I am guaranteed to not make any new friends around here with this Anti-beatles rant. Perhaps I will ultimately end up like Bong. Banned.
Anyway, I am bored and my 'roids are bothering the hell out of me, so I am feeling cranky...
'roids flaming up like a nuclear test on an atoll,
(from the beatles, not the 'roids, that is)

Hahaha! 
Lucas, I may not share your hatred of the Beatles, but you did at least choose the appropriate forum on which to vent!!
I salute your right to hate that which I love (and upon reading your post, I will have to admit that Sargent Pepper is, um, pretty, uh, random...ish).

There's a saying in my family:
"Never trust someone who doesn't like the Beatles"
It's advice that has served us well.

A sad day indeed. Maybe your ass wouldn't hurt so much if you stopped talking out of it.

Uhm, these are two completely different forms of music. I don't think we can compare them and pick one over the other. It is really a matter of taste. However, there is always great music and just music. Beatles along with a few other bands changed the history of music.

Oh come on, John Lennon may have been a misogynist-junkie-possible murderer but Paul McCartney gave us "WINGS", some crimes should never be forgiven.

I never have gotten the Beatle mania.
They're OK, and they were fairly prolific and took some chances but... I don't know.
"Love Me Do" makes me want to chuck a spear through a nun.
I actually liked Badfinger much more than the Beatles.
Same sound, only in tune.
But there was that whole suicide thing.
Maybe..... there was murder afoot.
Lennon and Mcartney hate the fact that they got Badfinger started and now they're getting better than them.
So they kill.... I've said too much already.

Hmmm. How was your childhood? Just kidding.
Nothing at all wrong with the Beatles. Though, I do prefer early 'Stones to early Beatles and like the late Beatles far better than later 'Stones. And, yes, there is that silly Wings band. Poor Paul. Lennon married Yoko "Oh No!" —that's when I knew things were gonna go badly, but heck, the Beatles knew and discovered more and did more about and with music, than anyone. Ever. It was a sad day when they disbanded.
King Crimson influenced by the Beatles? I never knew and would never have guessed. I was a big K.C. fan—bought all their albums. I liked Bad Finger a lot too, but would never compare them to the Beatles. B.F. is way too "by the numbers" for that sort of comparison.
Hey, it's alright not to like the Beatles (I guess), but it's like someone else said: "Never trust anyone who doesn't like the Beatles." While I may not take it to that extreme, it does make me wonder.
So, why does Bid (ex-Monochrome Set) only offer his new band's (Scarlett's Well) music from some Spanish label's web site? Answer me that.
Just hav'in fun.

Vigor maybe you have a point. After all, Sure their last decent album was thirty years ago and they haven't even toured once since, but what have the Beatles done lately? Not a damn thing. Talk about resting on your laurels.
But seriously folks...
My first two albums as a kid were the Beatles 62-66 and 67-70 pressed on red and blue vinyl, which I still have.
I've liked different periods of their output throughout my life and suspect I always will although I'm never in a mood bad enough that I wouldn't enjoy hearing Rubber Soul and I'm facsinated with an enduring notion to re-sequence the White album to begin with Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey.
Definately the most production savey band of the first invasion rockers thanks mostly to George Martin, even their simplest efforts sound lightyears ahead of other bands from the same period like Who Kinks & Stones.
Oddly I listen to more Who Kinks & Stones that Beatles now. Perhaps it's because I can remember every note of those albums without actually playing them.
