Never trust anyone who dislikes the Beatles

I've never said that I should be trusted. :goodboy:

and I don't think anyone has ever accused you of it, either. :p

Anyway I like several songs by the Beatles, I just don't like them when they sing them.

That's one of the best things about the Beatles, their songs are infinitely remakeable. They're a renewable resource more than they are a band at this point. Still Awesome imho though.

I've listened to some of those new cds. very nice remasters. I will buy a few select albums from this release. Never trust anyone who dislikes the Beatles (as a group, individuals are fair game)

Target has about as good a deal on these as you will see, I think.  The single-CD albums are marked down to $11.98 and you get a $5 gift card if you buy 2.  I bought Revolver and Abbey Road and immediately ripped them in WMA lossless.  Played them from my Zune over my receiver in 5-channel stereo & they sounded amazing :)

I think I might go back for The White Album and Past Masters. My brother is going to pick up some CDs; I hope he buys some I don't have :ph34r:

Beatles Rock Band is a pretty solid game as well.  You can tell they put a buttload of effort into it.

:rolleyes:

Well, I guess I sort of have a similar quirk: I don't like anything John Lennon did outside of the Beatles.

Garbon's more of a Herman's Hermits fan.

What platforms did they release it for?

Kids have GTWT for Wii, but frankly the song list for that game is appalingly bad.. esp. for kids, So I was curious to see if I could get some additional songs.

Xbox 360, PS3, & Wii.  Surprisingly, it seems like kids are playing this game; it's selling like crazy.

No, sir.  "Imagine" in particular grates on me, but that probably shouldn't surprise anyone ;)

I guess you can...  one is not necessarily dependent on the other, though :P
