[@BuffaloC305]

I'm impressed that they went thru 'generations' of music... their early albums, then their HardDays-Help generation, then Rubber Soul-Revolver-SgtP-Magical generation, then their later stuff - White to the end. And fans have great fun debating each 'generation of music' - where does one end, where does one end? Their early stuff can date back to their earliest songwriting and performance years, but even then - 1960? That's about it (although they included covers from the late '50s).

The band recorded something in just about every musical genre there was at the time, and invented a few of their own. Pop. Rockabilly. Country. Rock. Music hall. Jazz. Symphonic. Psychedelic. New Age. So either the person hates all of those genres or they haven't really heard the Beatles. Enjoy the ride, Chod!

Here's something to consider: Before they stopped touring, they were on the road performing about 250 days each year. During that time, they released 2 albums per year and 4 singles per year. The singles never appeared on one of their albums. Every album had 13 songs on it. Astonishing output that's never been matched.

It is a good idea to start with the early songs and move on forward when checking out a band, because the music tend to change over time. Listening to The Beatles, the point is they changed the concept of popular music in some 7 years. When they started music sounded like early Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly. When they left the stage, bands like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Queen and ELO stepped into the light.

[@Pjaypt]

Well put! Yes, to fully appreciate their talent a chronological order is the best way to go.

They always spoke out on social issues whether through song or voice. They were scheduled the play a concert in Jacksonville, Florida in 1964 and when they found out that the audience would be segregated, they refused to play. The audience was ultimately desegregated!

The Beatles were all about love and bringing people of all backgrounds together. And, they came along when America needed them the most. JFK had been killed a couple of months earlier, before they became known here in the States, and the country was still in mourning. America needed something to take our collective minds off our heartbreak and along came four mop-tops with funny accents and catchy songs who made us laugh and feel better. It helped that the world had never heard anything like them and Beatlemania was born. With well over a billion records and albums sold, with 28 top ten hits and 20 number one hits, and being known as the greatest band ever, I guess they did all right for themselves. But, yeah, their catalog is massive. 😁 (P.S. my favorite band is still Yes, but my love for The Beatles is deeper and has lasted longer, but just barely)

Interesting perspective to wonder if you'll get to a point at which you say, "This sounds like a Beatles song." For those of us who were there when the Beatles were new, I would say we never had the experience to wonder. We grew and evolved with them and their new sounds. We can only look at their variety of musical stylings today and know it's them. So, I would say that asking what a Beatles song sounds like is like asking what food tastes like.

[@lynnehatton1239]

'She's Leaving Home' ...a true story, 'Your Mother Should Know', 'Fixing a Whole', 'Fool on the Hill', 'Eleanor Rigby' with string instruments and such a classic. The Beatles wrote and produced over 200 songs, very rare these days. Such an amazing band who were never afraid to experiment with different instruments and different genres, whilst you still knew it was them. Being unique was what they were all about. So many timeless classics that never sound dated.

From the day I heard this when it came out its still one of the most electrifying tracks ever recorded.

[@douglasgonzalez7561]

The Beatles are a band that had an almost unbelievable evolutionary development from album to albums. They consistently pushed the envelope with different styles, genres, moods, and feels. They were utterly fearless in exploring new paths and ideas, and they were amazingly good with everything they attempted. I can’t think of any other band that has exhibited their level of variety. Simply put, they completely revolutionized music.

[@ingridfong-daley5899]

@5:20 The Beatles' first few albums actually have a remarkable homogeneity. You can hear their 'dance hall band/the-music-of-our-parents/Radio days' influences, leaning towards that early straight-pop image/style. 65-66 is where they begin to experiment (pun intended) and thus discover their own 'mature' voices/aesthetics. And once they stopped touring, and their entire experience of music-making was in the studio, they realised they had access to more than their own voices and fingertips: there was a world of orchestral, electronic, and 'world' music that they could also embrace/incorporate. There's a lot of usage of this term 'cultural appropriation', but the Beatles led us to the Beastie Boys who led us to Beck--and they are all masters who learned to incorporate what they learned from the world into their own music. But the more you listen to their early catalogue, you'll know the Beatles immediately when you hear them. :)

There's an interview with Greg Lake of ELP on here that talks about his time playing with Ringo and his All Star Band. He said he spoke to Ringo about his time in the band and how prolific John & Paul were then, (George to an extent too but look who he was in the shadow of). Ringo said, I'm paraphrasing, "All I used to do was come to the studio every day and for months on end every single day one or the other would have a new song and they were all hits." And I'll add that none of them sounded the same, (as you're now discovering)! Enjoy your musical journey with this band. The well is wide and deep!

The Beatles definitely did a lot of musical exploration in their short time together. For example, their early song from late-1962, "Love Me Do", could be classified by some listeners as a Country music song. Some listeners classify their 1968 song, "Helter Skelter" as a Heavy Metal song. The same goes for their song, "Birthday", which came out that same year.

[@jimlocke8281]

You ought to look into the Beatles, their experience and their philosophies.... fascinating. They played for years, 6 or 8 hours a night with no breaks. They recorded their first album in one day -- they were that ready, that experienced, and that good.

[@rodgantt3497]

You have nailed the foundation of The Beatles greatness. They were only a famous and functioning band for about six years, and in those six years they produced more music, more great music, than any other band ever. Their music was always good if not great. We all grew with the Beatles, they led the way, they did not follow trends, they created them. Almost all good music to come during and after the 1960’s took some bit of lesson from this band.

[@mikecaetano]

While the styles of their songs definitely varied, The Beatles do indeed sound like The Beatles. When will the ride stop? How deep is the rabbit hole? Wikipedia tells me that their "main catalogue", which spans the years 1962 to 1970, includes 213 songs: 188 originals and 25 covers. During that time they released 12 studio albums, 13 extended plays, and 22 singles. They covered other artists in their early years before fully finding their own voice. A few of the songs they covered include "Twist and Shout"(The Isley Brothers), "Roll Over Beethoven" (Chuck Berry), "Long Tall Sally" (Little Richard), "You Really Got a Hold on Me" (Smokey Robinson), "Please Mr. Postman" (The Marvelettes), and "Money (That's What I Want)" (Barrett Strong).

[@hungfao]

From the beginning, they had a sort of implied rule to not repeat themselves. Of course, in their early career they were under the thumb of the record execs who would expect them to produce hit after hit, "Do another one like the one you just did only different". For example, they put the harmonica sound on a number of early songs but really buried it after 'A Hard Day's Night' album. To them, it was cliche. Naturally, the music business is all about making money. Everyone felt that the Beatles were just a fad and would dry up with each album they produced. Then, they didn't dry up. They made lots of cash. By the time they got to 'Rubber Soul', they were being given more freedom in the studio. They kept their engineers busy interpreting what sound the band wanted so they could put it in the song. Their primary producer was Sir George Martin. He was simply a stroke of luck for the band and supremely brilliant. No one in the band was formally trained in music. They could not read or write it. But Martin could and also had the patience to hear them out. He is also quoted as saying that it seemed like as they went along the Beatles simply got better and better. Their evolution is remarkable, the stuff of legends. Ultimately, they became so revered that they would essentially take over the studio whenever they felt like it and used that space to bring in their ideas to create a finished product. At the time, nearly no one got away with that. It is still not a common practice. It costs a lot of money to have engineers sitting around while the musicians sit around doing rehearsal after rehearsal. By the time they got to 'Sgt Pepper...', they virtually took over a studio for 9 months (and Ringo learned to play chess).

[@dsomerville5293]

Here's an idea of the inventory. Back in high school one weekend from Friday evening from 7 pm to 7 pm Sunday rock FM station in Ottawa ON CHEZ 106 played ONLY Beatles. NO REPEAT SONGS! It was amazing. We didn't realize how deep their songwriting was. Masters.

The Fab Four also had the fifth-bestselling vinyl album of the year, selling 54,000 copies of their 1969 opus Abbey Road. They had good company in the vinyl category, including fellow classic rock icons Queen and Pink Floyd, pop supernova Billie Eilish and retro-rock heartthrob Harry Styles. The Beatles also perform exceptionally well on streaming services, with many songs racking up hundreds of millions of plays." -Forbes

[@ofrabjousday1]

This 45 could not have come out at a more needed time in human history. 1968 was as divisive as 2016 was. Just like today, the rift was between generations, between political viewpoints, between love and hatred and most of all, between two revolutions. The first was to win that God-forsaken war, and the other was to stop that God-forsaken war. "Hey Jude" was about bringing people together. All sides. "Take a sad song and make it better," although written to Julian Lennon, was also written to all of us. And of course, that long, beautiful, building coda was a sing-along that had us all chanting, everytime the radio played it around the world. John's "Revolution" on the flipside was an advocacy as well as a call to us all to change the world by means other than destruction. For me, this 45 has always been the perfectly-timed message to a world that was crying. For both sides of the issues, and both sides of the 45.

Try Baby's In Black, From Me To You, Because, Two Of Us, Eleanor Rigby, Fixing A Hole, Mother Nature's Son, Long Long Long, Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite, Dear Prudence, And I Love Her, and Eight Days A Week for starters!

I love this comment by John in Rolling Stone magazine in 1980 about his song 'Revolution' - 'I wanted to put out what I felt about revolution. I thought it was time we fucking spoke about it, the same as I thought it was about time we stopped not answering about the Vietnamese war when we were on tour with Brian Epstein and had to tell him, ‘We’re going to talk about the war this time, and we’re not going to just waffle.’ I wanted to say what I thought about revolution.' RIP John Lennon

there's now FOUR "official" vesions of this song. there's the single, heard here, then revolution 1 off the white album, then the video version which contained elements from the other two versions. and, now, the version off the "love" album. i swear, if i show the beatles any more LOVE i'll GO BROKE!

Now try to wrap you head around the fact that their entire “inventory “ of music and influence all took place in a seven year span…all that in seven years…mind blowing
