HERE IS BEATLES BAND

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I've noticed that the canon polls keep creeping back to their spiritual home of Fridays - it must be fate! Anyway today in a fit of indulgence we are doing the BEATLES, to celebrate the fact that something written by me about them is going to be in a proper book available in real actual shops later this year. You get TEN picks from the frankly motley range of Official Beatle Hits available.




[Poll #723001]

I am actually quite intrigued as to how this one will turn out!

You scamp. Apparently it had lots of other things on it too (http://www.jpgr.co.uk/smmt1.html) but I will assume that we would be voting for the title song...

Abbey Road is ALL FLAW!* That awful long bluesy one! The Smokin Mojo Filters! ect ect

*actually no, some of it is grebt, I like the one where Paul Mac WHINGES about the Beatles legal issues. In fact all of Side 2 is pretty hott.

side 2 = invention of prog!

and even the "awful" songs -- which i like anyway -- are not as bad as blue jay way!

invention of prog = line 1 on their interstellar charge sheet!
