Beatles vs. Stones

@tylermunns thanks for mentioning Rod Temperton.

Agreed, the Beatles White Album is a fantastic collection of songs.

Hearing The Analogues relive it brought back many happy memories of hearing it for the first time in 1981.

Nowadays I’m even getting to like my least favourite track on there - Savoy Truffle.
 

The Stones vs The Beatles, Both are and were Fantastic. Being a guy who was a 10 year old when I f it rst heard the Beatles. I grew,up with  there,music.i know the Beatles,ended like 1970.But if you but all the music by each of the Beatles it like ,they never ended.

Just watching the 3 hour (?) documentary Get Back.  Going to take a few evenings to get through it.  Billy Preston just joined them in the studio.  For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, I highly recommend you spend some time with it.  Fascinating to watch in real time as some of the most iconic songs are created out of thin air.  McCartney just strumming the bass like a six sting as George & Ringo look on, waiting for Lennon to show up.  Paul is just mumbling to himself and suddenly you start to hear the slightest inkling there's something going on.  George stops yawning and picks up a guitar.  Ringo adds some rhythm with hands and feet.  And there it is out of nothing, the embryo of a classic.  It's takes a few days to put flesh on the bones but it's something to watch.  

@bigtwin I’m something of a film buff.  
I watch anything and everything from any time and anywhere in that medium.  
Obviously, a) Get Back is not a traditional documentary, it’s closer to an archaeological film product, b) documentaries can’t be compared to fiction films, and c) I’m a huge Beatles fan.  
All these things aside, I’m not sure any film has necessarily brought me as much joy and enthrallment as Get Back. I’m so grateful to Peter Jackson and his colleagues and Paul/Ringo/Yoko/Olivia for this film.  
One doesn’t need to like the Beatles or even music to be enthralled by the film.  
Peter Jackson had me with merely the intro. I’m sure we all would have our choices as to which pieces of footage made the final film (having seen the original Michael Lindsay-Hogg Let it Be, I know I missed a few bits Jackson left out - particularly when Paul & John share a mic for a run through of ‘Two of Us’ and go full-on silly in extremely funny fashion, or when the band is jamming w/Preston and start playing ‘Besame Mucho’ and Paul goes into ridiculously-silly over-the-top singing to hilarious effect) but I felt completely in trust of Jackson that he made a tremendous film based on what I saw.
