rushgoober Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Love 'em, like 'em, or God forbid dislike 'em, but there was no rock band who had a bigger influence on music and culture, and I doubt there ever will be. Name your top 10 songs! Mine could change, but it would roughly be: 1. Revolution #9 2. A Day in the Life 3. I Am The Walrus 4. Strawberry Fields Forever 5. Across the Universe 6. While My Guitar Gently Weeps 7. All You Need is Love 8. The Long and Winding Road 9. Tomorrow Never Knows 10. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds Damn, that was hard! #11 would probably be In My Life.

Silas Lang Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 It's a pretty much impossible task to select which 10 are my definitive favorites but I'll say my favorite era is '65-'67. Here's what I decided on for now: Strawberry Fields Forever Tomorrow Never Knows Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds We Can Work It Out Nowhere Man Rain Paperback Writer Eleanor Rigby Across The Universe Here Comes The Sun Honourable Mention: Drive My Car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KW84 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 The Beatles were the first band that I listened to when I was young. I have loved them ever since then. In no particular order: Hey Jude Revolution I Am The Walrus A Day In The Life Drive My Car Tomorrow Never Knows I'm Only Sleeping Rain I Want You (She's So Heavy) While My Guitar Gently Weeps That was harder than I thought!

Krautrock is an unfortunate term, but it's descriptive of a particular variety of 70's German music that's kind of a combination between psych and prog, but not quite either of those. Some of the more well-known groups of the genre: Can Amon Duul II Tangerine Dream Kraftwerk Faust Popol Vuh Ash Ra Tempel Cluster Neu! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
