I guess it's safe to say we're not going back to 1964 anytime soon. We're stuck with 2014, so we might as well try to make the most of it.

I actually thought his show at the Super Bowl was pretty entertaining. But I'm more the Jefferson Airplane kind of fan.

Any thoughts on the tribute show? What were your favorite performances?
I'd ask about least favorite, but I think it's a fairly unanimous tie between Katy Perry, and the Pharrel performances... My favs of the show were probably John Mayer/Keith Urban on Don't let me down, and Dave Grohl's Hey Bulldog... I considered Walsh and the others version of While my guitar gently weeps good, but not great. It's hard for anyone to pull that song off after seeing this performance of it.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SFNW5F8K9Y Here's a few other of Grohl's McCartney performances... Maybe I'm Amazed, with Norah Jones http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0hO4hBEvxY Band on the run http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYetH6DeMcY Last edited by novakjr; 02-10-2014 at 05:16 AM. |

I liked the show last night. I wasn't sure it would hold my interest but I stuck it out until the end. I especially liked Annie Lennox singing "Fool on the Hill" because I think that's an underrated Beatles' song. I'm a huge fan of the group's early material from 1963-64, and that was virtually absent save Ringo singing "Matchbox" and Paul's "I Saw Her Standing There", so that was a disappointment. But what I came away with was simply how many amazing songs they wrote. The show could have lasted ten hours and had a hundred numbers sung, and they never would have run out of classic material.

Well there always has to be a dissenter !!!
Morning,
I grew up in California in the 60's and 70's and to be honest never could and still don't much care for the Beatles..................Didn't like Dylan, or a lot of the mainstream stuff out in those days, although I was very very into music and probably went to 100-200 concerts between age 13/14-17. I didn't really understand the adulation for the Beatles, still don't. Music was very different for me in Cali, my first real full concert extravaganza was to see Alice in 72 or 73, now that was a concert. But I had been to concerts for several years prior, CCR, Kansas, Beach Boys, Jefferson Airplane, Dead (Before they were a Cult) In the early 70's I saw all of the following numerous times, some dozens (Like Airplane/Starship), I was at the 1975 tour debut of Starship with Papa John Creech and then saw them about 10-12 times, other staples were, BTO, Bad Company, UFO, Uriah Heep, Montrose (Another band I saw 20-30 times), The Tubes, Journey (Another one I saw at least 30-40 times), Iron Butterfly, Yes, Hawkwind, Moxy, Mott the Hoople, Cheap Trick, Thin Lizzy....ect. Basically I went from top 40 Bubble Gum direct to Rock N Roll, from The Archies in 1969 to Led Zepplin, who I saw at Keisar Pavillion in San Fran in 1971 with Lee Michaels as the opener! So no I'm not impressed with the Beatles, but of course there are some songs I think were OK, and I actually thought the Long and Winding Road album had some good music on it. Neil |
