Favorite Beatle?

[ApocalypseKurtz]

Rest in peace, John and George

 

[G-Man]

Paul wrote the best songs in my opinion (sgt pepper), continued to make music all the time even after the band broke up and donated a lot of money for charity. He's got my vote!

The Stag Beatle,

One of the largest Beatles in the insect kingdom!

The best Beatle (or at least the only truly talented one) was George Martin.:ripper:

 

[G-Man]

Why?

Who?
George R Martin, the fantasy writer?

I don't know if George Martin had a specific job with the beatles.. He was the manager of a small record company that dicovered them. He wrote musical parts for them. He even helped Lennon with 'I'm the Walrus' as well as other songs that had classical music in them, etc.
He was in Israel about a year ago and there was a very big show of Israeli artists doing the beatles songs with him as the... well how do you call in english the guy that moves his hands to tell the orchastre how to play?

Volkswagen Beatle (although I think it is spelt 'Beetle'...Oh well)

But seroisly I dont know as I was only born in good ol' '87...

Ringo -- he was the most down-to-earth of all of the Beatles.

 

[Simon Darkshade]

John. The results so far prove me to be in the majority.
A great talent and a special person.

I voted John as I think he was the most brilliant, but the Beatles are a clear example of the whole being much greater than the sum of its parts.

Sums up my view!

Yesterday was Paul's work. He says he "dreamed" the song.

I voted for George, if only for his musical talent, and I like his solo work better than any other Beatle's...

The quiet Beatle did alot of work after the band, but most people don't know it too well... Traveling Wilburys, anyone?

I like Ringo too, if only for his down to earth style, and his loopy songs:

"Oh no, no, no, I don't smoke it no more, I'm tired of wakin' up on the floor."

Ringo's all star band albums were great...
