I like some of the Beatles songs ( "Eleanor Rigby" might be my favourite) but so much music since then has been derivative of their kind of sound (certainly in the UK in the nineties when I was starting to listen to music) that it's hard to appreciate how innovative it apparently was back in the sixties. Also, with so many of the baby boomers getting incredibly smug about how music reached its artistic peak back when they were teenagers that people with a contrarian streak (of which I am occasionally guilty) might not be able to help themselves from pouring scorn on The Beatles just because they can't bear to be told how to feel about a band.

Do like I did and spend a week or so listening to music in chronological order from the dawn of man. By the time The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix start doing their crazy poo poo, you'll be begging for it. These songs are only 3 years apart. It's like everyone suddenly lost their collective minds at one time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czw8eqepir8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHNbHn3i9S4

Pierre Schaeffer was already doing all the interesting and influential poo poo that the beatles were too timid and unadventurous to even try, 20+ years before the beatles even formed https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Schaeffer take the yellow submarine dildo out of your mouth and learn some actual music history and you might find that most of the actually seriously influential musicians in history (such as Big Mama Thornton) do all the actual innovating and creating of new genres, only to be copied by other bands that then go on to make all the top 10 hits you know (like elvis or the beatles or led zeppelin)

I just don't like listening to their music and it literally goes no deeper than that and I don't care about music enough to analyze it beyond that I don't see Beatles fandom dying with the boomers tho, I know more than a few milennials who adore them for whatever reason

I'm a bad goon when it comes to media though because I also loathe David Lynch and as a result I will never watch Twin Peaks because I've reached my limit of his stuff that people assure me is amazing but actually it's incoherent trash

Most of his movies are pretentious wannabe Euro trash while Ghost Dog is cheesy pretentious wannabe Eurotrash.

The Beatles were okay, but they weren't as good as Mao's landlord classicide.

His musique concrète style of composition inspired the music professor who approached Bob Moog to build his first synthesizer*. The man literally invented/inspired sampling and synthesizers, which if you haven’t noticed, isa lot more popular these days than rock ‘n’ roll. Musique concrète was also the forerunner of early industrial music, which eventually went on to have huge influences in modern musical styles such as trap, chopped & screwed, and witch house music. Meanwhile Gibson guitars is facing bankruptcy because nobody buys guitars anymore because rock is dead. But you don’t need a top ten hit or to be a household name to revolutionize art. * quote:Moog's first customized modular systems were built during 1965 and demonstrated at a summer workshop at Moog's Trumansburg, New York, factory in August 1965, culminating with an afternoon concert of electronic music and musique concrète on August 28.

A lot of famous bands back then had songs about fuckin underaged girls It seems to be a common theme Wonder if any of it has to do w/ Epstein and Weinstein
