I got into the Beatles around the age of 11, when I listened to their Yellow Submarine. I thought Yellow Submarine, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds were absolutely bizarre songs, yet was unaware at the time that those songs were writing around the time when they openly into drugs. Now I'd say my favorite Beatles record is Revolver (I fucking love that opening guitar riff on "She Said. She Said").
To Azrael- I think you are way off in thinking that Mark David Chapman's murdering John is a benefit to you. The fact that he died so tragically and so suddenly would actually make him a martyr of sorts. I'm sure that he was seen as a head-figure of the counter-culture and a champion agains't the Vietnam War before his death, but by him dying like this, people will remember him more than ever and his solo music and the music of the Beatles will become more important because of that. Anyways, do us all a favor and leave this forum along with all these other moronic and unfunny new people.
I am not implying in any way that the Beatles and Lennon weren't influencial or that it was a good thing that he was murdered.
