mjmooney Posted May 22, 2014 Author VT Supporter Share Posted May 22, 2014 I listened to sgt peppers lonely hearts club band the other day, for the first time in ages. Now I'm not a huge beatles fan although I do like them and have some albums, but what an album. I don't even think its slightly overrated, such a fun album to listen to. It's a work of genius, but it's still my least favourite Beatles album. Of the solo stuff, All Things Must Pass is the best by a country mile.

Of the solo stuff, All Things Must Pass is the best by a country mile. must admit I'm not a Sgt Pepper fan , though Day in a the life is arguably the Beatles finest song ..... but it's no revolver ( but then even that has yellow submarine on it dragging it down a notch ) Plastic Ono Band > all things must pass .. Working class hero , isolation ,God and so on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Look, it's not as good as the original, obviously. And the Spector production is undeniably plodding. But Lennon's voice is perfectly suited to that song. And the slide guitar (Harrison?) is a nice touch. I like it, so sod the lot of you. not on that Rock n roll session the released recording came from , therer is a version from the let it Be sessions with George on it though , probably in Bootleg version so it may depend which version you hear ... there is also a bootleg recording of it somewhere with Lennon, McCartney , Stevie Wonder, Jesse Ed Davis, Bobby Keys and Harry Nilsson. I agree with you though , I think it's a great cover , its got that raw Lennon power to it Have you heard the bootlegged "Imagine" (album) outtakes? Some good stuff there, especially the alt. versions of "How Do You Sleep". I've heard the original "imagine" song / single before Spector ruined it and it sounded infinitely better but not the rest of the album ... I'll have to go hunting on the web for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I used to buy a lot of bootlegs, aint bought any for a while. Some can be very pricey. I've always found ebay to be the best bet, unless anyone knows any good places to get them from. Money has been tight for the past 12 month, but I'm doing alright now so I think I'll start adding to my collection soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always wondered why people call me lapel.. When people read it outloud they say lapel, it's weird. It's pronounced Lap-Al like the AL in Alan. Maybe even Lap-Ul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyh29 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 if you stuck 100 couples all speaking different languages on a spacecraft to escape the impending meteor about to hit earth , and they arrived at Alpha Centauri and started a new colony what language do you think would be adopted as the common one in the long term ? or would a new language form over the course of time a sorta pick and mix of them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted May 23, 2014 Author VT Supporter Share Posted May 23, 2014 I think it would be a creole, with bits from a few of the ones that are easiest to learn - probably English and Spanish dominating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
