Am I the only person who doesn't get The Beatles?
I really can't bare them.
I'm not saying Blur are better, but I do like more of their stuff.
It's just that you can't really compare them.
The Beatles, although I don't like them obviously changed the face of the music scene, where Blur obviously didn't.

Taste obviously plays a part, but what The Beatles did for music, technology, culture and the world in general can't be surpassed by any other band.

The Beatles

The early stuff is the best.

I'd vote for Ringo solo rather than Blur.

What The Beatles did with music and technology, people like Karlheinz Stockhausen had been doing since the 1950's. All The Beatles did was bring it to the masses. There would be no "Tomorrow Never Knows" and much of their later album material if it weren't for these composers like Stockhausen. (Stockhausen is one of the faces on the cover of the Sgt Pepper album).

They did make some truly fantastic music though and did change popular culture and did inspire future generations of musicians. But it has to be said (and I know I've said this before) they made some pathetic music as well.<br /><br />-- Tue Aug 28, 2012 7:50 pm --<br /><br />

While they were probably more consistent early on, I'd say my top 25 Beatles tracks are from Revolver onwards.

He posted in another thread that he didn't see any point in continuing with this battle of the bands as he/we all know Oasis will piss this competition.
Might as well lock the thread now.

Oasis wins.
