The Day the Music Died

[Churchill]

I loved You're Sixteen ... yes, I got to admit Ringo sang some good songs too.

But it was the prodigious good songwriting that made L & M great.

No, I didn't mind George. Bit of a hippy though. Opened a Hare Krishna temple in Letchmore Heath near where I lived. Used to see them wandering about in their orange gear.

Ahem, isn't it "M & L" these days?

Jings Wendigo !

And Ive been singing Youre Fourteen all these years , lucky Ive not be locked up...well not yet.

Also It Dont Come Easy was pretty good and I did like Ringos vocals On a Little Help from my Friends.

George was my fav Beatle , Living in the Material World and All Things Must Pass take pride of place in my illustrous album collection, which I think DundeeGeorge seems to be obsessed about.

Some say that just looking through my album collection is enough to get them stoned.

You can't imply that Ringo has no talent. Thomas the tank engine didn't have a voice before Ringo. Now all trains have a scouse accent.

It's surprising (was to me anyway) how many other drummers rate Ringo as one of their influences. No big ego, just good work.

[BlasterBates]

Yes basically Ringo just knocked the sh*t out of the drums.

Sounded good though.

I missed that. Perhaps you're thinking of a Gary Glitter number.

Beatles et al

Some good music, but overrated IMHO. Not much better than the equivalent of Take-That in their day, which says as much about the dearth of decent music then as it does now...still Take That at least had decent videos.

Like some of JL's music (Watching the wheels etc....) but too SUHOA for my liking, and Yoko..don't get me started...
