I heard Donald Trump likes jazz! :-)
The Beatles had good songs on all their albums and some filler songs. The Stones had a hand full of good songs over the years, most were filler songs.
‘Revolver’ was the Beatles best album imo. ‘I’m Only Sleeping’ was on the British album but not the US ‘Revolver’ album, one of their best songs, I think.
Where did you hear that? I have my doubts.
I thought Pet Sounds was much better.
I remember that. at Their Satanic Majesties a Request.
They say love is blind. I guess it is deaf, too.
Yep, without the drugs he might have made something of himself, become famous even. I don’t smoke that sh#t but I would love to sit and have a drink with him. Looking at him makes me feel young, not a day over 65.
Flower power sucks.
And applicable to many here on FR,
“what’s the ugliest part of your body? Some say your nose, some say your toes, but I think it’s your mind.”
To this day I still have trouble believing that Mick and Keith wrote those songs. But, I guess they really did.
Back then it was always Beatles vs Stones, but as time goes on, the Who has really held up.
The thing I’ve come to appreciate the Beatles is that they can be intense without rocking hard.
Case closed:
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she’s gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
And you’re gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Picture yourself on a train in a station
With Plasticine porters with looking-glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds [fade out]
I’m with you on Rubber Soul and Revolver. Not a fan of Sgt Pepper’s.
Did you catch this one?
