The Beatles still as fresh 40 years on?

[matchless]

I think so, still brilliant as the day I first heard them back in the early 60's!

God they really were Fab!

Every now and again I stick the Beatles '1' album on and listen to it and some of the intros and riffs just take the piss out of some of the latest Brit pop bollox.

You can see where so many of them have got the influences from.

Yes, they still rock!

Yep - nothing comes close in my view!

Can anyone beatbox a Beatles tune?

Have to agree - Revolver, White Album, St Peppers sound like they could've been recorded last week. In fact, the same can be said of Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Kinks, Pink Floyd et al.

No, but I can stick a C in front of it.....

Elvis, the Beatles and most of their contempories put me off pop really. Didn't like what they recorded and still find it dire today. Didn't get back into Music until the late seventies. They paved the way for the music I liked but didn't actually do anything that I like!
