Don’t forget all the people that did neat things with equipment like Les Paul.

Yeah, Sunn, they definitely contributed their fair share to the music world…… Maybe you don’t have to be a Beatles fan, but, if you are into music in any way, you should at least give a nod to what they accomplished……

I can’t think of a genre the Beatles didn’t cover (Rap & Hip Hop weren’t invented quite yet).
They did pop, rock, country, blues, a cappella, psychedelic, big band, jazz, acoustic, electric, raga & I’m probably forgetting a few. Wait a minute, I don’t think they ever did opera (although that my be disputed). I think Sgt. Pepper could have been a “Rock Opera” if there had been such a term before the Who’s “Tommy”.

I agree with you on this one, J.J., I just can’t picture Elvis as a full blown Trucker…… I see him on a two to three minute “Top 40″ local delivery run….. Uh-huh-uhh….. “Elvis has left the building on a delivery”……. Everyone has their own musical taste, but, I agree with you, The Beatles definitely have some “Rock-Out, Neck wretching” music…..

Yes, I have allways taken offense to the labeling of Elvis as a “Truck Driver”. He drove a delivery Pick up for an local electrical contracting company. As for the Beatles being “Rock out Music” I dare anyone to put on Revolution, or Helter Skelter turn up the volume to oh lets say 8 and set perfectly still without “Rocking Out”

Wouldn’t it now be 66 years ago that Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play?

I would be willing to bet, that in our children’s lifetime, they will see full nudity by musical “performers”. After that, I’m not sure what else they could do. But I’m sure it will be something.

Can’t leave out Bill Haley and the Comets, can we, Sunn?….. Seems like there was one other kid – a truck driver (J.J. ?..No) out of Memphis, TN that gained somewhat of a fan base…… Let’s see, it was a funny first name….. Started with an E…. or a P….. That’s it!…. The news media called him “Elvis the Pelvis”….. Banned from the waist down on TV!….. Imagine that happening today…..
