There's The Beatles And Then....
....there's "everybody else".
Watching the CBS Grammy Special celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Fab Four and it's, except for a few flat moments from Brad Paisley and Maroon 5, fabulous!
(But why only 2 1/2 hours instead of three hours? Do we really need to be force-fed a crappy sitcom called 'The Millers'? I'd rather have another 1/2 hour of The Beatles.)
John and George are sorely missed but Yoko Ono is there along with George's wife and son. But hey - where the fuck is Cynthia and Julian Lennon? I do NOT like how they have either been forced out of The Beatles (and John's) legacy or have voluntarily done so (I don't know why they're not there but they should be).
KILLER 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' with Dave Grohl (on drums!), Joe Walsh and some black guy with a weird hat. LOL
All this and a semi-Beatles "reunion", too! (Hard to call it a "reunion" with only Paul and Ringo but still pretty cool.)
Yup, it's great to be reminded that there's The Beatles and then there's "everybody else". There is simply not another artist who tops them, solo or group, and that includes fucking Elvis.
Beatles 4ever.
