Finess said:

Ever heard PMDAWNS version of Coconuts on Jesus Wept? He sings that in the middle of that song.. its pretty tight, a excellent nudge to the beatles

Absolutely! The White Album is one of the most awesome albums ever made by anybody.

I can't imagine a Beatles hater exists that has heard this album. Most haters think it's all "Help" "Love Me Do" and "Can't Buy Me Love" pop-ditties.

sad sad.

I've got "1". Speaking of Beatles, I'm reading "Party of One: The Loners' Manifesto" and I had no idea that Lennon was a "loner" and "aloof".

Got to love Revolver!

been awhile since i was on a Beatles kick, but whenever i hear them, it sends me off on one for a few minutes

White Album rules!

I will also say. My favorite Paul McCartney album ever is the "McCartney" album.. Its an excellent driving record, and it has simply aged wonderfully.. Its kindof home/garage sounding, but now its digitally remastered, and its an album for every beatle fan.

The Beatles =

I don't understand people that don't like them either...just doesn't make any sense!!!

I'm always on a Beatles kick, and I agree Dawn...The White Album is one of their best (trades 1st place with Abbey Rooad with me constantly). The best Lennon ever did is on The White Album imo.

The White album is awesome.

I think Lennon hit his peak as a writer from '66-'69.

I agree with you - good point. The Beatles are one of the greatest bands ever.

What a trip, me too and I've never really been into them before but lately I've been gravitating towards them. Thanks for the brain push, DJ.

well, just know

I think that when paul was in the White album period to the time he left the Beatles with wings is when his best vocal performance was displayed. Check the Wings Over America.. He sings Maybe Im Amazed better than the origanel.. He could hit any note he wanted to at that period..

I think my favorite vocals could go like this (in no paticular order)

Helter Skelter
Monkberry Moonlight
OOh You
Maybe Im Amazed
Beware My Love
Somedays
Here Today
Why Dont We Do It In The Road
Oh Darling
really, its endless..

I'll post back on my favorite john and george tracks..

Co-sign.

Prince would have been a lot less important in the 80's without the Beatles being forced on him by Wendy and Lisa.

I'm pretty sure he would've discovered them with or without W&L.

I tend to listen to The Anthologies alot, especially 2, Sgt. Pepper's, Rubber Soul, The Beatles1 and Revolver. My fave songs runs the gamit from their early teenybopper days to the serious we are about to break up period. They just have a rich catalog and weren't afraid to break out of the boxes that I'm sure they were placed in when they first took the world by storm, and especially USA. I'm more of a Lennon fan at heart, but the combo of he and Paul is timeless. I taped a radio station's A-Z of The Beatles which was a 10 hour show of all the singles, and some trivia. That's my first thing in the morning music. It's an amazing collection of work.

Fave Beatles remake: Baby It's You

i sing when i do this with musical buddies) tell me what you see...hey jude (the last verse...lennon dead on with
paul's sweet vocal) thank you girl (paul's parts a bitch)
baby's in black (check out the bridge..oh how long would it take...mannn) all i gotta do..theres a place...
norweigen wood...

those 2 brits was alright
and this is coming from a DIE-hard doo-wop vocal group FREAK!
