I was pretty much stuck with the Beatles earlier years until I was about 15. Up until that time the only Beatles album I'd ever really listened to was their '62-'66 album. I'd heard a few of the later singles here and there, but mostly just the early stuff.

Those are good albums for infants, phsychedelia and children's stuff can be so easily interchanged: ex. Alice and Wonderland and SPLHCB

:lol: I was thinking the same thing but didn't know how to say it. Well done. :thumb:

The only Beatle album I've actually bought is MMT. My parents have the other major ones that I can easily borrow plus they're are ripped onto my computer/mp3 player.

When I was in pre-school my favorite movie was Yellow Submarine....still is too :D (but there was a 7 year time frame where I didn't see it)

robo2448 09-12-2005 01:49 PM

The first Beatles album I owned was Rubber Soul. Then I bought Revolver right afterward, and stole most of the other's from my parents. My parents had 1, Sgt. Pepper's, and With the Beatles. I stole Help and Abbey Road from my brother, and bought Rubber Soul, Revolver, MMT, White Album, and Let it Be myself,

Leper 09-12-2005 01:51 PM

It's funny how sometimes things all come back to your childhood. For instance, my first favourite band was actually the Beatles, then I went through a long period in which I nearly ignored them entirely. Now, for about a year, I've been hopelessly addicted to them yet again.

Lunch 09-12-2005 02:08 PM

That happened to me with The Who. From when I was born until I was about 10, they were my favorite band, then I got out of them for awhile. In the past three years I got obsessed with them again.

Broken Arrow 09-12-2005 02:18 PM

My first Beatles album was MMT.

Woodstock 09-12-2005 02:19 PM

My first was Abbey Road. My dad was listening to Sun King, and I thought it was the coolest song I'd ever heard. (was 12, keep in mind)

Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass are probably my two favorite books ever. So good.

I never bought a Beatles album, because my dad has owned them all for as long as I can remember.

sumpwa 09-12-2005 11:00 PM

my favorite beatles song is "Get Back"

That song is fantastic, its just relaxing listening with an intoxicating, spaced-out effect. :cool:

puppetmaster33 09-13-2005 05:03 AM

My fave song is The End, Which happens to be the last Beatle song recorded. The only song with a drum solo. And three guitar solos by Paul, George and John. :)

Glass Onion 09-13-2005 05:15 AM

That drum solo was also written and recorded by Paul, Since Ringo stormed out the studio in a paddy over something.

McCartney is just an all around amazing Musician.

I think the only Beatles albums I've bought is the Anthologys because my Dad pretty much had everything on Vynl and CD multiple times. Like I've got 3 copys of the White album, 2 average Vynls and the Third is one of the numbered ones. I never play that one.

DeusExMachina 09-13-2005 02:41 PM

I wish I had a decent record collection. All my dad's old records were lost when our house burnt down.

bcf717 09-13-2005 02:56 PM

That's a shame.... Most my vinyl's have gone the way of the yard sale many moon ago. The only collections I keep still now, are; Bowie, The Who, Elton John, some Rod Stewart and Talking Heads. There are few other artists in there but not complete vinyl collections. Oh yeah...of course I have Beatles on vinyl; all and solo career from Capital, EMI/Parlophone and Apple. Everything is CD now so I keep the collection simple. My best original records are the Beatles first album in America on VeeJay Records, MMT on original Parlophone release as a set of 45's and a very rare copy of Elton John's 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' album on the Dick James Records label.

Woodstock 09-13-2005 02:59 PM

My dad has a very decent album collection, and he'll pass them down to me.

No, Ringo played it. Unless Ringo lied in the antholog book. My parents don't know what happened to their record collection. They don't ever listen to records and I found some and a record player, but my mom said that they had much more but didn't know what happened to them.

Woodstock 09-13-2005 03:33 PM

Yes, Ringo did play the drum solo on The End, but reluctantly, since the other three thought it would make the song better. The big drumming feud was during the recording of the White Album, specifically Back In The USSR.

Walrus Gumboot 09-13-2005 05:49 PM

The Japanese Foreign Exchange Student says that Ringo means apple in Japanese.

DeusExMachina 09-13-2005 05:54 PM

That is true.

/took Japanese for 5 years

It always amused me when talking about apples, for obvious reasons.

That's so **** awsome. I wish our school's language program wasn't so lame. I also with that I took Independent Study Japanese, Danish or Italian instead of IS Latin :upset:

I will die if I don't go to a good language college

DeusExMachina 09-13-2005 06:11 PM

My school has a pretty extensive language program. It's exciting. But, I don't really intend to continue studying Japanese in college. Unless I need to for credits, that is. I'd rather focus on music and the humanities. And math. Mmm math.

robo2448 09-13-2005 06:17 PM

I got Spanish, Latin, and French. All the foreign language teacher's at my school suck except one of the Latin teachers, who I have. She's awesome. But my Spanish teacher is a real bi[B][I][/I][/B]tch. She tried to give me detention for wearing a hat. Bi[B][I][/I][/B]tch.

I listened to Revolver and Help at school today. Help is so underrated. You've Got To Hide Your Love Away is so awesome.

Illmatic 09-13-2005 06:18 PM

I hate math...I just fuggin hate it :upset:

Anyone else think that "Lady Madonna" would make an great sample for a rap song?

That's too bad. I love math.

I never thought of that, but I could sort of see it working. The Lady Madonna thing, that is.

JonG 09-13-2005 07:19 PM

Didn't Sublime do "Lady Madonna", it kind of had a different twist on it. More hip-hop rockish feel.

robo2448 09-13-2005 07:22 PM

I like math. I was in the top advanced math class, but it was fu[B][I][/I][/B]cking impossible, so I dropped down to the honors level.

And this relates to The Beatles because... "1 and 1 and 1 is 3." Awesome math line in a Beatles song :cool:

WelcomeToTheMachine 09-13-2005 07:26 PM

im in the second lowest math class in my year, its so easy which is nice,but i hate the teacher.
