      Yoko Ono... discuss.

      The amount of misogyny and racism she was subjected to, blamed for the breakup of a band that had already reached its logical conclusion and was imploding on it own, I would like to say all that couldn't happen today but that hardly seems credible. She was an awesome artist in her own right, in the fluxus movement and others, history redeems her by the day.

          My first exposure to the beatles was actually cassettes that my mom found me at a garage sale when I was around 8 years old.

          The catch is the cassettes we're home made copies of copies with degraded sound quality.

          I fell in love with the music and for several years I only ever heard these low quality versions or on fuzzy am radio.

          It wasn't until several years later that someone gave me the beatles anthology and I heard what the music really sounded like.

          The best way to describe that feeling is similar to when Dorothy enters oz in the movie and everything changes to color

            without a doubt my favorite Lennon/McCartney song, the final track on Sgt. Pepper

              I think sgt peppers is one of my favourite albums maybe due to lovely Rita and for the benefit of mr kite, my parents had a friend called vic but growing up we always used mr / mrs / miss and their surname and his happened to be kite
              Also listening to the album on mono

                  Isn't that the band who covered Grey Matter's "I am the Walrus"?!

                    The Beatles are unavoidable. I have never tried to avoid them but I’ve never totally fallen for them either (sorry @endo).

                    On the other hand, the Peter Sellers versions have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Thanks @RobeOfTheMagi for the way in!

                      Beatles covers are a whole other (endless) and wonderful story.
                      Not always, but there are some truly incredible recordings out there.

                      Here are a few of my favorites.
