i`d point out that you chose the gig they played 2 days after Brian Jones died & that it was their first gig with Mick Taylor who`d been in the band a matter of days.
 
Pete Townsend is a twat
I hate the ****er

anyway

John lennon acknowledged that Chuck Berry was a big influence and even referred to him as 'Mr Rock and Roll'

all music comes from the blues but that doesnt mean the Beatles didnt start something new.

Elvis is only revered the way he is today and was back then because he was the first white man to sing the blues his music wasnt revolutionary and he didnt bring anything to music, he was just a pretty white face bringing a style of music that had existed for decades before to wider and white audience in a just world we'd have millions of Robert johnson and Muddy Waters impersonators rather than Elvis ones and it would be a guy dressed as Howlin Wolf posing as a minister and marrying you in Las Vegas.

The Beatles werent clean cut suit wearing, pleasant boys when they started playing in England and germany

they were scruffy laRAB jumping around like lunatics on stage and talking to the audience and even chatting up women during their sets, they hated the idea of wearing suits on stage looking liek cliff richard and the shadows. Their true image and attitude and outlooks on life and how music should be was illustrated in their revolutionary never before heard sound. Thank god for brian Epstein otherwise The Beatles may have never been broad to the worlRAB attention
 
I have All Things Must Pass, wonderful, cultish, hare krishna- religious stuff. Great album. It's very obvious that Elliott Smith was heavily influenced by George's solo stuff. All the way down to the method of recording the vocals he took from George.
 
i am aware of these banRAB, as my colleague spencer who i feel is a better drummer than most of the cheeky ****ers that get into the business today is part of a band playing just for the thrill of it.

and you know what really pisses me off, R.A.T.M, yea i loved their music, wow they had an amazing message, then i find out they were charging $50 a ticket to their shows when all this time theyd been singing about commercialism and how money corrupts fragile people, sickening,
 
no boy band, or band in general has ever been as popular as the beatles. i dont think they made revolver, sgt peppers, [self titled], abbey road (-albums that are pretty much synonymous with beatles), just by being white, pleasant looking, and dressing the same.
