Since we already know how you feel about The Beatles this thread isn't for you, GP! ;)
This was on a few weeks ago, anyone watch it? I had it on DVR and watched it last night. WoW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you didn't see it and you're a fan, you REALLY need to check it out.

One of MANY great performances.

I did. It brought me to tears, but I'm such a sentimental sod.

There were some amazing performances on that show! I got a lil misty myself, Jim.
I learned a lot about the band that I didn't know too. :cool:

When I was a Child I listened to the Beatles. When I matured I moved on to more complex progressive rock and jazz and left the bubble gum music behind. I'm not saying they don't have a few good songs, but I do wonder how many are actually original and not stolen from the Black Man's Music.
I did watch a rerun of the show to have some music in the background, and was amazed that Katy Perry even knows who the Beatles are. She wasn't even showing cleavage which is the first time for her.
I have most of the top 1000 Classic Rock songs on my iPod. No beatles or Elton john on there though.

The best and most influential groups of the British Invasion:
1).The Beatles- undeniable talent
2).The Rolling Stones will go on forever
3).The Who- very influential- best live rock band in the 70's
4).The Kinks- Ray Davies is a genius song crafter.
5).Van Morrison-'nuff said.
I find it hard to believe 50 years have gone by... But this music is timeless.

Stolen from the Black Man's music? Say what? I think that you mean influenced by the Black Man's music don't you? ??? How many bands can say that? I'd say nearly all of them to some extent.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, no matter how wrong it may be.

Stolen?

(Some would argue Led Zep's ranking)
;D Followed in the 80's by:
6) Duran Duran
7) Pet Shop Boys

W O W, was there actually music made in the 80s? :yikes:

Not only did many of the British groups listen to black music which was widely played over there at the time, quite a few of their songs were covers of the songs originally done by black artists.
-
I saw no change in America.
It's amazing how much the media hypes something and people eatit up.
-
I think what they meant was that this was something entirely new and that bands like the Beach Boys and The Everly Brothers were marginalized that night when the rest of America was introduced to something they've never seen before. This was the face of music to come.

It sure put Elvis out of a job, along with all the other 50's guys like Bobby Darin and the ilk.

Without recognition or royalties.

Sadly correct two wheel. Wheel Pat Boone and others covered a black artists song and made millions for himself and the record companies, many times the same companies that released the original artists songs, the original artists got nothing.

These guys were all on the 2nd or 3rd wave, all worth mentioning along with David Bowie and Marc Bolan.

Actually, I have. I don't see anywhere in this thread where someone said that the Beatles are new. I did see where Boss said that back in the day they were new.

"stripped off the veneer of civilization"? (the veneer is VERY thin most times anyway)
