You said it Jim.
I got the Beatles Complete a year or so back,
and I was amazed all all that I had forgotten.
They were a supurb bluesband, and also dabbled in jazz from several eras.
If you think of them based on a few pop tunes that still get airplay,
your only getting a small picture of their range.
And also note they still get airplay and many, many remakes decades later.
How many Oasis and Nirvanna songs will we be hearing in 2025?
Even of you don't consider their studio wizardry, or the fact they wrote some nearly perfectly constructed standards,
that easily cross between the rock, funk, jazz, and classical worlds,
they still were incredibly versatile. AND fun.
And John Lennon played steel too.
