The song you suggested for me to listen to the the tournament thread, I'm Only Sleeping, I hate it. slow and boring, not what i look for in R&R. It screams 'HIPPIE!' to me. Thats what most of their stuff sounds like to me. If they wrote more songs like Helter Skelter, I'd dig em.

Not thrashy, but check out Yer Blues. Better yet, listen to the White Album. It has one of the widest gamuts of music in rock history. The White Album proves that saying all Beatles songs are alike is absurd. Revolution 9 and Savoy Truffle only cement it. If Savoy Truffle sounds like Octopus' Garden, then Dylan's Blowin' in the Wind sounds like his Blind Willie Mc Tell. As a hardline Dylan fan, I assure you it does not.

You should make a thread about that. ;) :D

I am going to say THE BEATLES without hesitation. The Rolling Stones are good, but whereas they stayed doing basically the same music, The Beatles ventured out and tried new and controversial music. Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club could have been the downfall of the Beatles and they were still willing to take that chance!! That makes them the best in my book. Plus, they spawned JOHN FUCKING LENNON for christs sake, what more can I say?!?!?!:D
