1. Definitely one of their very best. But I personally pick Strawberry Fields Forever (followed by Penny Lane).
  2. You know, I'm not a streaming guy, but seeing all this positive fervor over the band being available to stream is wonderful.

    Especially when you see a statistic that says that they were streamed 50 million times in the first 48 hours and that 65% of the Beatles’ online listeners were under the age of 34.

    Says a lot, doesn't it?
  3. I'm extremely happy they're streaming. Had a lot of their music before, but couldn't justify the price of the complete Beatles box, even though I really wanted it. Now streaming has pretty much all I need.
  4. George Martin, their greatest collaborator, has passed away at 90.

    I knew it was going to happen at some point, but it's still very sad.
  5. simply the man who changed the sound of music
  6. So, it is April 6th. It is on this day, 50 years ago, that they would begin work on what would become their 7th album. The first song they worked on: "Tomorrow Never Knows"

    The greatest "only 1 chord" song ever composed
  8. Yes... And some still don't realize how IMMENSE was their influence.
  9. The Beatles are great I'd forgotten how much I love Revolution, Hey Jude, their cover of Twist and Shout, and Love Me Do until youtube began autoplaying some of their music a few weeks ago.
