Ahh, yes. Good ol' "Mo".

Talk about "but she gets it while she can"...with George, as it turned out.

Ahh, those incestuous little Beatles.

Just a little bit of goss.

Still sounds pretty freaking good to me. I can recall how when I first started hearing this on the radio I began to sing along, and when I got to the part where he says, "for some California grass," my mother shook her head and my father chuckled. Some years later, I had to chuckle myself. I loved their cleverness, their daring, and above all, their musical genius, which still blazes brightly through so many layers of Time...

Anybody find it funny that this comment is to a song that was recorded live on a rooftop?

midreaming, ya probably felt a bit of self-gratification that you could put together a seemingly poignant set of sentences that expressed your thoughts. Too bad they are rendered meaningless because your context was all horked to hell.

I have to agree.
It's easy to slag a band for whatever political reasons might offend us. The thing is, and it is, really, that the music is the important thing. The studio, the production team, the drugs, the girls, they're not really important at all. Not to me, anyway.

I actually spent last night listening to The White album and Abbey Road, I just did as a lark....there is some truly amazing music on those two albums, regardless of who produced it, who wrote it, who took which drugs or who had which girl or when....

Music, people....keep your focus.

..discretion? ..this band is Not what you think they are. How's that for discreet? But really here's the way I like to put it -..the rock and roll soul of their music came from a producer and a million dollar studio.. or.. the 60's and 70's were a time that called for guts and honesty, not the Bangladeshi version of Love Me Do, and we've paid for the drug induced hyponosis they created ever since..(?) or Best of all -.. me thinks the money was a rollin' so hard for some, and the egos and the chicks were a rollin so hard for others.. and the poppers and the speed were a rollin' so hard for all the rest, that it's not hard to see why that train kept a rollin', so hard, all-night-long. ... into the next decade even.

the backing vocal of Mary Clayton on the Stones Gimme Shelter has more guts alone and is tougher and more honest than anything done by the Beatles. If rock isn't tough and honest what is it? I'll tell you, it's Pop, then it fades in relevance and becomes adult contemporary. ..not Rock and Roll and definitely not the timeless voice of a generation. Or wait ..maybe so.. Yes, That's It !! The Beatles! A timeless voice of their generation.. yup it fits.

I'm so over the Beatles. They are without doubt the most overexposed group on the planet. If I don't hear another of their songs for the next year or so, that'll be just fine, thanx.

Actually, you are incorrect.
