whatdoyathink of the plastic ono band?

favorite beatle?

fav song?

fav cover of a beatles song?

I won't argue on Yoko's singing merits, but she was a "conceptual artist" before she hooked up w/ John, and did some things with Ornette Coleman, who is a giant, but a topic for a completely different venue.



Playing the age card here; I actually saw the Ed Sullivan Show on TV w/ the Beatles when I was in 3rd or 4th grade. Being a drummer, my favorite at that time would have been Ringo, although through the years I came to respect George's musicianship and then John's wit and political awareness - although you can give it up to George too in that area (cf. Monty Python, Traveling Wilburys, etc.)



Anything on "Revolver" could be a favorite. I like Sgt. Pepper too; for some reason I never bought Rubber Soul but it's also cool.



"here, there & everywhere" is gorgeous. "If I fell' likewise if a little treacly. "Blackbird"... mmm.



"Cover"? hmm... maybe Joe Cocker "a little help" but that's almost comedic. Bobby McFerrin has a wonderful version of "Blackbird"; so does Jaco Pastorius (hard to go wrong there...)



They were a great band, and even though I might be a 'jazz snob' they were all very talented and their work has *lasted*, which is the hallmark of any great artist.

You didnt think I was going to let you guys get away without a fight, did you?  Joe - Everything is squared with PayPal so WHEN I win, We'll be able to lock the deal!!



Fav Beatle: I would have to say John - Mostly because of his outspokenness (Is that a word?) and most often being misunderstood.



Favorite Cover:  I think I would have to agree with Kyle on this question, I usually do not like Cover songs although there have been a few songs from artists that have been Chillingly close to the original bands they have covered.  And of the Beatles songs, I think that Fiona Apple has to be the best one I have heard.



Favorite Song: There are so many, how can I be forced to pick just one?  I just can't so here are 3 of my favorites:  Across the Universe, A day in the Life, and Norwegian Wood.



The first Album I listened (thats right kids, I know what Vinyl Records and 8 tracks are) was Sgt Peppers Lonely Heart Club Band.  I was 5 years old when he was shot and my mom sat me down and we listened to the entire album and for the rest of my kindergarten year I would come home from school and would have to listen to The Beatles.  I now have all 21 albums released in the US, and 6 of the 12 that were released in the UK.  They are not all in the best condition, but are definitely collectors material.  This disc will be a great addition to that collection!!!!



AND NO I DO NOT WANT TO SELL!  :)

[amdiscgolfer]

No, I didnt win the lotto, Just got my PayPal account in order and am ready to add this disc to my collection.



Hey by the way, does anyone have an idea of how much the Great Disc Golf Holes of the World discs are worth.  



At the Am Rumbletown I got one from Waldo Stolpa for sending Sandy Point Disc Golf Ranch about 30 discs when I found out that the rental discs they let people use were stolen. (SAVAGES!!!!!!)



The disc I have is Hole 1 of Addison Oaks Park - Oakland County, MI!



I am not looking to sell it, just want to know about how much it is worth.

[amdiscgolfer]

You'll have to find out! :P  I must let you know that I am off tomorrow and will be sitting at the PC for the day waiting to finish the deal for the Lennon Disc.

[amdiscgolfer]

English Man, English!
