The Beatles

[minestrone]

What a great band.

[Malcolm Buggeridge]

Not really. Lennon and McCartney wrote good songs but thats about it.

To be a band you have to play live and IIRC the Beatles never played in anger after 1966. Apart from in the studio.

It's the Stones every time for me.

The stones are a blasphemy.

70 year old Jagger strutting about doing his little ass moves on the floor acting like he is some drug pusher in the swamps.

Who is kidding who here?

The beatlees finished when the time was good.

He's still got all the moves though has our Mick.

Watching poor old Macca is like looking at a cadaver going through the motions. Didn't you see him at the zjubilee?

The Beatles were good. The Stones were good. The Who were good. Credence Clearwater Revival were good. There is ****loads of good stuff out there and an awful lot of it happened before I was born. I wouldn't pay the preposterous prices involved to go and see any of them today when I can get it all on my interwebotron for free.

The Travelling Wilburys were quite good too. I watched a good TV programme about that recently.

Listeing to 'in my life' by the Beatles and listening to HAIM 'don't save me'.

Essentially the same drum beat, just a wee bit faster and with a modern spin.

Who says ringo was a crap drummer?

Oddly enough, my favourite Beatles song is Here Comes The Sun which was written by George Harrison.

I'll never forget spending 2 days in an oversized condom at the Reading Rock Festival. It was wet, man, it was wet. Then, when there was a chink in the clouds and we caught a glimpse of the sun that song went out over the PA. Don't think it was their version though. May have been Cockney Rebel.

Edit: my memory serves me bad. I was in "canvas city" at a different festival.

Lennon. When he was asked if Starr was the best drummer in the world he replied that he was.t even the best drummer in the Beatles.
