The White Album is one of those albums that bands and artists try to make but can't. This is bias of me, but I believe Led Zeppelin and Pearl Jam are two bands that made their White Album and achieved.

I'll have to check some of these out. I've never bought a Beatles album ever. I don't dislike them just never took the time to listen. Much bigger fan of Zeppelin and Floyd.

Sorry, not to intervene here, but I just noticed your screen name...have you read that book, '5 Against 1'?
I've read it. It's pretty good, but seems unfairly disparaging to Eddie. I also got the feeling the author doesn't really like Pearl Jam that much, and just wanted to make some $$$.
I thought it was pretty good, too...I didn't really get the sense though that the author didn't like them that much...didn't really think about it. Yes, it did seem disparaging to Eddie, although, I have read on a few other occasions that he is sometimes the more difficult one to deal with, so maybe there is some truth to it...I don't know (she definitely seemed to be on Dave Abbruzzeses' side, for one. )...I did wonder, though, if the band endorsed that book or reviewed it or 'signed off on it' or anything...

That's pretty nonsensical. I don't hate them, I just don't like their music at all, it bores me, it's nothing special to me. I don't feel I need to justify my record collection as a result of this either.
Yes, they may have had a influence on a lot of bands, but nearly all of them? Doubtful. It's been over 40 years since they were making music - I would be worried if bands were not looking at more recent times for their influences, rather than all using the same one.

My best advice is to start from the beginning. Just listen to the progression of them.
I entirely disagree. For someone who never gave The Beatles much of a serious listen, starting at the beginning could really turn them off. I think these days a new fan, unless they are really young (like my nephew when he was 3...), starting at *least* at Rubber Soul or Revolver is the way to go. But I also think that if someone is posting on a PJ board (or any band's board really), they probably have particular musical interests that might help determine where a good starting point is. For example: the guy said he likes Floyd and Zep. Knowing that he also likes PJ, I would say that the best place for him to start would be anywhere between Sgt Peppers to Abbey Road. The later era stuff could be the hook/line/sinker. To delve into The Beatles, with his current tastes, and go straight for stuff like "Please Please Me" or "I Want To Hold Your Hand" has potential fail written all over it.

It doesn't bother me that people don't like The Beatles. It was a different era and the songs were pretty poppy. There's a lot of Beatles stuff I like but a lot I find a bit limp. Each to their own.

I like some Foo Fighter songs, but I couldn't make it more than 10 minutes through one of their live DVDs due to Dave's constant need to scream and try to amp the crowd up. Found it really cheesy, even though I like what the guy stands for most of the time.

no need to get riled up. i never said you have to like the beatles. i just said i don't understand how you can hate them. there's a big difference. would you say you hate the beatles? doubt it. that's what this thread is about. "bands you can't stand". i can understand not feeling a connection to their music. or being bored with it. that's understandable. they haven't made music together in over 40 years...but to hate them is going a little far.................just my perspective. obviously the haters are gonna hate. but inside, i know they know they're full of shit.

Ugh. I have a deep hatred for No Doubt. I don't mind Gwen Stefani on her own, and I think musically, the band is okay, but together...ARGH!! In "I'm Just A Girl" her voice sounds worse than nails on a chalkboard...more like minnie mouse huffing helium. Seriously, when I'm in a store and Spiderwebs or another crap song comes on, my ears try to revolt and leave my body. It's terrible. I've tried to get past it but I just cannot. It's almost a phobia. :thumbdown:
<b>One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain</b> <i>~Bob Marley</i>
I'm actually sad to say that I don't care for the Beatles. This is a band that I WANT to like. I understand the historical significance and the influence that they had on music. I enjoy John Lennon's music, as well as his message, but when I listen to the Beatles, it does nothing for me. I was told that I might like some of the more trippy stuff, maybe I haven't heard it, but nothing has moved me. I don't hate them, I'm just not turned on by their music. :?

no need to get riled up. i never said you have to like the beatles. i just said i don't understand how you can hate them. there's a big difference. would you say you hate the beatles? doubt it. that's what this thread is about. "bands you can't stand". i can understand not feeling a connection to their music. or being bored with it. that's understandable. they haven't made music together in over 40 years...but to hate them is going a little far.................just my perspective. obviously the haters are gonna hate. but inside, i know they know they're full of shit.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand??????????
