Was Grand Funk Railroad better than the Beatles?

After all. do the Beatles come into your town and help you party down?

[bobbobbins]

1. no, but their magical mystery tour came to take me away

4. Where did it take you? Detroit?

[saltpoint]

2. Oh, yes. Certainly. Why even ask? The Beatles were awful.

They had no talent, no imagination, no energy, no appeal, no sustaining impact on popular culture whatsoever.

A bunch of hacks. Overrated, derivative pastiche. I'll hate 'em to the ends of the earth and All Time.

Now Grand Funk Railroad. THERE'S a band.

5. It's funny...

.... but people who weren't *there* really cannot understand the Beatles. The music was only a part of it, the Beatles MADE the 60s what it was - they changed the world.

It wasn't necessarily all on purpose, but it was nonetheless.

7. Frankly the 60's sounds like a godawful time

I'm very happy that my HS class in the 90's didn't all get sent to die in some jungle hellhole

9. I wasn't there, but I looooooooooooooooooooove the Beatles!!

10. Amen, amen and amen. And if you really sit with some headphones..

and listen to the words and music, it's astounding what those young men were doing. Each piece was better than the piece before it. They just grew in leaps and bounds.

6. They had a far better name,

that's for damn sure!

[Kahuna]

8. No.
