Best rock band ever.

I suspect all Yamerhaw has heard of them is I wanna hold your hand, love me do, and other gay shit they wrote before they got into heavy drugs. Which is what most people think of when they hear the name The Beatles. But thats the smallest part of the music they made, and far from the reason they were so great.

Like the pedophile (dont mistake with PDF file) MJ, they changed the face of the genre they chose. There has been no one bigger since.

Warm up with some "Hits" from 65', maybe toss a few Beach Boys in there, some Stones, Yardbirds, Johnny Rivers ect.. then pop on your headphones and listen to Rubber Soul (1965) and you will immediately figure it out. Pick any year going forward til they quit in 69' and the results will be the same. Although if you think they suck anyway, why waste the time?

if your kid graduates high school with a straight C average and all the other kids got F's that doesnt make him valedictorian

buddy holly influenced the shit out of the rock genre and he only had four years to do it
