paul/john are kinda like gilmour/waters in pink floyd, similar dynamic. one is a bitter, poignant, cynical wordsmith with that special elusive edge, the other a tender good lookin' boy from the suburbs with a special talent for melody and pastoral musicianship. it's a relationship doomed to fail but when the two ends are able meet it's a very good combination. |
That's beautiful.

yeah Taxman solo is Paul but I meant more just in terms of a total understanding of the instrument, ability to craft songs on it I guess. His technical musicianship is way above the other Beatles. I always thought he switched to bass because he was the only one good enough to simply hop from guitar and bass.
In terms of who has better style, like who literally sounds cooler to me, I guess George is the obvious pick. The chord changes in Here Comes to Sun are delightful. As in if you play the song yourself, you will actually just feel delight in how creative and melodious and uplifting the switches are. |
To whoever mentioned Yoko records (Elph?) : I've actively listened to more of her work than any Beatles or solo Beatles records.
She's great. Great conceptual artist too. |
I mentioned Plastic Ono Band but the debut is a Lennon album with Yoko and then a Yoko album with Lennon
I do like some Yoko stuff but I'm not well versed or anything |
I only know a couple of her albums. "Feeling the Space" is quite good. As is Fly and Approximate Infinte Universe. Those are the 3 I know best.

Paul is totally the dreamiest
|
Yeah he's hella cute.
I love Rain. What a song. Forgot about Past Masters. Good shit. Don't let me down is there too. |
With all of Paul's strengths that Poots mentions, he could easily drift away into aimless whimsy and disposal schlock when left to his own devices. He needed someone like John to keep him grounded.
The same goes for John though, who needed a Paul too as basically a shit-detector. |
I mean are any of you really all about Wings
|
Never checked them out. Should I? Always thought live and let die was kinda lame, at least in parts.
am i the only one in love with early beatles? I like all their albums but beatles for sale has some super mellifluous shit. words of love comes to mind. |
I fucken love hard day's nite even the instrumentals
I know I'm not supposed to, but I do Only problem is I learned it from a badly pressed copy spun a cent or three too slow on an ancient sears turntable, so when I hear any of it on the radio it gives me panic b/c too fast too crystalline |
idk with Lennon there are top charters with forever mainstream relevance (Imagine)
but then there's also Plastic Ono stuff that's got real meat to it idk what McCartney has, Band on the Run? |
