I'm also off to work in a minute so not much input from me during the day - so I'll leave you with this message -

and yes, The Beatles had a spell as hippies but I like to think it was just a phase they went through and grew out of. However in those suits in the early days they were also Mod, listen to Helter Skelter and they pre-empted Punk and with the pioneering studio techniques you could argue they led the way for a lot of dance music that follwed. Pink Floyd however based an entire career on smelly hippydom.

 

[MK Shrimper]

No competition. The Beatles defined pop music.

Listen to Tommorow Never Knows from Revolver.....samples, loops.... they were 25 years AHEAD of their time.

If not for The Beatles, Pink Floyd would be accountants and Estate Agents.

I voted for the Beatles because the Jam were conned out of a final place as the cheating poll-meister closed the poll at half seven this morning when it clearly said poll would close today at 1.50pm.
Could this be because the Stink Floyd had a very narrow lead. If it had been the other way round the poll would be open till the end.

Cheated from Westcliff :guns:

He's up to his old tricks again then I see!
The whole tournament could have been different if he'd shut the polls at their specified times!

Tough choice this for me as they are both great bands....But alas it has to be the Beatles for the reasons Mk pointed out.

 

[Uncle Leo]

This really ought to be a landslide. John, Paul, Ringo and George for me.

Oh and not forgetting Billy Preston on keyboards...

I'm with you all the way....;)

This would have made a great semi final !!!

The Beatles for me , at least they did have a brief period where they had passion, played to their audience and where the voice of a teenage nation.

As opposed to sitting round on bean bags deciding how pretentious they could be today whilst trying to make their tracks as long as possible so they didn't have to waste too much time and effort writing more.

 

[MK Shrimper]

The Beatles are going to walk this. It's like unwrapping a big box at christmas and finding you've been given an extremely large walnut that smells a bit...funny.

Dissapointment.

I blame Cricko. Or Immigrants. Or both.
