Speaking about the Beatles...here's a nice little appropriate tune that The John , Justine and the rest of the turds can dedicate to Trumpty Dumpty.

Harrison to me was the "best" and "coolest" Beatle.
I never really got the Beatles. They had about a half dozen good songs
combined (solo and the group).
Most of it was commercial crap. They were stoned when they recorded it
and you needed to be stoned to enjoy it. We all live in a yellow
submarine? Really?
I was a Motown guy. They had music in their music. (Or maybe it was
just the SE DC influence).



Half a dozen "good songs"?
The big thing about them was that the majority of the tunes in their 13 or so albums were "good".
Sure they had a few fillers like Yellow Submarine and those sitar musicals from Harrison but otherwise you got your money's worth.

I bet you thought "I want to hold your hand" was musical genius.



You sound like my Dad.
That tune used to drive him nuts. Even worse was One More Rainy Day by Deep Purple.
Go back and listen to the Rubber Soul and Revolver albums. That's where they got really good...in my humble opinion.
