All You Need is Love-The Great XMTS Beatles Thread

[Panache]

I should answer my own thread I guess

(1) Favorite Beatles Album - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

This album was played a lot in our house when we were growing up.

(2) Favorite Beatles Song - "In my life" Just a lovely song

Runners Up: "Back in the USSR", "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", "Mr. Kite", "Penny Lane" , and "O bla Di o bla da"


(3) Favorite Beatle -Ringo

As a child there was always some funny self deprecating approachable quality to him that made him seem like someone you would like to meet. I really enjoy his "Sentimental Journey" album as well.


(4) Favorite Beatles Memory - Singing and dancing to "Mr Kite" as a young child. Singing Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da with my daughter as an adult

(5) Bonus Question! Favorite Beatles Cover - Siouxie and the Banshees "Dear Prudence"

And Robert, I'm not sure if the Beatles are my favorite band but it seems to me that in my memory they provided the soundtrack of my childhood.

Oh, that was understood ! Thanks all the same, Jamie.

After childhood things changed ! I got into John Mayal, Johnny Winter (my teenage Blues period)...

Then , Emerson Lake and Palmer, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Gentle Giant...

Then, Neil Young, James taylor...

... and finally Steeleye Span, Fairport Convention and Alan Stivell . (later on, I had the incredible opportunity to actually go on touring in Britain with Maddy Prior, Swarb and Alan)

"In my life", I loved them all.


Best,

Robert

As a group I think we Moderators prefer Paul McCartney's work with Wings.

Live and Let Die is our theme song after all ...

I voted early Beatles although I think you should have broken off the first option at Revolver as that was truly a revolutionary album (not one of my favourites though). I'm surprised that with my beatle albums that one cannot see light showing through the groove that I've played them so much. As for this "mod" that doesn't like the Beatles, well...
