Sorry but not sorry. I dont get the Beatles allure.

I'll say it...I dont care for their music. I also say any real musician who said they were 'inspired' by them is full of schit. Maybe today's boy bands but those should be it. Yellow submarine...wtf is that? Ok I'm goin to eat a fish fry. Fkn Beatles...too bad they didnt get hit by a bus crossing that street

They covered a bunch of different genres and pioneered what bands could do with song structure, music studio technology, genre mashups, and so forth.

They took a bunch of drugs and started throwing in sitars, then they had the producer George Martin telling them to add classical orchestras and honky tonk piano solos, and it wound up being really inspired, interesting music. The way they dipped and weaved out of music genres after their "boy band" phase after they went deep on some fukkin' clean drugs was when they changed music.

They aren't the only band to have this profound of an impact, but they are one of the earliest that went from corporate to renegade. Even if you don't like their music you gotta respect their abilities to write songs. It was more than just them, it was the whole situation...their producer, the studios they worked in, the time it happened, etc. Other bands were doing stuff just as inspired, at the time.

They are dated but still have a few good songs. Not good enough that I’d listen to them.

And they are from Liverpool...

It's one thing to dislike their music. That's preference and that's fine. But to deny the impact they made to the music industry and the influence they had on other musicians especially during that time and the following decade is just complete ignorance and lack of education on your part. Sgt. Pepper's alone change the music industry and influenced bands more than any other album in history by a long shot.

I'm pretty anti-Sgt. Pepper's, but I definitely understand the influence in general and the appeal of particular songs.

Golden Slumbers might be my favorite, even though it's so short.

Jethro Tull made genius prog rock. Definitely not for everyone. You just sound like a retard yelling about something you don't personally enjoy, as if that makes them lose their impact. I think Zeppelin sucks ass, horribly incompetent musicians live, just sloppily drunk and doped out, stole a large chunk of their music. But I don't deny their impact on music or how they basically started glam rock. Because I'm not a retard like you.

Lol, based. 90% of what I listen to is prog, but I've never been able to get into Tull even though I think they're super talented (Heavy Horses is pretty awesome though). I've been burnt out on Zeppelin since middle school. Pains me to try to sit through just about any of their music. I can listen to Tea for One, Rain Song, and Since I've Been Loving You once a year tops, and that's it. Plant is a great vocalist but he's just a complete copycat of Steve Marriott. But like you said, their influence is undeniable.

The Beatles and Jethro Tull are objectively talented, objectively masterclass composers, and objectively iconic bands. I don't think everyone should be required to worship or enjoy them, but the way you describe their music is way more over-the-top than me calling you retarded for the retarded opinions you're sharing. What do you listen to?

They have lots of terrible songs but some pretty good ones. Golden Slumbers (from post above is a good example).

If you want to let everyone know you are low IQ and have limited tastes for music and art, this is the way to do it and ruin any semblence of anyone thinking you are one of us smarter folks.

Not sure why the beatles get all the credit for pioneering the shape of music for future generations to come, when floyd were only about 5 years late to the party in comparison to the beatles, whilst arguably being way more influential to the music scene in every way shape and form

Maybe this is just an ill-informed ignorant millennials take idk
