MetropolitanCowboy Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 One of the best music documentaries I’ve ever watched…maybe docs period. Well done by Peter Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetropolitanCowboy Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 They didn’t seem like a band on the verge of breaking up. Should have taken a longer break after the White Album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVGiant Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Just watched the first hour last night. So far it's been great, and from what I've been told it gets even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halfmanhalfbronco Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Does it cover how much shit they blatantly stole from black artists, without them getting a nickle outside of one lawsuit they lost because it was just soooooo blatant? I like the Beatles, for many reasons, but that is often glossed over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bornontheblue Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Beatles were terribly overrated. Paul McCartney was talented, but that is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their impact can not be overstated. In fact not only can not be overstated it's nearly impossible to put into words. Said impact is the only thing remarkable about them, though. You and I could have ripped off black music too, but not made any impact. I like the music, but yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George was, and lost. What did they steal? Are you thinking of the allegations against Led Zeppelin? Gotta get off the drugs, man…turning your brain to mush.

thelawlorfaithful Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 An hour and a half in and only Ringo is coming off well. I’m as shocked as anybody. John is practically useless and George is way whinier than I ever knew. Paul is a type A diva, but he’s also putting together monster hits by just messing around. We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch. How you gonna throw a shutout when all you do is bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look me in the eyes and say "Come Together" is not ripping off Chuck Berry...Lennon was sued in 73 for it. And while he may not have "lost" he agreed to financial compensation in the form of performing covers. Widely known and accepted they ripped off black artists, under the guise of being inspired. And I will not lay off my edibles, or occasional mushrooms, thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
