I borrowed the Anthology from the library, but I would like to have it. There are some great quotes in there.

All Things Must Pass is on the top of my birthday list. I hope I get it.:)

NP: Don't Let Me Down (love this song:cool: It should have been on Let It Be, now I have to buy ...Naked)

I got Magical Mystery Tour and Revolver yesterday.

It's pretty ironic that a cd (MMT) with such a happy cover can sound so "minor" and creepy.

Listening to "I Am The Walrus" with headphones on is so much better than I've ever heard it on the radio. I've found a new love for this song. I also like "Blue Jay Way" a lot too.


EDIT: Every song on this cd sounds better with headphones. The production is amazing.

I feel that the cover only adds to the creepyness

MMT is definitely one of my favorite Beatles albums. It gets no love though... it's sad.

DeusExMachina 06-08-2005 02:03 PM

Question: Are we doing the cover thread competition? If so, what song(s) do you all want to do?

evilmenhavenosongs 06-08-2005 02:04 PM

I only like three The Beatles songs, all are on MMT.

Blue Jay Way
The Fool On THe Hill
I Am The Walrus.

A lot of their other songs annoy me or I'm just apathetic about them but I've heard nowhere near their entire catalogue. Which songs do the have that are similar to the ones I like?

Oh and Penny Lane annoys the hell out of me. Grrrr.

robo2448 06-08-2005 02:31 PM

Well those are all on MMT so I'd suggest you buy that cd and see if you like that whole cd, if I had to recommend 1 song to listen to first though, it would Strawberry Fields Forever, which is also on MMT. Buy Sgt. Pepper's too, as that is similar to MMT, as are certain songs on Revolver.

evilmenhavenosongs 06-08-2005 02:33 PM

I've got MMT, they were the only songs I really liked on it though. I'll see about Sgt. Pepper's, any specific songs?

JonG 06-08-2005 02:37 PM

Have any of you seen that Penny Lane tribute? I'd love to be in that band..

I probably saw that in here..


NP : Ticket To Ride by The Beatles(duh)

Being For the Benefit of Mr.Kite scares me :( (Its on Sgt. Peppers)

'sup thread :wave:

I finally got round to ripping Revolver to my pooter today, its an alright album, I'll probably have to listen to it a few times to like it more.

For my Music Tech Arrangement 1 I got to mess around and butcher Eight Days A Week, it was....interestingly fun.

Ooh ooh, I remember this song! I sang it when I was in Primary School! <3 I was Henry The Horse!

I love that song.

I like I'm So Tired as well, I think I seem to like the darker songs more.

robo2448 06-08-2005 03:26 PM

I'm So Tired is on The White Album, my personal favorite. I didn't recommend it for you because the songs listed were all psychadelic and The White Album isn't psychadelic, rather it's a mixture of almost every genre.

Hey, I was in Year 5. :mad:




I think there's video evidence...

If there is, I want to see it.

Video evidence of that would be dag. You should produce it.

I recommend the white album. It seems like their darkest album to me. Not all of it is dark by a long shot, but it is more so than any other album.

Walrus Gumboot 06-09-2005 09:49 AM

I have done 8- days a week and have the basslines to countless Beatles songs stored in my memory

DeusExMachina 06-09-2005 11:24 AM

Anyone know many Beatles songs for any instrument?

I can play some of their stuff on guitar and piano, and can learn more pretty easily.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]Anyone know many Beatles songs for any instrument?

Bass
Harmonica
Trombone (if absolutly nessecary)

JonG 06-09-2005 01:13 PM

I can play Yellow Submarine, While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Haven't tried much else.


NP : Let It Be

MalcolmYoungRock 06-09-2005 05:11 PM

It would be really awesome if we could do a George Harrison tribute of While My Guitar Gently Weeps for the cover thread contest.

magicbus 06-09-2005 09:49 PM

I only know a few, but I can probably handle most of their songs. Right now I know While My Guitar Gently Weeps (chords and almost all lead) and I know most of I Want You. But like I said, I'd be happy doing any song.

xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx 06-09-2005 10:27 PM

I know a few, but just about any one should be learnable. Wait...I don't think I can record.:( While My Guitar Gently Weeps would be great for the rest of you to do, though. That's my favorite Harrisong.

magicbus: Where did you get the lead and chords? I've found some, but none I looked at were very accurate.

I learned the chords from a Beatles songbook I got from the library one time, and I'm trying to learn the lead by listening to the song. That's why I said almost all the lead, because I still have to figure out some parts.

GeorgeHarrison 06-09-2005 10:32 PM

i like to play i feel fine on my guitar naked in my basement, but thats just me.

thickasabrick 06-09-2005 11:00 PM

I dunno if this has been mentioned, or if any of you get this program where you live but...

Has any of you been watching A Long and Winding Road? If you haven't seen it before, it's basically just a very indepth documentary about the Beatles. It's went through their lives so far (after three hour long episodes) and so far they are only at about the time Pete Best left. So I'm looking forward to the upcoming episodes.
