I debated about whether or not to post something about The Beatles. I never went through a Beatles Phase where I was mad about them. For the longest time, my only Beatles CD was Sgt Pepper. I can’t quite define my relationship with The Beatles. I think that they made some really good music but it is a very rare occasion when I actively listen to any of it.
Somewhere around 2004, I acquired a large number of Beatles albums. I listened to them but they remain dormant. It is a strange thing. When I listen to them, I remark to myself how amazing it is that they were able to not only produce so many great songs but in so many different styles. Listen to I Want To Hold Your Hand then jump to Norwegian Wood or Let It Be. Are these the same guys?
They really are incredible both collectively as well as individually. That makes think of something. I listen to the Beatles more after they broke up. I like George Harrison stuff, I love Paul McCartney, John Lennon is good and I have Caveman on VHS.
I just looked, I have 15 Beatles albums including a few Greatest Hits arrangements and they are incredible musical, achievements. so why don’t I listen to them more?
