I know I got turned on...

Did any of you (who saw the concert for george) notice that they had two drummers and Ringo's set wasn't wired up with microphones like the other guy's? Just saying...

Has somebody mentioned Helter Skelter yet?

and of course, Hello Goodbye.

yeah i saw that, and one guy was going syco with the tambourine

It is really interesting to hear how everyone here got into the Beatles. I personally got into the Beatles kind of backwards. The first beatles album I ever bought was the second edition of the Anthology. It was the third album I ever bought (I think I was maybe 14 at the time), I am embarrased to admit to what the first two were. Anyway, I had never even heard a Beatles song before in my life, in fact I had never heard what I would now consider to be a "good song." I remember putting it on the first time and being completely blown away. The beauty of strawberry fields, the raw energy of I'm down. It was all there. I have never turned back. Now, I own all of their albums, and almost all of them on vinyl But for I still get that magical "first listen" feeling that everyone talks about when I listen to the second Anthology. It brings back so many memory's that it might be my favorite to listen to.

Anyway, there isn't much you can go wrong with when it comes to the Beatles. The only thing I would suggest avoiding is the original Version of Yellow Submarine. The beatles songs on it are great, but i never got much our of George Martin's instrumental stuff. Get the song track instead, it has all the beatles songs from the original album, plus some other real gems, and all of them remastered. If only they would remaster their entire catalog, that is a project that is way overdue. Oh well, that is a different story all together.

well im 18 and i remember the first time i heard the beatles at age 8 with my dads collection my firts beatles song i heard was day tripper and so on i began to listen to all there music i actually remember when paul,george and ringo got together for the anthology and it was great hearing real love and free as a bird.
my favorite album is sgt pepper but for the early beatles records i recomend with the beatles its a nice album!!!

its so incredible the beatles still keep rocking our word after 30 years of their breakup

in 2000 the 1 album was amaizing it got so high in the tops it srrpassed the artist of today liked britney,nsyc and all that crap amyazing isnt

I heard odd Bealtes tracks now and again when i was younger but never really hooked me, i was only about 8 at the time though, then when i was about 9 i heard Abbey road, and thought it was incredible, i then heard sgt.peppers and Revolver and was amazed at how good they were. Then after i heard the White Album, i never looked back, i think it is the greatest album ever, i can never get sick of it, the amount of times i must have listened to that album must be incredible!
