Re: What is it that keeps your interest in The Beatles alive?

I wouldn't want to upset a Creedence fan! Thgose cowboy boots hurt! :lol: The thing that's frustrating to me with so many bands is the poverty of ideas. They just don't have them. The Beatles did an amazing job of allowing bands to write their own material, but the simple fact of it is that most pe...

Re: What is it that keeps your interest in The Beatles alive?

I like two things the most: quality and progress. Be it audio, video, or books. Like, we were "there" back in whatever year, and we came to "here". The overall knowledge of the subject was on that level, and now it is at this level. I can relate to the waning interest at some poi...

Re: The Mamas & The Papas mono albums

Re: Book - British invasion recomendation wanted ....

There are quite a few. From the newer ones, I'd suggest books by Manfred Kuhlmann on Merseybeat - look for the latest versions. (I also remember a fantastic book with the title like "Rocklopedia", but somehow I am not able to find this title on my list of books. But I do have it. Will look...
