No worries. Easy mistake to make. You won't be the first or the last. Nothing wrong with being keen. Thers a hell of a lot of banter/threads to get through on these forums. The same topic does tend to crop up from time to time.
;)

If you want to shift it over App, go ahead. Won't hurt my feelings.

mclen, if you want, I believe there is already a thread devoted to 'who's the 5th Beatle' or 'Best 5th Beatle.' perhaps you should make your opinion known on that thread and resurrect it for a bit.

I'm afraid I don't have the skills or power to do that. You might have to do a copy n' paste job. I'm not sure where Al (The End) is at the mo. He would be the man to speak to. Theres no major harm done anyway. ;)

There is plenty of great old threads to dig through. A lot of new members at the moment so as LennonLemon says...It would be good to resurrect a few maybe?

Any Burt Jansch in your dad's Ragtime collection btw?

I don't think so. My mom has the bulk of it. He mostly collected Jellyroll Morton, Scott Joplin among others. He also went after WWI songs and Gershwin, Cole Porter, Al Jolson and show tunes. I also got myself some of his Les Paul sheets. I didn't get everything though.
What sort of collectibles do you have? Don't tell me, the Butcher cover right?

George Martin for the music. Neil Aspinall for everything else.

I wish!!! lol

I'm not much of a collector like some guys around here. I've learnt many new depths of collectables since joining the forum and checking out ebay. I had no idea.

I have biographies, books, few souvenirs, watch, phone, calenders, song books, Anthologies CD&DVD. Plenty of CD's, not much vinyl and the PC disk with every album on. I think that sums me up. lol

Then theres the instruments but that's another day. lol
I would love to collect their ribbon microphones and their ancient vox equipment. Need to bring in a bit more cash for that kind of commitment. Now you got me dreamin of Rickenbackers, fender twins, Ludwig etc......h a zy  d ream....lol

I'd be tempted to put Billy Preston in as a fifth Beatle contender-at least for the Let it Be sessions--contributing key part to some of their most famous songs: "Get Back," "Let it Be," etc.  

Geoff Emerick probably deserves 6th Beatles status (one step behind George Martin).

George Martin has got to be the fifth Beatle.

Close behind and those who deserve a lot of recognition are Neil, Mal, Geoff and Derek Taylor.

Yeah! I never saw this coming! ;D I wonder who voted No 5th Beatle. I'd like to hear his reasoning.

Pete Best deserves to be on the list though.

During their interviews at the Beatle Convention in Liverpool this year, both Mark Lewisohn and Tony Barrow cited Neil Aspinall as the fith Beatle.

But, in my opinion you can only truly be classed as a fith Beatle if you were actually IN the band when there were five members - so that would be either Pete Best or more likey Stuart Sutcliffe. But that's just MY opinion! :)
