The Beatles vs. The Beach Boys

[mr fluffernutter]

vs.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

they have collaborated. (i am thinking of paul mccartney playing on the beach boys recording of vegetables)

[chronoaug]

Ringo never fails to make me laugh. I love how much he was picked on in the old beatles movies

[yupsterism]

thank you. this is a far more worthy and more compelling discussion. ;/

i prefer the beatles early stuff. i dont really dig their progress and experiments with their latter albums.

i like the beach boys and have been listening to them quite a lot but i dont like their albums, but i like their singles a lot.

i must say that i appreciate what what both bands have done to revolutionize music as we know now.

Enemies ALWAYS collaborate to defeat the greater evil.

The problem is I still can't choose!

every time someone says that pet sounds is an all-time great record i want to gut them like a pig.

[landho]

Pet Sounds is better and more coherent than anything The Beatles put out and "Good Vibrations" is a better song than anything The Beatles ever did, but The Beatles' body of work trumps The Beach Boys'.

Please Uncle Kunk I hope you still love me:(

There are some seriously GOOD songs. Mabye you just don't APPRECIATE pop music.

[kunk75]

prepare to be gutted in a porcine way.

and no, i don't appreciate pop music much.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

Pet Sounds is an astounding record. I had to take a break from it for maybe 5 or so years before I could tolerate it again, but yeah, on mono, hard to beat.

[landho]

What can I give Kunk for tribute to calm the savage beast?

[hawkeye]

GEORGE HARRlSON

YES!!!

This is too tough to pick one, but Ive been listneing to more Beach Boys lately. I love the Beatles and their songs, but the Beach Boys really get me. I was listening to Wendy the other day and was thinking if I could only listen to one song for the rest of my life I would probably pick that one, now I'm thinking maybe Surfs Up.. fuck. Shit gets me in my soul...

[kunk75]

also have to add how chuck berry suing the beach boys for the melody of surfin usa gave me a bad impression of the beach boys

this is a real good beach boys song that's somehow not on any of their albums

loop de loop (yousendit)

Pretty much yeah.

Brian Wilson is a fucking genius with melodies and arrangements.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

may i brag a little here?

i have the BB "surfin'" 45 on the candix label in fuckin' awesome condition. my stepfather let me dig through his records... free

[mr fluffernutter]

Surf's Up is so goodness. I think I've decided... Beach Boys gets my vote

[Halifamous]

I don't get The Beatles.

Beach, all the way.

co-sign.

Also, Beach Boys are vastly more enjoyable to listen to; some of the best pop songs ever made. Especiallllllllllly with the windows down.
