Yeah, "A Day in the Life" was such a great pop song.

Just look around, and you will find why they put that song on LP. There is a reason for that (quick hint - it has something with Ringo Starr)...Originally posted by DamageX

If you look at four of them, you will see that only PM made POP career...

You are missing the point, The Beatles, unlike say The Rolling Stones or Metallica didn't stick to one genre of music. They explored at one time or another, virtually every musical genre known... elements of country, classical, vaudville, psychedelic, Indian, motown and blues permeate their music.Originally posted by Soul_Rebel
but love me do was a great rock song? :-)
But any real student of The Beatles knows that the greatest influence on them was 50's rockers like Buddy Holly and Chubby Checker.
Saying that the Beatles were a "pop group" is nothing more than gross ignorance.Last edited by Joe Citizen; 09-06-2004, 07:05 PM.Comment

Stones didnt stick to one genre either. They have rock, jazz, reggae, blues songs and so on. We can argue for decades since I'm fan of bothOriginally posted by Joe Citizen

I wouldn't call them pop myself too. I hear many people calling beatles like the first pop group, but as you said that limits them a lot. We gotta stick to rock n' roll title

True, except The Beatles stopped recording together in 1969. ;)Originally posted by Soul_Rebel

Yes,no doubt Beatles were the band that influenced the most many of the later groups, greatest band of all the time. I remember like yesterday when I was 5-6 year old having a small tape player with a single tape, the most valuable one, a beatles collection tape.Comment

Give me a break with this Metallica shit, they're best song doesnt come close to the Beatles worst. The fuckin Monkees would rate higher than Metallica.Originally posted by DamageX
Fuck the Beatles, they were just a hippie version of today's Brit pop, they were never a rock band.
There can be only one: Metallica.Comment

As someone who lived through it I can tell you the Beatles changed everything. Listening to White Album & Sgt Peppers for the first time was awesome.
But not to forget the contribution made by these.
Bob Dylan, suddenly lyrics could mean something.
The Who or more Pete Townsend. Tommy is a masterpiece.
Pink Floyd, look at the sales of Dark Side and not a "Pop" record.
The Stones, Santana, Steppenwolf, The Who and Zepplin were all great live bands.
Clapton, Hendrix, Skynard, Alvin Lee, Page were all great guitarists.
Unfortunately I can hardly think of two bands formed after 75 who hold a candle to any of these. Any ideas why this was a Golden Time for music and now it's just dross?Comment

It'd be too difficult for me to tell which is my favorite rock band. Zeppelin would be high on the list, but there are groups like the Beatles that are phenomenol. Their music sounds "poppish" by today's standards but it's just incredible. The melodies and harmonies they made are taken for granted now and seem 'simple'. If they didn't exist you'd be hard pressed to find any group able to come up with the tunes they did. The Who, Hendrix, and Rolling Stones would be in there too.Originally posted by charly

On your point about after 1975. There are plenty of groups that continued the tradition of amazing music. Pearl Jam, Aerosmith (ok maybe they started in '73? I forget), and U2 to name some.
I don't know if we get stuck in a time period and atrophy but I feel the same way you do but the date changes; instead of 1975, maybe more like 2000. Nothing I've heard since then compares to the bands listed here. Part of this is that I simply don't listen to what's out now so I wouldn't know if there is a great group or not. I'd rather not be bombarded with hundreds of less than mediocre bands to find the new shining star.
What I wouldn't include in my list of favorite groups/artists are those that have a tradition of being overrated (Pink Floyd) or which became famous because of the mystic or cult aspect of the vocalist (The Doors - yes they were orginal but aside from the song "People Are Strange", there really isn't a great catalogue there; Jim Morrison is a cult icon and that's why The Doors legacy persists). I wouldn't include AC/DC (great band, but not enough variety - they follow a format you can predict for the most part) or Metallica (great band but more bad/rough guy image association and poor singing which does sound good with the music though).Last edited by Drake; 09-06-2004, 09:39 PM.Comment

I agree with ya. Although there were a few groups from the 80's that were decent, such as The Police, Genesis, Van Halen, none of them had the same depth as the supergroups from the 70's. Even the groups that continued on for decades for the most part put their best stuff out in that time. The only exception I can think of is Floyd with Animals and The Wall, both masterpieces. Even then Animals was put out in I think 1977 or 78.
I've always felt it was the record companies that fucked up music, pushing the airwaves with this Madonna and Wham crap in the eighties and it just went on from there.Comment

Naw the music industry isn't to blame. The well dried up. Like you said, all the groups that continued on didn't put out anything decent any longer. Groups like Guns N Roses and Nirvana that came along later had just as much depth as those 70's supergroups and are actually better than most of them.Originally posted by SuckOnThis
