What you mean is … What you mean is you don’t want to spend your weekend re convincing your self that what you say isn’t pc bullshit;
2 that you actually have an opinion worth giving
3 that you can convince those that know the diff, that you aren’t just an idiot with his head up his ass. thank god the Beatles and Stones among others gave this cantankerous sad old a lasting career !
You better rethink … You better rethink that statement before I unleash a whole shit-storm of the truth on you. Just rethink it, because i don’t wanna have to spend my weekend on the computer proving you wrong with endless facts that rock n roll music has a lot of life and feeling.
steveconn are you a … steveconn are you a naturally gifted idiot? you have very low musical standards this is obvious . Lennon not only wrote songs jagger/richard could only wish for, he also played as good no better ,rhythm guitar and bass than poor old burned keef !
George just played … George just played the slide with a lame syrupy tone that screamed for an insulin injection; Keith practically invented the rock riff that created some of the most indelible songs in rock history (Satisfaction, Brown Sugar, Gimme Shelter, Jumpin Jack Flash); now you’ll say I gave no examples. right? lol. And I’ve heard the Bealtes pre-’64 performances on Anthology and the R &B covers during the Let It Be sessions; just Lennon braying monotonously to mediocre backing. Four decades of hype helps.
and as for keith – … and as for keith – some of what he did over the years was OK. but so what, he knows a chuck berry lick or 2? his playing is just plain uninteresting, any guitar player will tell you the same. players before your time like kim simmonds, peter green, dave davies, rory gallagher, dave clempson, the list goes on, all had something original to offer – they didn’t just ape one player’s licks. which is why george’s playing was so exceptional – it had character (which you seem to know nothing about).
haha – that’s the … haha – that’s the best argument you can make, son? swearing & making ‘proclamations’ backed up by 0 facts? lol – very convincing indeed! let me teach you something – as lennon said “if you did not see the beatles before ‘64 – you did not see the beatles’. on youtube you see brief promos – broadcasts to sell/promote records, etc. a genuine, soulful beatles R&B performance – you cannot know anything about. so – your comments prove nothing except your lack of knowledge about rock & roll music.
You know nothing … You know nothing about music. Keith is the MAIN protegee of Chuck’s style and plays it best (the Stones version of Carol in ‘64 or the movie Hail Hail Rock N’Roll for two examples); and you are a idiot to say ‘did I see the Beatles, no of course you didn’t’ when THEIR CLIP IS PLAYING RIGHT ABOVE US. DUH!!! So you’re saying every Beatles clip on Youtube must be a fake, right?? lol And who cares if they took hours or months, they’re castrated goody-goody for the suburbs either way.
i think of this way … i think of this way, chuck was going for a more soulful treatment – the beatles were going for that “blow the roof off the club” sound. equally brilliant, for different reasons.
haha – keith is ( … haha – keith is (next to ron wood) about the worst guitarist to ever be recorded (mick taylor playing chuck berry, now that is quite good). did you see the beatles? no, of course you didn’t – they broke up long before you were born. all *you* know is what you see on youtube. the beatles recorded their 1st few albums in *hours*, was not until their mid-late period that real time was put into overdubs (an era you praise in another post). if you are going to flame bait, get your facts straight.
Any band can sound … Any band can sound great beneath endless overdubs and studio production. Live they sound like Alvin and The Chipmunks playing Chuck Berry. Sounds groovy to the white people, but listen to Keith Richards on their cover of Carol for some real Berry mastery.
Their music evolved … Their music evolved…like 99% of every artist thats ever been in a studio. You cant compare the Beatles in 1963 to what they became by ‘68
steveconn is right. … steveconn is right. The Beatles, at the start were nothing more than 4 lads trying their best to cover songs that were done by real American Rockers (Chuck Berry, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Carl Perkins, Larry Williams, Little Richard etc ) Their original songs were geared to a new generation of teenyboppers.
Actually alot of … Actually alot of their history is – the cute pop songs, choirboy outfits, the sterile harmonies (really, listen to a song like Please Please Me or Love Me Do and then an Alvin and the Chipmunks album; separated at birth), the smiles for the whole family. The Beatles got more interesting and gritty from ‘67 on, but they built their early rep. on wholesome, whitebread entertainment with the black influence to their music VERY diluted.
how can you call a … how can you call a 4 piece rock group cover (which Chuck liked, anyway) of rollover beethoven chipmunk and white bread? nothing about the beatles history is whitebread.
I am really happy … I am really happy for both Beatles and Chuck Berry. I remember Chuck told us some years ago, “Yesterday” is his favorite song ever. And I think there is no better recording than “Rock’n'Roll Music” with the Beatles. Let’s rock!
