it amazes me how many people disregard the beatles as bubblegum pop shitcrap as if the only songs they ever recorded were their pre 1965 stuff (which was still good, mind you)

like, do you even rubbersoul and later beatles dawg

also the beatles were pioneers in the recording studio, doing and discovering poo poo no one had done before, techniques used until this day and that was with only 4 and 8 track tape machines past the point that 16/24 tracks existed because britain didn't get that tech until much later than americans

lol at anyone who thinks that any member of the Beatles themselves actually had anything to do with the production of their albums. George Martin was the Beatles and will go down as one of the greatest producers in history.

Also lol at anyone that thinks there is anything clever or revolutionary about their songwriting. There the whole "Penny Lane" thing is just an easy trick that any freshmen music major already knows. Writing harmony isn't very hard. The human brain will try REALLY hard to make things sound good, and there is always a way to analyze a chord change to make it make sense.

The Beatles wrote a few cool songs, but so did about 10,000 other groups between now and then, at least most of those bands could actually play those songs live, unlike the Beatles who stopped even trying after 1965.

Sir George Martin was indeed a genius but in every single interview he talks about how him and the lads worked together and listened to the mixes to try to come up with cool poo poo to do, he didn't do it on his own.

People who don't get why the beatles were so influential and amazing usually either have very niche tastes (prog metal wankers and the such), understand very little about music and artistry or have never actually listened to the beatles without letting their preconceived notions sully the experience.

what in the gently caress are you talking about? you don't know poo poo of what you so confidently think you know about the beatles. george martin was not the sole catalyst of the beatles' creativity in the studio when it came to recording techniques. he was surely a factor and respectful and helpful in achieving the beatles' vision of their evolving sound, but saying the beatles themselves had nothing to do with it is completely loving false and you just sound more and more retarded the more you talk about the beatles. you act as if george martin had never worked with the beatles he would have explored the same poo poo in the studio without them as if the beatles weren't even a factor, which is just complete bullshit. so, just stop talking about the beatles and music in general until you have something remotely accurate to say

jesus christ i mean generally people who poo poo on the beatles are insufferable wanna be against the grain edgy care hard about poo poo they apparently abhor gently caress faces but you are taking it to the next level with the uniformly uninformed bullcrap you are spewing as if gospel, friend

edit: also Geoff Emerick was their actual, you know, audio engineer for the most part, let's not forget about him. george martin being the producer didn't have as much impact on the nuts and bolts engineering process as you seem to think he did

they did good stuff, they weren't the only band doing good stuff at the time

however they were this like loving insane marketing success so everyone knows about them and thinks they're great

additionally a lot of of their earlier stuff was kinda just rote pop music- not a bad thing but there ya are

seriously, george martin was an old and traditional dude already, and certainly by the evolving rock music world's standards, when he took on beatles. he was like their loving dad and a taskmaster that they had to literally hide their weed from. saying he was the cause of all the experimentation and lsd fueled music styles the beatles created in the studio is loving laughable.

for sure, in some ways, and he certainly warmed up to their poo poo over time but his role wasn't near what the dumb and stubbornly misinformed op is describing
