The Best Band of All Times...The Beatles?
There is nothing like the magic the Beatles created in their time. Maybe Led Zeppelin or the Rolling Stones came close...but not at their level. Beethoven and Mozart would be proud of those 4 dudes, especially Lennon and McCarney. Anyone disagree with me, I am all ears.

RE: The Best Band of All Times...The Beatles?
I'm really not a big fan of The Beatles, and have only heard a few songs.

Got nothing against them, but what I don't understand is how they went from Twist and Shout to Yellow Submarine. I mean, the total change on their music to drug suggesting themes is just really weird for me. Can't really say more since I don't know much about the band.

RE: The Best Band of All Times...The Beatles?
I am more a fan of their writing than their sound. In part you can judge the impact of a group by how many artists cover their songs. "Let It Be" is my favorite, and I also like "The Long and Winding Road," "Come Together," and "Yesterday." I've also traveled to Abbey Road Studios in London and signed the wall to show respect...HA HA!

I like the Rolling Stones a lot more! I never really got into them and I've tried to a few times.

While I greatly admire and respect the Beatles, I think the term "best" is extremely subjective.

That said, my all-time favorite band is Cream, and my all-time favorite song is Cream's rendition of the Robert Johnson classic "Crossroads"

Dude seriously?! Haha, you've probably heard way more than you'd ever know. They were extremely dynamic, and songs would sound completely different.

I agree that "BEST" is subjective. I used to hate on the Beatles just because I liked Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and the Rolling Stones better for rock bands.

Some of the stuff they're popular for is Bieber type shit (though better produced and they wrote it) ala "I want to hold your hand". But dude, listen to Abbey Road, all the way through. Pop open a beer. Its about as good as an album gets. There is no doubting they were incredible song writers and melody makers.

Stairway to Heaven is my favorite Beatles song. Johnny Van Zant's voice put the Beatles at the top of any band out of the U.S.

Fuck yeah.

I like the Beatles, but I am sick and tired of getting them rammed down my throat on the radio...every fuckin' day.

Favorite bands all time Led Zeppelin and Oasis.

Sgt. Pepper is their best, a masterpiece in my books.

Beatles are the best.
The Stones are the best.
Baby Boomers are the best.
Heard it all before.

John Lennon ate Yoko Ono's rancid pussy. Omega.
Paul McCartney raised another man's kid. Then he married a one-legged gold digger. After she took him for $100 million+, the idiot married another amputee who had both of her tits hacked off years ago. Dude might have a fetish for seriously broken women, but that's one of hell of a beta fetish. He's also an "ethical vegetarian."=Omega.

What has Linda McCartney getting cancer and having a mastectomy have to do with the Beatles being a great band?

Lennon banged a fugly - shit better chuck out Sgt.Pepper
Bowie was bi sexual - dirty omega I'll never listen to Low or Heroes again
Dylan protested against Vietnam war - fucking coward I'm throwing out Blonde on Blonde
Keith Richards was to weak to kick his heroin habit - beta junkie,I ain't listening to Exile on main street
Bob Marley got cancer - fucking weakling,an alpha would never get cancer,better throw out Natty Dread



If you are saying that you only listen to music written by alpha dudes then you are going to miss out on a whole load of great work.

I saw McCartney in concert about a year ago at Great American Ballpark, where the Cincinnati Reds play. One of McCartney's conditions to play here was that the ballpark couldn't sell any meat products - no brats, no hot dogs, no hamburgers at the ballpark.

Had I known that before purchasing my ticket, I probably wouldn't have went.

RE: The Best Band of All Times...The Beatles?
I think if you frame the question in terms of how prolific a group was, and/or their cultural or music industry impact, there's a very strong argument for the Beatles being the best ever. I say that as someone who wasn't really into their sound. Their appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show, and their "invasion" of America with their Shea Stadium performance may never be matched by any group again in terms of significance and legend. In the end, the Stones were probably more prolific as performers, especially since they're still performing and recording. Their overall impact on the culture and industry wasn't as strong as the Beatles though. A large reason for that is that they were somewhat controversial (some of their lyrics weren't radio-friendly) and they definitely embraced sex and drugs in what was a very different America at that time. I'm still more of a fan of the Stones or even Led Zeppelin in terms of listening enjoyment.

RE: The Best Band of All Times...The Beatles?
Saying a band is the best is both subjective and provable¨:
1 Which band has sold the most records of all time: Beatles
2 Which band has had their songs covered the most: Beatles
3.Which bands albums always appear on any music critic or magazines top 10: Beatles
4. In a vote by musicians (done by VHI) years ago who came out as the best musicians of the 20th century: Beatles
5 In Time magazines 100 most influential people of the 20th century which was the only band to make the list: Beatles
6. When Ive taken a dump in the bathroom of an Egyptian restaurant or gone to a shitty bar in Mexico, which foreign artist was I more likely to hear: the Beatles
7. Who were the most innovative and creative musicians of the 20 century (i.e first to make music videos, add oriental instruments, etc) Beatles
8. Only artists to have 5 songs in the top 10 at the same time: Beatles.
Cmon guys how much more evidence do you need. Now if you prefer another band or group, I understand we all have different tastes. But objectively speaking there is no denying they were the best, most popular and most well respected by their peers.
As to how beta Lennon and Mcartney became, in that I am in total agreement. Something about having all the women in the world wanting to fuck you and having slayed thousands of pussies, must have fucked with their heads. I think there are no men in history who had access to more young top pussy than they did. In Genghis Khans time, they didnt have airplanes and he had to rape most of the babes he plundered. So he might come in as a far 2nd. There should be some psychological study done on them, because as young bad ass rockers they were completely alpha.

If the devil made me a deal, where i could have any woman I wanted for 10 years and then I would have to settle for only Yoko Ono afterwards, I would take it in an instant. Those would be some of the most epic memorable 10 years in the history of man haha. In the end, Lennon was a lucky guy......very few people can claim to have the experiences he went through.

Never cared for the Beetles or Bob Markey. People look at me like I'm crazy when I say that. Until I ask them which their favorite album was, and they give me a look of confusion and respond with........greatest hits?
