Quote:
I always viewed The Beatles more as the greatest pop band, but not a hard-edged rock band like The Who or The Stones. But IMO they were great at that genre, and would cite the following as evidence of their pop greatness; Eleanor Rigby, Norwegian Wood, the entire Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album, most of the "white album", Paperback Writer, Lady Madonna, I Am The Walrus, The Fool on the Hill, Get Back, Hey Jude, and Let It Be for starters. To paraphrase Barry, this music was organically and intrinsically part of those times.
Seriously, is there a hookier song than She Loves You?
Speaking for me, I used to be a savant when it came to music, but I was never much of a player. I was the guy with longest hair and the PA, so I was qualified to "sing". But I was/ am a huge music fan.
