The Beatles

If it's related to creepy french people in weird costumes, don't rely on it to be good.

what

[Danger Bird]

Love was the soundtrack to a Cirque de Soleil show.

Here's to the most sweetest person of all time. :chug:
I've heard he was sort of an asshole in private. I don't really know though.

[Leper]

Love is incredible. It kept me from getting to bed on time last night. Well done Martins'.

He maybe was in the beginning, but he had redeemed later on in life.

There's very few people who say he was an asshole, mainly his ex-wife. Which doesn't say a whole lot :lol:

[Ephemeral]

That bitch. I liked his first wife.

shhhhhh she didn't exist

>__________>


Also, speaking of Please Please Me on the last page, I've been listening to that single quite a bit lately. It's brilliance is astounding.

[Seafroggys]

Please Please Me is such an awesome song. One of my favorite early Beatles tunes.

I really love that reverb they have on their vocals for their first album. I'm sure its a result of the recording techniques of the day (lots of room ambience as opposed to close micing) but its so cool sounding.

Reverb on microphones is pretty common today too. They just achieve it differently.

[Ephemeral]

The double tracked vocals always made the songs kind of glisten in my ears, as well as the reverb on the early singles and albums.

well duh, they use actual reverb units, have been since at least the late 60s. The reverb on Please Please Me though is much different....more faded, more lush. It actually feels like distance in a room.

And yeah, back before ADT, the manual double track sounds so cool, especially on "I Shoudl Have Known Better." Has anybody else noticed that Paul gets considerably off during his double track take on "All My Loving?" I can't remember the part, but I always noticed it, before I knew about the double tracking technique.

[TheDMV]

Off like pitch or off like rythm?

[Seafroggys]

off rhythm

I know what you mean, 'A Taste of Honey' has such a dreamy feeling to it

[Leper]

Paul probably didn't like the rythm of the song and decided to create his own.

[Interviewer/surveyer]

Its good to see a beatles thread, they were the first band I ever got into when I was like 6 or 7. Id say I like their newer stuff more, but I like their old stuff too. You can't go wrong with Sgt. Pepper's....

Yes, you can. The middle bit is pretty boring (relatively speaking, it kicks the *** generally speaking).

Sgt. Peppers is a great album. There are a few off tracks, but I can't think of one album ever made that contains all brilliant tracks...there is at least one minor flaw on even the greatest of albums.

[guitrguy]

I really don't like Lovely Rita

[Seafroggys]

I really don't like Lovely Rita

that's one of their better songs on the album, in fact, its the end of the dry spell.

Better albums than Sgt. Pepper's? Try Magical Mystery Tour, the White Album, and Abbey Road for starters :D

I own most of The Beatle's discography. I used to be guitrguy if you remember when I used to post under that moniker.

[Seafroggys]

So I saw Across the Universe this weekend. Many people said it was ****, I loved it though.

[guitrguy]

I have yet to see that. I need to find a chick to take to it.

[Skyler]

Is that the movie that only uses Beatles songs?

[guitrguy]

Yep.
