I see all the euro guys over here prefer the Beat-less.

"Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't."

"Laissez faire et laissez passer, le monde va de lui même!"

I'm not a huge fan of either but between the two I much prefer the Beatles.

Beatles, even the experimentation. They led the pack, others tried to make music like they did.

I'm trying to build my Dylan collection up. After 30 some years of hating his stuff, I've suddenly started liking it.

OMG, Sulla has retired to his estates to engage in orgies and Dylan parties!

I guess you have to be a miserable old bastard to appreciate it. Luckily I achieved that status some 30 years ago  :yeah:

I like to play Love Sick really, really loud. Then follow it up with either House Carpenter or All along the watchtower.

Beatles over stones, but have to agree Sam and Otis and Stax over them all.

If you ever end up in Memphis, the Stax Museum is definitely worth checking out.  I spent about 5 hours there.  They've even got Isaac Hayes's powder blue Eldorado Cadillac perpetually rotating on display!
sadly my last visit to Memphis was too brief, was on road trip with tricky dick and along with am scip stopped for ribs and met his parents.

The Kinks!  :bowler:
Good choice.

I've moved all over the place on this but I have to go for the Beatles in the end.  I'd take their music to a desert island but I'd rather see the Stones live, at their peak.
Let's bomb Russia!

The Brain

They have been flatlining for 40 years. At least Beatles knew when to pull the plug.

write in vote for Bob Dylan Seger.

Edited to display real musical talent. Dylan writes okay, but for some reason, he thinks that he can sing, and that sets him back more than a few points. :contract:
