Re: The Beatles are/were rubbish.

I loved the Beatles as a child and a teen and still think Revolver is a great record. Brilliant, even. All the other albums have some good songs but that's the only one that really gets me still. SPLHCB is super over-rated! And Let it Be? No thanks. Hey Jude? No way in hell.
Once I heard Odyssey and Oracle the Beatles lost a lot in my eyes...and then I heard all the other revolutionary sixties bands and, well, they just seemed mainstream. But there is nothing wrong with loving them. They were a good band but no band could live up to all the injk and hype foisted at them. It's not their fault people won't let it go. If no one had ever heard of them and you happened to hear those records, you'd probably be shouting from the rooftops about this amazing band you found! It's a fact: people cannot separate their dislike of a band's legacy and ardent following from the music of that band. Sad, but true. Except me, I can. I'm special.
