I find it sad that this tread exists yet no thread was made for yesterday.
lennon said all his songs were nothing more than rip-offs of chuck berry; nothing could surpass Maybelline.I remember once reading a musician saying there are two kinds of people in rock: those who rip off The Beatles and those who don't know they are ripping off The Beatles. I recall it was in reference to the pop artists of today who don't know how the foundation of rock music was built.
I'm one of the few people who prefers their songs before Sgt. Pepper.
I was in junior high when Lennon was killed. It was as big as Elvis' death.
Sadly George Harrison is always overlooked as a creative force. Perhaps the Beatles themselves undervalued him, but after the Beatles his early years as a solo artist were more successful than John or Paul.
So true.
Rubber Soul was really the line dividing the Fab 4 era from the psychedelic. The thing that's remarkable about the Beatles is between the time from when they became famous until they broke up was only 10 years. During that time they put out 13 studio albums. NOBODY today does that. Their entire evolution from the kids on Ed Sullivan to the role models for the hippie generation took place during this brief period. The world changed and they were driving.
