I love love love love love love the layers of guitars on I Want You (She's So Heavy) and it sounds really great on the new mix. Really heavy.

I'm 44, but my almost-14 year old daughter LOVES them too. She knows pretty much the whole catalog. I took her to the McCartney concert at Busch a few years back, too.Joe Shlabotnik wrote:So, y'all under 35 - any of you give a damn about the Beatles?

I'm 38, so close, and I love the Beatles. I appreciate them more as I age.

Re: The Beatles
I learned earlier this week that Clapton played lead guitar on While My Guitar Gently Weeps, even though he wasn't formally credited. I'm some many of you knew that, but it was news to me.

Re: The Beatles
One of my proudest moments as a father (hyperbole) was when Mr. Blue Sky came on and my then 5 year old asked me if it was the Beatles. The most Beatlesy song ever.

41. Don't give a poop about the Beatles. I like some of their stuff but they are nowhere near the top of my list of favorites.

Harrison co-wrote Badge with Clapton, though he wasn't originally credited. He also played guitar and was credited under the name "L'Angelo Misterioso".Gashouse wrote:I learned earlier this week that Clapton played lead guitar on While My Guitar Gently Weeps, even though he wasn't formally credited.

Drunk Ringo walked in while they were working on the song and mumbled something about swans in the park which was incorporated into the songs lyrics.

I love that it only got the title because Clapton couldn't read Harrison's handwriting.Radbird wrote:Harrison co-wrote Badge with Clapton, though he wasn't originally credited.
