The Beatles Appreciation Thread

[( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)]

That's one of the first songs I learned to play on guitar (Smoke on the Water was the first). Then I discovered I'm more of a bass person.

I love the bass. Upright or standard?

Standard. I was very close to getting a violin bass like Paul, too.

I used to dabble in percussion so the bass was always a friend. (even though I never played it)

I've played tuba my whole life, so bass was a logical progression for me.

Enough of the pre-hippy Beatles would be enough to turn anyone off from their music, period. I enjoy their stuff from Help up.

Not so now. I'm loving all of it. Everything they put out is great.

Next question.. Which is better? Dear Prudunce or Hey Jude

HOW did I ever miss this thread?

Well, as per an earlier post I made, THIS is my current top 10:

1. Dear Prudence
2. Nowhere Man
3. Strawberry Fields
4. I'm Only Sleeping
5. Norwegian Wood
6. Back In The U.S.S.R
7. Doctor Robert
8. Rain
9. Yer Blues*
10. While My Guitar Gently Weeps

The * is to denote that although The White Album version of Yer Blues is decent, I much prefer John's version with The Dirty Mac group. That was just something special.
