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
YellowSubmarine 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 andRevolveralbums.
That's where they got really good...in my humble opinion. Whatever
rings your bell I guess. I doubt there is a Beatle song I haven't
heard. I stand by my "half dozen" comment. They are a

cult

band that could fart in the mike and get their fans to buy the
record. I think they have pretty much said that in interviews.On
those albums there were only a couple songs each that actually got
much air play unless you were listening to an all night album
show.I had pretty much all their vinyl albums and a few

45s.Later
on
in the 80s my brother-in-law bought the Beatles Box of supposedly
superior recordings and copied the whole set onto good
qualitycassette tapes for me.Finally, I bought all the albums in CD
format and put them on my I Pod that I listen to up to this day.
Sounds like you are a huge fan. Nothing wrong with being a fan boy.

https://piaohong.s3-us-west-2.amazon...t/index.htmlAs were
a huge numbers of otherpeople.Who did y'all like, Justine....the
Spice Girls?I liked Barbara, Elvis, Motown. the Beatles appealed
more to the preteen girl set, but I did hear some of their music. How could you miss

it.
They
were the Taylor Swift of their time.Barbara Lewis?

Who's that?
I was just trying to figure out what Barbara you were talking about.
Barbara Mandrell?

Barbara Lewis was a somewhat famous R&B singer from Detroit in the 60s
and 70s but I don't think she ever had a Motown contract.
"Hello Stranger", "Baby I'm Yours" sort of stuff.


I assumed he was talking about Stresiand but you never can tell with
those southern boys.
I certainly hope not. She spells her name
"Barbra" so as not to be
confused with all of those shikzas. That would be embarrassing for a
bay area boy.
If this gets out Bill may never be able to show his face in the Castro
again. ;-)



Say what?
Are you saying our Kalif Swill hangs out in that Castro District?
It would explain a lot.


It was a joke, lighten up.


He is jealous we live near there. Use to work not far from there and Polk
