i think the humour in their music (specially John) owes a big nod to George Formby and The Goons.

Speaking of humour George once said that he thought that Monty Python took over the spirit of the Beatles and I think that is very true.

Paul said they recorded at night because they knew Sinatra recorded at night and did his best work then. Made good music then too.

With pc you can never tell if it's a typo or his own twisted sense of humour. ;)

There is not doubt that the artists who influenced the Beatles are talented but the Beatles made it into something more. The Beatles are that and something more. I don't really listen to much from that era other than the Beatles because with the Beatles, I have it all combined. ;)

I never really cared too much for Elvis either, must I add.
