I won't red you but I do beg to differ. I was listening to Revolver just the other day asking what it was that the Beatles had that made them so successful.

There are a lot of answers to this but one thing for sure is that they were well tight. Didn't need to be the greatest musicians individualy because when they got together they ' just had it '. An example is this fine track.

over rated bunch of twats, gomez are much better

Don't know Gomez, pardon my ignorance, but I will look them up. (When I try to watch it it keeps coming ip "restricted" - I'll give it a look on youtube as I am always into some different sort of music......what about a bit of Nick Cave, or Leonard Cohen, The Animals....there were loads of bands better than the Beatles. Harrison on his own wrote some songs way better than Lennon ever could!

The Doors were streets ahead of the Beatles, and like I say, as far as I am concerned only Harrison and Lennon had any talent. Mc Cartney is /was a complete shit!

gomez are miles ahead of the doors

Here is one for you, this is amazing...

Finish (or Finnish)

Take a look you couldn't get more original than this, and the blonde is a "STAR"

I will go and dig them out....what ERA were they from? I seriously never heard of them before.

OK- I just found Gomez! They have done a few tracks for some recent movies - I have heard them before, YES they are quite good! (I like that Whippin Picadilly)

Maybe you will like these? (or not)

The Swans.

they have been around a while
some tracks are just sublime
the rest of their stuff just applies itself

I think these are the same guys that did a movie a few years back where they just broke into shops and malls and started drumming on everything, it was really something different, I can't recall the name but I will do a bit of digging as it is one hell of an original movie!

^ i make you right, well i never, a kindred spirit

I was more into bands like the Stranglers, Iggy Pop, Neil Young, The Doors, Zeppelin, Sabbath, Rainbow, Roger Whittaker, Slade, The Jam, sisters of Mercy, Public Image, The Pistols The Pogues ( Ifucking hated The Clash - a bunch of cunts apart from the "English Civil War" (I used to get beaten up in Newcastle on Saturdays by Teddy Boys and the Sham Army as I fitted into neither cliche - I liked punk, I like R'n'R, classical a bit of everything I suppose. Everyone seemed to want to put you in a pigeonhole as to your musical tastes.

quite like me, i just picked up the good stuff

George Martin, the producer, was the reason.

This is quite an interesting site here at TD, I suspect about 75% of the posters are Brits and Aussies (Our Ginger Haired Stepchildren fathered by Criminals).

But it is interesting if you log on (when you are not being banned) to sites like Thai Visa and many other sites that involve expats, you really don't get the laugh and banter that you get here.

Americans lack a sense of humour, Ities and Frogs never post as they cannot or will not learn English.

Germans are too busy fucking ladyboys, Poles and their ilk cannot afford the internet.

Russians have no sense of humour, cannot afford the internet, are drunk and no one wants to talk to them anyway - besides they are too busy scamming.

I think it must only be the odd Aussie, Brit, Scot, Irish that enjoys a few beers and likes a bit of a chat.

Wasn't it George Martin that liked it up the Chutney Closet?
