[QUOTE=Up The Irons] [I]All Things Must Pass[/I] is truly a masterpiece of its time[/QUOTE]



My favourite post-beatles album by far.

I've heard various stories of george writing songs for the beatles and having John and Paul turn him down, giving him very little standing in the beatles from a general fan Point of View. Infact, a couple of the songs on All Things Must Pass were originally written for the beatles, but they were a few of the songs that got turned down.

Up The Irons 09-01-2006 08:12 PM

Yeah I've heard that too that must be why it's so damn long! :lol:

BludgeonySteve 09-01-2006 08:27 PM

10 years of:

George: Hey guys, I wrote a song, wanna hear i...

John and Paul: No! All of your stuff sucks and the occasional time we do use one of your songs, it's never as good as ours.

Yep. No wonder.

CHEERS.

When I got Sgt. Peppers lonely hearts club band like a
week or so ago, I've listened to it almost every morning
while I get ready

El_Goodo 09-02-2006 12:44 PM

My friend just found this awesome obscure record store. It has lot's of CD's that would normally never be in big music places like HMV and such. Yesterday I got Bob Dylan's 3-Disc Biograph set for 20 dollars. And they had some cool Beatles stuff they had mini-disc singles of I want to hold your hand, and love me do, and also some early recordings of the band, and a crazy japanese cd that said The Beatles Gold.

man, I dunno.

Sgt. Peppers is probably one of my least favorite beatles albums. maybe I just overplayed it when I first got it or something, but I'd much rather listen to almost any other late-beatles albums.

Up The Irons 09-02-2006 07:32 PM

mmt


ftw

zabbit82 09-02-2006 08:22 PM

I've always prefered MMT over Sgt. Peppers. I dunno why but I've never been able to listen all the way thru it.

Seafroggys 09-02-2006 09:10 PM

MMT is better then Peppa. However, it wasn't a full album of all new material. There was only like 6-7 new songs on it, then there were 4 singles from earlier in the year (SFF/Penny Lane, Love/Rich Man).

But in retrospect, it is the superior album, since none of their material is 'new' anymore, you can't use that argument.

rockinbass17 09-02-2006 10:14 PM

MMT>SPLHCB. On Pepper's there are only four really solid tracks. MMT is golden throughout. Even "Flying" is really cool. And the best tracks off of MMT are better than the best off of Sgt. Pepper's.

I Am The Walrus and Strawberry Fields > A Day In The Life and Sgt. Pepper's.

Seafroggys 09-02-2006 10:17 PM

i must say A Day in the Life is really strong, one of their best overall tracks. I Am the Walrus is cool but slightly overrated (slighty, I say, it still kicks ***), and Strawberry Fields Forever is probably the best off of both albums.

rockinbass17 09-02-2006 10:24 PM

I never said that it wasn't a strong track. I also really enjoy it, and it just comes closely behind the two tracks from MMT that I mentioned. It is probably my third favorite Beatles song, behind those two.

magicbus 09-03-2006 04:49 PM

For any fans of Dr. Mario, do you guys think the game music sounds like Lady Madonna. That's the first think I thought of when I heard the song.

El_Goodo 09-05-2006 12:53 PM

Haha...that does sound very similar.

I agree. It might not be anything spectacular, but it's really cool and I always enjoy listening to it.

Seafroggys 09-06-2006 01:09 AM

Flying is such a grooving song. Its definitally something a band can jam on. I can see if The Beatles were touring and stuff, they can go off on that song for like 5 minutes.

revolution1 09-07-2006 01:59 AM

Re-doing Revolution was totally wrong
The new version is good, but the orginal of The White Album is so much better

El_Goodo 09-07-2006 05:48 PM

Speaking of grooving songs...the version of Helter-Skelter off the 3rd Anthology is mind-blowing. I just heard it yesterday...it's so slow, bluesy, and really groovy they should have released both versions. It was the the white album!

The Clash 09-07-2006 09:33 PM

Theres a faster version of "Two of Us" that I really like alot. Its in the Let It Be movie. John and Paul share a mic and its really a good groovin tune, Just another Beatle song that no matter what version they released, it was def a great song

Leper 09-07-2006 10:34 PM

I'd have to say between Pepper and MMT, A Day in the Life is, IMO, the strongest track on either album. However MMT is superior overall.

Jacaranda 09-07-2006 10:42 PM

Except for the fact that it feels more like a compilation disc rather then an actual album. You are underestimating the flow factor man.

Leper 09-07-2006 10:48 PM

Meh, Pepper really doesn't flow that well, not for a c:rolleyes:ncept album anyway. I'll admit it does flow a little better than MMT but not enough for me to consider it a better album.

El_Goodo 09-08-2006 12:50 AM

Yeah I always found it funny how only 4 songs actually follow the concept, and flow together.

[B]Please[/B], I think you're [I]over[/I]estimating the flow factor. It's about the indivudual songs not the flow.

The Clash 09-24-2006 01:25 PM

Paul McCartney is releasing a DVD of his most recent US Tour. It is being screened on A&E in October, just like the Live in Red Square Concert DVD.

Seafroggys 09-24-2006 01:58 PM

it took him long enough to release that tour. His 2002 tour (Back in the US) I saw him in October, saw the TV special around Thanksgiving, and got the DVD that Christmas. Its been almost a year since I've seen his 2005 tour, and still nothing?
