Listening to the Beatles sequentially
Posted: Sat Feb 18, 2017 6:22 pm
'Bout a year ago, purchased box set, "The Beatles, The Original Studio Recordings, 217 Songs Eemastered."
All 13 original studio albums (British titles and layouts), and 2 CD collection of non-album singles, total 14 CD sleeves with booklets, 16 CDs.
'Made the time ('basically takes almost a week) to listen to the whole box, in chronological (except the last 2 disks) order. Really listening, not being interrupted, thinking along with the songs.
And am continually (re-)AMAZED at those four guys' abilities, songwriting, harmonies, imagination growth, experimentation, breadth, depth, travels, accomplishments...legacy.
Anybody else a Beatles fan who has done this?
Sorry about there being no Mosrite connection in this thread-starter.
For that matter, did The Beatles even know The Ventures existed?
