Title: When Did The Beatles Look Their Best?
Post by: I_Will on January 03, 2010, 11:59:53 PM

I saw this on another Beatles forum and I am just curious to what the users here think. This can be judged on coolness, attractiveness, personal preference, etc. Here are pictures for reference!

Early Days:

Hmm..I'm hesitating between 1964 and 1965. But I choose 1964.

This is a hard one! I really liked them in '63 '64 & '65! So young and cute then.
But I still think '64 is my favorite year of them!  ;D

I don't know whether to say 1965 or 1966 - in the end, I voted '66.

As of now 1964 is winning, I'm going to assume that those are all female votes, because that's when I'd say The Beatles looked the most attractive as a group.

Leather pants = EWWW! ha2ha All the time for me!! They're just so cool, it wouldn't matter if one of them dyed their hair pink, they'd still look amazing.

AGREED!

Leather jackets are alright! But the leather pants is a little extreme :P I mean black jeans would be fine, boys!

I actually prefer George and Paul in the late sixties - but I had to choose '64 because that's the only year, in my opinion, that all four looked good. 'Cause... I'm not a fan of Ringo's 'stache, and although John looks decent in Let It Be... the Abbey Road look just... ruins everything. x) And I do have to pick on George's Abbey Road look, as well, because it's all just so very... Amish. :P

And the hats don't help anyone's case.

I'm the only one who voted for Early Days.   :-\
I personally love this era of The Beatles almost more than any other point in their career, even though they'd barely achieved anything considering what they did in the 60's.  I think they were a lot more free as a band.  They could do pretty much anything they wanted, were down to earth and shook the place with their awesome Rock and Roll covers.  And I think they all looked awesome too, in their leather and sexy, messy haircuts and all that.  Though they all looked awesome pretty much all the time, I especially swoon over John in the earliest days.  :)

Difficult but i like the Abbey Road look at the moment , like all the pictures i've seen from this period , even though John looks a 120 year old  ha2ha
I like the late 60's fashion it's kind of Bohemian , which as always been a good look for British Rock Stars  :)

I say 1964, with '65 and '66 in second and third place.

On the black and white photo from 1968. I have a framed poster of that photo in my music room.
