all their stuff is good IMO, but I admit to having a preference for the Rubber Soul+onward material, although the roots are planted with the Help soundtrack. I think it's here where they really began to set aside from the pack and the individual talents of Lennon, McCartney and Harrison began to stand out.

The Fab Four were the "best band in the land" (to borrow Ringo's words). No
doubt about it. Each member of the group carved out a successful solo
career. What other band can that be said about? That's an indication of
just how talented those four lads from Liverpool were. They have become
the yardstick that every band since is measured against. As for my personal
favorites:

Favorite album: Rubber Soul
Favorite songs: "Yesterday" (sung by Paul), "In My Life" (sung by John),
"Something" (sung by George), "Yellow Submarine" (sung by Ringo)

I loved their records, movies, even the Saturday morning cartoon (which they
really had nothing to do with). I have a big collection of Beatle memorabilia
and an even bigger collection of Beatle memories. Yeah, yeah, yeah! They
made history. I never got to see them in person, but I was with them in
spirit.

I love The Beatles too. They are so amazing and creative. Not to mention original. Gotta love that. I don't think they have a song that I don't like. :D

well, I hate Celine Dion type stuff also, but a good ballad is awesome. Norwegian Wood is a perfect example of a great one

I love The Beatles. They changed the landscape of popular music forever. The only three Bealtes songs that I don't like are "I Want to Hold Your Hand", "Yellow Submarine" and "Revolution #9". A couple of personal favorites include "The Long and Winding Road", "Across the Universe", "I Am the Walrus", "Hey Jude" and "Dear Prudence".

Well everybody has their favorites and I respect yours. But as far hits and record sales, the Monkees are no where near the Beatles.:)

I like the "Prefab Four" (as someone dubbed The Monkees), too--but even Micky
Dolenz once told an interviewer to not compare them to The Beatles. He
said, "Compare us to Bonanza." :lol:

Yes, George Harrison plays the sitar on "Norwegian Wood." He was just learning to play the Indian instrument.

You're selling Paul McCartney short. He was much more than a singer of
silly love songs (or "wimpy ballads," as you call them). He also sang "Long
Tall Sally," "I'm Down," "Helter Skelter," "Rocky Raccoon," and "Maxwell's
Silver Hammer." He was also the driving force behind their masterpiece,
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Paul rocks!

Speaking of which there is a book that came out recently that has interviews with fans from back in the day that got to see them in various concerts, those who were there at JFK when the Beatles first landed in the States, and those who saw them on The Ed Sullivan Show. Cant think of the title of the book offhand, but any Beatle fan should dig it, especially those who were not around in their day.
