Umm how am I a fool? I just didn't include anything before 1963. We're all entitled to our own opinion, I have no problem that you think that their Cavern days were the coolest, you could have simply replied with "Cavern days and of course the general early days...hell they were always cool! You should have incliuded it" But you had to be a prick and call me a fool. If you're gonna reply to a thread, keep your insult crap off of it....

1967. I like the music, and their attitudes... I just like that whole period in the sixties.

I hate to be a too blind faithful, if that's even a phrase, but I think at every level they were the coolest. Badasses in Hamburg, having to downshift into Moptops but setting the bar and on and on--it was like a hurricane that just picks up speed. Even when they were at their 'worst', no one could touch them.

The late 60's is my favorite era of the band, when they were the coolest, with their longer hair, more outspoken atttitude & more ballsy rock & roll.  I thought they looked cool during the early sixties as well, of course, especially at Shea, but they looked bad a** before the breakup.

It's too bad there isn't any footage of them performing, back in their leather days with Pete on drums, only pictures & the Star Club recordings, because I would like to see it, if it exist.

yeah it is sad...that's when they were struggling to win an audience..it must have been quite a show....i hope someday something surfaces but face it personal cameras back then were shitty and what would we have but shitty recordings...until then we can only imagine what it must have been like...that makes it a magical era...

I agree with 65/66.

But that photo is so cool, in its own way. ^

What about the early image with leather jackets and rockabilly hair styles? They look pretty cool in that monochrome pic with all five of them looking 'bad' holding their instruments.

I am totally choked for an answer. Put me down as another for, "Always cool!"

Other 1963-1966. Paul, don't even get me started. George made unibrows so cute! Ringo had a baby face and John looked so much fuller and good looking. I didn't like it when he lost all the weight because well he just looked ill.

Beatles were the Coolest no doubt in the time of the Germany Hamburge sets!

The Hamburge tapes I got off the masters Like  Red sails in the sunset--Hippie shake ect!

This was so hot--fast & clean or Raw Beatles unpolished by Epstiens desire for suits & pretty boy look!

They ahd fun & Rocked!

Sure Epstein took them far--but they lost the fun when he came in!

Many deniles--many cold nights & long days playing for less now!

They had to pay for gass-Brian---demos ect!


I'm just sitting here --watching the wheels go round!
I realy love to watch them roll!

Their peak of popularity was 63 - 66, but they became insanely popular again when the CDs were first released in the 1980s.
