lol well was the only music for kids at the time unlike now, there is so much more about but will say keep that shit drum and bass and dance music away from me .........

[urgeok2]

when i was a kid - i wasnt a big fan of the beatles - i was too close to what i was listening. i didnt actually grow up with the beatles - that was fgor people my parents age.

it wasnt until much later i recognized how importand - solid - influential - and enduring they were/are.


i dont sit around listening to them - i rarely do unless the mood hits.

I felt the same way about the stones ...but the thing about them is that they kept going - releasing albums during my time which i thought were ok but not great. (emotional rescue ? come on, its a crap song from a crap stones era)

if the stones had disbanded in 1971 there would be a slightly stronger comparrison - but as good as their best songs are - i just dont think they've had anywhere near the same impact - and whatever impact they did have is becoming diminished - watered down by their ailing dragged out career.

i have about 5 - 10 stones songs that i think are really great...


but there has to be about 50 - 60 beatles songs that are timeless

I think the fifties are actually an underrated decade. Godzilla, giant insects, Elvis, Naked Lunch, rigid, kinky ladies' undergarments. Bettie Page. The forties were just a time of fast talking reporters and lascivious cartoon wolves.
