If Quincy was right about Ringo, then maybe they really didn't need to fire Pete.

It's certainly a mixed bag. I don't hear anything suggesting plagiarism between those two songs.

He's not right about Ringo. Ringo has enough kudos from musicians that one jaundiced view doesn't mean anything. And by lumping in Paul shows how silly his view is. Paul's musicianship is beyond question.
Yeah remember reading this last year It's to annoying when people that haven't been relevant for years - if at all lol - deliberately talk trash to get attention Actually it's pathetic Get lost queency!!!
People who knock the Beatles are stupid. They're not worth listening to on any subject. I think some of them think this makes them superior to the Beatles. It's like if I insult someone, that means I'm better than they are. At least, that's what they want you to think.
So, what you should say to them is: "Wow, you're a genius. Man, you're totally amazing. You cut down the Beatles - man, you're awesome!! Now, because of you, I know the Beatles were nothing - but you - you just blow them away with how intelligent you are! It doesn't matter that they're considered the most popular band in music history - you know better, don't you?"
I've had people cut me down for liking the Beatles. I was ganged up on by some coworkers years ago. They acted like I had the mentality of someone whose idea of sport was to see how much bubblegum he could chew before choking on it or like a stupid duck who couldn't learn how to swim. But at the same time I thought of them as being so stupid they couldn't distinguish between the smell of a fart and the smell of a sweet perfume. To this day, I wish I had a comeback for them but I was never good at being sarcastic. I was always at a loss of words so I took everything in mute silence.
I'm fine with people that never got the Beatles, that is on them. Someone like Quincy Jones though, did he always feel this way or is it a moment in time? Something set him off? I have a friend at work that one time, long time ago, made fun of a McCartney solo cd in my car, he didn't know how deep my fandom went. BTW - he has a love of the 80's plus isn't afraid to let people know he enjoys listening to boy bands too...
Heard a rumour that in the late 60's Paul wanted to do his own drumming on his own songs. Ringo was not amused.
Read that the Beatles were competent rather than virtuoso muscians. John, Paul & George could all play a variety of instruments.
I'm sure George could have played the 'While my Guitar Gently Weeps' solo himself. George said the other Beatles were not enthusiastic during the recording. So he asked Clapton along.

Very few musicians acheive the rank of "virtuoso." The Beatles would all have agreed to what you read. Well, maybe with the exception of Ringo who would sometimes say he was "the greatest." ;D

I'm not sure why the others would have objected. By the time Abbey Road was recorded, The Beatles had a history of bringing in other musicians for recording sessions.
This is the song Quincy criticized Ringo for: "Love is a Many Splendored Thing." Now, I'm not sure if Ringo actually played on this. Does anyone know?

If he was referring to Ringos singing on those that would be understandable. No one would claim that Ringo was/is a great vocalist.

That seems to be one of those rumours that feeds into the bollocks you here that Paul was a better drummer than Ringo. I've never heard anything of Paul that would in any way show he came close to Ringo. Paul struck me as competent but rarely more than that.
It was only on Hal Blaine's death I heard he actually did some drum overdubs on Band on the Run. He didn't remember which songs though.
Quote from: Hello Goodbye on Apr 27, 2019, 02:38 PM
Just a rumor.
Is it? (I'm not trying to be snarky, Barry.) I read (of course, I can't remember the specific book) that during the Abbey Road sessions Paul would go back and overdub Ringo's drumming with his own on most of the songs. I recall reading that his wife said Ringo would often come home in tears.
Also, of course, one can't believe everything one reads. So I'm not sure if this is true or not.
Ringo in tears? Mind you Ringo does sometimes get emotional in interviews.
Not sure how The Beatles could be so popular if they were such poor musicians. They were constantly playing live from the 1950's to 1966 & constantly in the studio during virtually all of the 1960's.
Ringo's drumming, Paul's bass playing & George branching out to the sitar have all been praised.
Sentimental Journey is a great 1st album by Ringo. IMHO, it's better than McCartney and All Things Must Pass.
John said he was embarrassed by it. What a shame! He didn't appreciate Ringo. Well, I can't imagine anyone who thinks of himself as a genius could.
But what do I know? Maybe I'm just a music simpleton. I mean I can't get into classical music or jazz so I guess I'm one of the primitives of the world. Maybe I should try to find an aborigine tribe I could join (if they'll have me, that is.)
Wasn't the 'McCartney' album recorded in a couple of days. With Paul playing all the instruments? It shows.
A lot different to 'The Beatles' Paul who used to take so much time with his songs. Agree with John when he said he thought 'McCartney' was 'rubbish'.
Paul found a bit of consistency in 1973 with 'Band on the Run', which John praised. 'Live and Let Die' also had polished production and suited the film.

Sorry about that. i got carried away and I tend to say crazy things when I'm in one of my crazy moods. I really like Paul's and George's 1st albums, too. I just talk crazy (lots of times).
I really just like the big band approach on Ringo's album. Lots of the drumming is really good on Sentimental Journey. I think Ringo was kind of humble having drummers who were better than he was play on his record.
The bottom line is that if you see a post by Loco Mo (me), don't take it too seriously. I guess I'm like my dad who no one ever should ever have taken seriously but always did. My dad lived in an alcohol-infused world and his view of the real world reflected the hazy lenses through which he viewed it. I mean look: I wrote a post one night calling Yoko the Greatest. Don't even take me with a grain of salt.

Emerick quit during the sessions but I don't recall him mentioning Paul redoing Ringo's drums. I'll have a look in his book, but this looks like a myth to me.
I find the whole concept of overdubbing drums curious. Clearly it used to be done but I wonder how you could do it without it being obvious. Especially up to the late 60s when presumably the original drums weren't even on their own track. Since all drum tracks, and hence the instruments accompanying them, will have slight timing variations, I don't see how you could overdub and keep in close enough time to not make it sound odd.

I agree
It's all a bit of a storm in a teacup really, isn't it?
Quincy's entitled to his opinion and presumably gave an honest answer to a straight question. Will anyone particularly pay attention? will he sway anyone's opinions of The Beatles by now? I somehow doubt it.
Didn't UK National Treasure Sir Cliff Richard say something very similar about them a few years ago? about them being woefully out of tune and rather grating on the ear when he first heard them? Of course they knocked him and his Shadows off their perch but I don't remember coming away with the impression that Cliff was being churlish. Rather an honest (subjective) opinion laced with much irony in a "shows just how wrong I was!" sort of way. I'd like to give Quincy the same benefit of the doubt but I admit I haven't read the complete article.

It's a bit of a "tell all" interview. But he avoids questions on Bill Cosby.
Apart from criticising the Beatles musicianship he also says the Irish are racist, Hendrix was scared to record with good musicians, the mafia killed Kennedy, the Catholic church is corrrupt and Trump is a *********ing idiot.
It's certainly worth reading.

You're right. It is a little annoying though that he's supplied the internet " the Beatles couldn't play" trolls with another easy talking point to derail conversations whenever the Beatles are brought up.
Apparently quite a lot of people thought the Beatles were out of tune when they first heard them. Testimony to the less common harmonies they used compared to most pop artists of the day.

I think Quincy is criticising the fact that they're not musical virtuosi. He doesn't seem to understand that you don't need to be a great musician to write, record and perform brilliant songs. He's in awe of jazz musicians who quite often never create an original tune but just play around with the same old standards.

I agree that he was saying they wern't virtuoso but Strongly disagree with you about Jazz musicians not writing new tunes, your ignoring people like Joe Zawinul, Chick Corea, Pat Metheny, Wayne Shorter, Miles Davis, Jaco Pastorius, Herbie Hancock and lots more.
Loads of modern day Jazz albums stuffed with new tunes.

The only one Quincy mentions is Herbie Hancock and the only thing I know by him is Rockit which is not exactly earth-shattering. Name me some tunes by the others and I'll give them a listen.
Quincy also mentions that he liked Cream. I suppose this is because they were a group who, live, mainly improvised on old standard blues songs to show how well they could play their instruments. I bet Quincy couldn't name an original song by them.

Yes I agree. To be fair Quincy has spent a lifetime around amazing technical musicians. Most rock/pop musicians, usually coming from a more self taught background, will suffer in comparison.
Where I think he missed it is that musicianship is a combination of musicality and technical accomplishment. The Beatles, and others in the genre, weren't at the height of technical prowess but I think they all were very musical. Frankly I put more store in musicality than technical proficiency. Even a basic player who has great musicality will put something worthwhile across. While someone who is just a technical whizz without much musicality will sound sterile and dull. At best you might go wow at some amazing technical lick. Gets old very fast though.
It's interesting he said he liked Cream. Some jazz musos I know think Clapton is a joke. (Although they give wraps to Jack Bruce). It's hard to know where genuine critiquing ends and music snobbery begins though.

Thanks, Moog. Sometimes I'm not too sure about posting. But usually my impulse to do so wins out.
I've run into Quincy Jones type-critics throughout my life so this article really caught my eye.
I think he was just grandstanding and trying to gaslight us but that won't work. I'm not gonna fall for a presumed expert's POV. My soul responds to the Beatles - that's what matters. Book smarts and technical smarts do not necessarily create masterpieces and if they do, sometimes those can only be appreciated dryly or clinically.
Those Beatles - you can't reduce their power with bogus defamatory accusations while hoping to dupe gullible listeners.
It reminds me of the book "I'm okay; You're not Okay." The idea being that I can only feel good about myself if I can believe someone else to be bad.

Eric Clapton if he put in the required years of study could become a very good jazz guitarist he definitely has the skill in his fingers... however why should he when he's making millions in the rock genre, jazz musicians are mainly poor but they do it for the love of jazz music.
Two members of cream were originally jazz musicians Jack Bruce and ginger Baker both started out playing jazz but turned to rock music I suppose when they figured that's the way they could make most money and yet most gigs...... to play jazz you need technical expertise you need to have studied your instrument for years and be able to sight read.
I started listening to jazz about 10 years ago because I became bored with songs in the rock and pop genre it's just the same thing over and over again I started to listen to jazz , I realised it was so deep it's no use somebody saying send me a name of the jazz song and I'll listen to it you really have to understand what's going on and listen to it maybe 30 times before you start to get it. I now listen to jazz radio probably 3 or 4 hours a day I have it on my Sonos speaker in my lounge room I have never found music so rewarding since I discovered The Beatles.
I think as a newcomer to jazz you have to go on a bit of a journey you have to read about it as well as listen to it and maybe find some understanding of the genre you have to try to understand what Miles Davis was doing when he recorded the best selling jazz album of all time, Kind of Blue, it's an interesting journey and I thoroughly recommend it to any music lover.

The knowledge and technical work most jazzers have done is why I think they can get a bit sniffy with some more popular artists such as Clapton. I'm not even sure what the guys I know real objection to Clapper is. Maybe that he's held up as one of the all time greats and they think he just noodles around in a blues scale. Personally I think he's a great guitarist to listen to.
I haven't ever taken the time to really get into jazz beyond some of the fusion stuff like Mahavishnu. I went more the classical/opera route when pop music stopped doing it for me for a while. It might be a project for my retirement ;)

You said modern jazz musicians made great tunes and you can't name one I should listen to?
I've listened to jazz records for over fifty years including Kind of Blue shortly after it came out. This music is generally boring, egotistical and often tuneless.
And jazz fans always seem to think their music is deeper than other music or superior in some way.
You intimate that Clapton does what he does for the money whereas jazz musicians are some kind of saints to their art. Clapton has taken many risks duirng his career but he's an anathema to you because he's... popular and rich through his music.

Who is Quincy Jones?
I came on here to see what fans on here think about the new movie Yesterday but then I sadly saw this topic,and I have to post this information debunking the totally untrue,stupid ludicrous things Quincy Jones said about The Beatles musicianship.
12 Of Paul McCartney's Greatest Basslines
One of the greatest songwriters of all-time also helped write the book on rock and roll bass guitar.
This great article from classic rock radio station Q104.3 very accurately says in the description of The Beatles 1963 live performance of Paul's great rocking song I Saw Her Standing There,that Paul was already a killer bassist by the time the band broke through in America,his line from I Saw Her Standing There positively cooks with rock n roll walking bass excitement!
https://q1043.iheart.com/featured/ken-dashow/content/2017-06-19-12-of-paul-mccartneys-greatest-bass-lines-ever/# (https://q1043.iheart.com/featured/ken-dashow/content/2017-06-19-12-of-paul-mccartneys-greatest-bass-lines-ever/#)]https://q1043.iheart.com/featured/ken-dashow/content/2017-06-19-12-of-paul-mccartneys-greatest-bass-lines-ever/#
What Quincy Jones said was so extremely stupid and ludicrous! He actually had the nerve to call Paul up and try to deny he ever said this but sadly the damage has already been done. If I was Paul and Ringo I would not only never speak to Quincy again but I would sue him for libel,slander and defamation of character because he did un repairable damage to The Beatles reputation as musicians and this kind of ignorant Beatle hating inaccurate nonsense was already all over the internet before which only has been increased since the ludicrous,ignorant nonsense he said.
Paul Mccartney was asked in his Q Magazine interview about what Quincy said and said he was totally off his tree,but sadly even this doesn't help refute it,because Quincy has been quoted by ignorant Beatles haters everywhere and in articles quoting Paul's response,they still insist Quincy was right.

In this PDF file of several chapters from the book The Beatles And Their Revolutionary Bass Player by bass player Dennis Alstrand,he explains that Paul' McCartney's bass playing was already first rate in 1961 only months after he learned to play it which he got stuck with because John and George didn't want to play it, and he was not a bad bass player by 1963 and you can hear on The Beatles 1963 and 1964 recordings and live playing that he was already very good even on such primitive,limited sound systems with no feedback monitors so they couldn't even hear themselves singing and playing yet they still sang and played great and in sync with each other anyway.
And very limited,primitive recording technology recording technology and many people said this about his bass playing too in reviews of the remastered The Beatles Live At The Hollywood Bowl album and I could hear this too just from 3 minutes of samples on amazon.com. Many people also said you can hear George Harrison's great guitar playing,Ringo's great underrated drumming,and John Lennon's great underrated rhythm guitar playing, and Paul became a great bass player starting on The Beatles late 1965 Rubber Soul album.

George Martin said in The Beatles early days he tried to learn to play the guitar in order to have a better musical communication between him and The Beatles,but he couldn't learn it and gave it up,but he says that John and Paul learned to play the piano far more quickly than he was able to master their instrument.

Relative obscurity for a while. '64/'65 were not banner years for the development of rock bass playing. As always, his playing was tasteful and right in the ... And Wilco's John Stirratt was asked in Bass Player in February 2005 which bass players have had the most impact on his playing and the first thing he said was, Paul McCartney is one of the greatest bass players of all time,if you listen to what he was tracking live in the studio it's unbelievable." "With his tone and musicality he was a huge influence,he covered all of his harmonic responsibilities really well but his baselines were absolutely melodic and inventive."

This very good 1990 MTV Paul McCartney rocumentary the narrator rightly says McCartney has been many things over the last three decades, a hardcore rock and roller,a pure pop star,a trailblazing bassist,and the cutest guy in the worlds most popular band,but above all else from the beginning he's been a world class song writer.
The Beatles producer George Martin is also interviewed and he said that soon after he started to work with them in the recording studio,which was late 1962,early 1963,he said they emerged as pretty brilliant and started to really think about song writing in a very serious way.

Rockumentary - Paul McCartney
Beatles expert Mark Lewisohn debunked this myth a few years ago that John Lennon ever said that Ringo wasn't even the best drummer in The Beatles and found out that John Lennon never said this about Ringo's drumming it was a British comedian named Jasper Carrot who said this stupid ridiculous nonsense in 1983,*3* years after
John died.

Here in this 1971 interview at the Sgt.Regis Hotel John Lennon is asked by the interviewer about him using drummer Jim Keltner and if this was a reflection on Ringo's drumming.And John said, Oh no I love his drumming. He then said I think Keltner is a bit technically better but Ringo is still one of the best drummers in rock.
http://web.archive.org/web/20080108131358/http://www.geocities.com/wireless_machine/lennon/st_regis.htm (http://web.archive.org/web/20080108131358/http://www.geocities.com/wireless_machine/lennon/st_regis.htm)]http://web.archive.org/web/20080108131358/http://www.geocities.com/wireless_machine/lennon/st_regis.htm
And who did John Lennon use as a drummer on his first brilliant solo album John Lennon Plastic Ono Band when he could have gotten almost anyone who would have jumped at the chance to play on one of John's albums? Ringo and he played great on it too.
And Ringo Starr was already a successful drummer in the most popular successful band in Liverpool,Rory Storm and The Hurricanes when John,Paul and George asked him to join The Beatles.And George Martin didn't think that Pete Best was that good,and he and John,Paul and George thought that Ringo was much better.
Also Phil Collins and Max Weinberg are both Ringo fans. And Phil Collins ( who has always been a big Beatles fan and he was in the audience in the concert scene in their great movie A Hard Day's Night at age 13) says he can't even duplicate Ringo's great drumming in A Day In The Life. George Martin says that Ringo always had a great feel and ear for a song and that it was his idea to play the tom toms on A Day In The Life giving it a unique percussion sound.
Mark Lewisohn says in his great book,The Beatles Recording Sessions,that on a handful of occasions during all of the several hundred session tapes and thousand of recording hours can Ringo be heard to have made a mistake or wavered in his beat. He then says that his work was remarkably consistent-and excellent-from 1962 right through to 1970.
Also in a May 1981 phone conversation that Paul McCartney had with Hunter Davies,the author of the only authorized Beatles biography,called appropriately,The Beatles that first came out in 1968,and he updated many times,Paul said that he didn't have anything against Stuart Sutcliffe, he just couldn't play bass well at all and Paul has said elsewhere that he had big music ambitions for The Beatles,and in this phone conversation he said it was the same with Pete Best,that it was all junk that they replaced him with Ringo because they were jealous of him being more popular,Paul said Ringo was so much better.
Phil Collins says Ringo was a fantastic drummer and George Harrison was a great guitar player. Phil has been a big Beatles fan since he was 13 and he was in the concert audience in The Beatles first film,a Hard Day's Night in 1964.

He also said that the album had rock and pop songs and that it starts with Paul's I Saw Her Standing There which he calls pure rock and roll,and he said John's vocal on Twist And Shout,(which John sang so great with a bad sore throat from a bad cold) was hard rock before any hard rock was being done.

George Harrison at only age 14 would stay up playing his guitar until he got all of the chords exactly right and his fingers were bleeding.
And the funny thing is,is that Geoff Emerick was the one who says in Mark Lwishon's excellent Beatles music diary,The Beatles Recording Sessions that in early 1966 when The Beatles were recording John's song I'm Only Sleeping, George Harrison played backwards guitar the most difficult way possible even though he could have taken an easy way,and it took him 6 hours just to do the guitar overdubs.
He then made it doubly difficult by adding even more distorted guitars and Geoff says this was all George's idea and that he did all of the playing.

A lot of The early Beatles lyrics were more simple but a lot of their early music was actually much more complex. Just one of many examples I always loved this very early John song written and recorded in 1962 Ask Me Why.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ex-epsPWo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ex-epsPWo)
I have always loved this great beautiful song written by John,with such typical beautiful melodies and harmonies John and Paul usually wrote,and John's usual beautiful singing voice.And this was amazingly recorded in 1962 on only two track tape with such limited,primitive recording technology but it of course still sounds great.Except I hate mono it's limited sounding and only makes their already limited recording technology sound even more limited.I tried to find the stereo version of this song on youtube but I couldn't find it.
Here university of Pennsylvania ( 1 of the top ivy league universities in the US) graduate musicologist Alan W.Pollack who did an 11 year extensive analysis of every one of the 200 Beatles songs,analyzes Ask Me Why and explains that it's structurally complex.
Here is Alan's analysis of Paul McCartney's 1963 very good song All My Loving and he describes it as having a lot of complex chords and other unusual musical things.Many people have pointed out on music and Beatles fan site forums that John Lennon played great,difficult fast rhythm guitar triplets,well it turns out John( and George and Paul on bass) was playing a whole bunch of complex chords this fast and great!

Giles Martin,George Martin's son who recently remastered The Beatles 1964 and 1965 Live At The Hollywood Bowl concerts rightfully says on All Songs Considered when people ask him if The Beatles were a good live band,he says they were a great live band and he mention the very limited,primitive sound systems they had back then,and says how great The Beatles played live in the studio on their first 3 or 4 albums,and that they all played their instruments very good.
He obviously means they played these first several albums live because they didn't even have any overdubbing until 1965 so they had to play and record those albums live.And their first albums before the great A Hard Day's Night album were recorded on only 2 track tape,they had 4 track by A Hard Day's Night and only 8 track for The White album,Let It Be and Abbey Road.
By the time they recorded and played live their first album Please Please Me recorded in only in one day in February 1963,they had 1000's of hours of live playing experience playing 8 hours a night from 1960-1962 in the sleazy strip clubs in Hamburg Germany and had to take speed pills to stay awake to do it,and John Lennon said every song was 20 minutes long,and had 20 minute solos in it. Then they played successfully live in the Liverpool Cavern Club for years before they made the Please Please Me album.

One of the many important things Scott says is what is so unique about The Beatles is that they had a group with three very strong song writers who had honed their craft through 1,000's of 1000's of hours of playing together .

This very good London Times review of the remastered The Beatles Live at The Hollywood Bowl album says it's remarkable that The Beatles played as well as they did given that they couldn't hear a thing beyond the screaming of 17,500 teenage girls.They should have also mentioned the poor very primitive and limited sound systems of the time and no feedback monitors so they also couldn't hear themselves singing and playing but the amazingly sang and played great and in sync with each other anyway.
It says that they were a lean and vibrant rock n roll band honed to perfection after toughing it out with five sets a night in rough Hamburg nightclubs.

In this 2016 BBC interview Larry Kane who interviewed The Beatles from 1964-1966 and says he was at 46 Beatles concerts and there wasn't a bad one among them.
He also said that he thinks Ron Howard's documentary (Eight Days A Week) is a reminder how good The Beatles were as musicians,that modern musicians will look at the puny sound equipment they had and will be amazed and that some concerts had the music going out on the stadiums public address systems.

I also met two people and know a third one who saw The Beatles in concert,one woman and one man who were my high school teachers who saw them in 1966,and the other my second cousin who saw them at the Baltimore Coliseum when she was 16 in 1964,she became a psychologist.They all told me that they were close enough to them to see and hear the The Beatles and that they were great.

Here is an Isolated instrumental I Want To Hold Your Hand recorded in October 1963,The Beatles sound like very good musicians that they were and playing 8 hours a night from 1960-1962,and as John Lennon said every song was 20 minutes long and had 20 minute solos in them,and they had to take speed pills to stay awake to do it.
Then they played at The Liverpool Cavern Club live successfully for years. And by the time they recorded their first album played live in only one day,they had 1000's of live playing experience.

As this reviewer S Riaz in their great review of the book, I Want To Tell You-The Definitive Guide To The Music Of The Beatles Volume 1 1962/1963 by musician Anthony Robustelli explains Once the basic information is out of the way, there is backround about who wrote it,where and when it was released,plus a lot of detailed information and analysis of the music itself. For lovers of music there is endless discussion about chord progressions,instruments, influences and the eclectic musical tastes,sophistication and complexity which The Beatles showed right from the start of their recording career.

The Beatles even in their early days were writing and playing on records as well in concerts,both love ballads,and great rocking rock n roll and pop rock songs that they both wrote and cover songs including their great rocking performances in Sweden where the audience was quiet during their performances. Here is their great rocking performance of Paul's I Saw Her Standing There in Sweden in 1963 Live on Drop-In TV Show, Stockholm, Sweden. October 30, 1963.

I Saw Her Standing There (Live) - The Beatles
Live on Drop-In TV Show, Stockholm, Sweden. October 30, 1963.
Live on Drop-In TV Show, Stockholm, Sweden. October 30, 1963. They were the greatest *rock* band ever and I have always loved this great blues rocker by Paul, recorded in the studio October 1964,She's A Woman they performed in 1965 .
The All Music Guide also called this a hard rocking song. Beatles '65 - The Beatles Songs, Reviews, Credits
AllMusic Except live there isn't the piano,blending with the great rocking guitars,Paul's great prominent booming bass,and his greatrock vocal. And once again it's amazing how good they sound on such limited,primitive sound systems of the time and with no feedback monitors so they couldn't even hear themselves singing and playing,yet they still played and sang great and in sync with each other anyway The Beatles HD - She is A Woman (Remastered)

Here is their even harder rocking performance at Shea Stadium on August 15,1965 than they did on their record version of Paul's I'm Down. And they did what a great rock n roll band would do,they ended this rock n roll concert with this rocking song.

I love this concert because it represents the euphoric apex of their invasion into the United States. The intensity is off the charts. Unfortunately the recording has so much static and white noise screaming that it was really hard to pull much out of it; on the other hand, in spite of that, I have still always enjoyed raucous sound.

Here are The Rolling Stones live in 1963 and 1964 they don't sound better or even as good as The Beatles live then. They aren't even rocking that much.

ROLLING STONES - Carol - 1964
ROLLING STONES - Oh Carol. One of the Rolling Stones earliest TV appearances in the US... on The Mike Douglas Show. "Oh Carol" appears to be live. That song is followed by the Stones lip-syncing "Tell Me." Next is silly banter between the Stones and the host, who then invites onstage a couple of out-of-control girls from the audience. Be sure ...

As a Rolling Stones fan even said on the Rolling Stones fan site,IORR The Beatles were the better live band until 1966 and he said The Rolling Stones didn't become a great live band until 1969 and he linked a 1967 Rolling Stones concert and he said it was bad.
Here are pictures of the very early Rolling Stones in 1963 wearing matching suits and ties just like The early Beatles did with their fake cleaned up image their manager created for them in their early days.

The Beatles Tune In: Mark Lewisohn's definitive account of ...
For days after Christmas I didn't leave the sofa, enthralled by The Beatles Tune In, the first of three volumes in which Mark Lewisohn intends to tell the definitive story of the Beatles.
gerryco23.wordpress.com
Very simply, musicologically and ethnically, The Beatles were essentially empirical melangists of a rhythmically radical yet verbally passé and temporarily transcended lyrical content, welded with historically innovative melodical material transposed and transmogrified by the angst of the Liverpool ethnic experience, which elevated them from essentially alpha exponents of, in essence, merely beta potential harmonic material, into the prime cultural exponents of Aeolian cadenzic cosmic stanza form.
Did you just swallow a thesaurus?

There's some good alliteration in there, too! ;)
