Sorry.  The fact you can't even spell the band's name disqualifies you from having any relevant opinion on them.

LOL!

but... going on that logic, HT's spelling (or lack thereof) disqualifies him from having any relevant opinion on programming? ;)

I like Revolver a lot but have grown to like the White Album more.

Even the Beatles early pop songs are pretty amazing when you listen to the chords used and the vocals/harmonies.

Some of the early songs  ( 1965 and before) that I feel are great examples of pure songwriting talent.... not much you can say bad about these:

A Hard Day's Night,  , I feel Fine, , Eight Days A Week, Help, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away, Ticket To Ride, Norwegian Wood, In My Life,  some were pop, others just plain unreal for their time.

Even at this early stage they were among the best songwriters ever seen in my opinion.  They simply got better and better and broke up after releasing probably their best yet, Abbey Road.

They did it all in about 7 years, changed music, changed culture and then went out on top. What more could any band ever hope to do?

Did you know that rumour has it that John Lennon agreed to let a much younger George Harrison join the band because he knew the most chords?

Few weeks later someone brought it.

:D


I'm drunk, but I dont' understand the 'brought it' part.  Could just be the alcohol.
