I'd vote for Radiohead, but somehow I can't vote... Radiohead's my favorite band that's still around intact. Something about OK Computer and Kid A just hooked me, The Bends is probably one of the best all-around albums of all time... I mean, they hit #1 with Kid A without releasing either a single to the radio or a video to MTV and/or MuchMusic, VH1... That says a lot

it has to be radiohead, they arent alternative, electronic or anything, they just do music. it's as simple as that.

And Nirvana...i forgot alot of things thats why i put the option of other..
Abour marilyn manson and KoRn they became ugly..but they wern't merchandised all the time..KoRn has done it's influence on music (Nu-metal)..and marilyn manson just has to genius albums if you look into them espically Antichrist-Superstar with all that Nietzschein philosophies...

Essential Beatles, post Dylan era (Bob Dylan turned the Beatles on to pot in the mid sixties, in between Beatles For Sale and Rubber Soul): Rubber Soul, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, The White Album (kinda pricey, though, since it's a double album), and Abbey Road. I'd say Revolver, but I haven't heard that one yet... I've been meaning to get it for almost 5 years...

my personnal faves are sgt. pepper and the white album. i listen to the white album at least twice every day. disc one. its like my fucking bible.
my advice: buy a cd, not a greatest hits, and listen to it and then REALLY listen to it, and you'll hear something different every time. late beatles.

QUESTION TO YOU BEATLES-FREAKS......
who was the creative mind of the beatles? who wrote all the s.h.i.t.?...or at least a majority of it?

Post by Kurtz on Aug 28, 2002 3:25:23 GMT -5
i know now i will start a vast argument about Paul Mchartny and John Lennon....but i don't care...
All the meaningful shit was written by lennon..all the Yestrday Pop crap was written by paul...i hate paul so fucking much he was always trying to preserve the beatles myth by pulling off another crappy album that aint worth your money...
Best Albums:
Abbey road
Anthology Disc 2 vol 2 ,Disc 3 vol 1 and vol 2
White album (can't live without)
Magical Mystery Tour
Sgt' pepper
Revolver
Rubber Soul
Yellow Submarine
and their are some collections with diffrent versions of songs that are worth to buy...
but i'm warning all the albums have good song and crappy songs..
and if you reallly want to get into the Beatles Read:
Lennon Remembers
and The Anthology

john and paul wrote a most of it. george added in a rare, beautiful song every once in a while. john was kind of the rebel in the band, so he wrote about edgier things a lot of the time (why dont we do it in the road?) and got deep every once in a while. paul contributed the most to songwriting, george martin (producer) wrote all the orchestra parts, which are pretty damn good. everything george wrote lyrics to, he did the music to. ringo wrote the yellow submarine lyrics and sang it. but they all wrote and sang and they're the most talented band in the world.
and nothing they did was "crappy".

The Beatles are awesome, I got into their stuff my Junior year in High School, bought all the albums from Sgt. Pepper to Abbey Road, and Rubber Soul on tape, and a friend gave me With The Beatles. My favorite is John Lennon... I was born 26 days before he was shot, Double Fantasy was the number one album the day I was born. He was a genius, I wish that he could have made videos for MTV in the early 80's, he would've taken the video thing to a level back then that no one could possibly reach today. One day, I'll visit Strawberry Fields in Central Park. George was awesome, too, I was really sad when he died, he should have recorded more albums in the 90's. I like George's solo work too, especially "Crackerbox Palace" and "Blow Away". I own Lennon Legend, Band on the Run, Best of Dark Horse (George) and Vertical Man (Ringo), I like John and George's work best, Paul's a bit too sugary. Ringo's good, straight up rock, I have to be in the mood for it, though. This is what happens when I get started talking about the Beatles, I write a book. Speaking of books, a great one is The Beatles, written by Hunter Davies. It was the only official biography endorsed by the Beatles, written during the 60's while interviewing the band over 3 years. Really a good read, but bittersweet 'cause you know what happens to John.

Ringo Starr also wrote in an octopus' garden, which is a great song, but i find Ringo's drumming pretty ordinary for the huge band that they were.

well ringo does easy stuff, but he was like a pioneer in the drumming world. he did shit that nobody had ever done back then. plus he was a really awesome live drummer, kept time really well. i can compare him to the ac/dc drummer in that neither of them do difficult stuff, but they both are sophisticated, experienced drummers.

i love anything live, especially blues. if i love a band, and then i hear them play live and they suck, i dont love em anymore. but if they play well live, then i love them even more. the doors were great live. so yeah, i like it better.
i saw something that happened like last year...it was the doors, minus jim of course, with the creed lead singer singing. I FUCKING HATE THAT GUY!! he claimed to sound just like jim in some interview or behind the music or something. but i really failed to see the resemblence in their voices.

I like the Doors, especially the first album, The End and Light My Fire are two of my faves... I really like Roadhouse Blues too, and The Ghost Song is a trip. I like the movie, too. I still sometimes mix up Val Kilmer and call him Jim. That's the only movie I can stand Meg Ryan in, except for parts of "Courage Under Fire".
