THE BEATLES ARE FOUR-EVER!
Probably being the biggest fan of The Beatles alive, my review is nothing short of extraordinary. These four lads from Liverpool were classic in every way - their suits and ties, their classic "first impression" made on Ed Sullivan - including the white stage with Ringo elevated, and their instruments - Pauls Hofner violin bass guitar, John's Rickenbacker rhythm guitar, George's Gretsch lead guitar and Ringo's Ludwig jazz drum kit. Folks - it has been done, and never will be done THAT CLASSIC again! This box set takes you from the exciting opening of "It Won't Be Long" and "I Saw Her Standing There" to the stellar dreamscape of John Lennon on "This Boy," George on "Don't Bother Me," Paul on "Here, There and Everywhere," and Ringo doing his country-rocking "lonely-man" thing with "Act Naturally." It is 13 albums that were released in America only - from "Meet The Beatles" in 1964 to "Hey Jude or "The Beatles Again" in 1970. This is where the mold was broken, but the product would last four-ever! They are the only group to have sold over one billion records, and they were gifted enough to make every song a "greatest hit." They are the only group ever to hold the top five spots on Billboard (during the week of April 4, 1964) with "Can't Buy Me Love," "Twist and Shout," "She Loves You," "I Want To Hold Your Hand," and "Please Please Me" - in that exact order. So, folks, you won't be disappointed in any way possible with The Beatles. They always were, and always will be, the prototype for the revolution of popular music They are, after all, The Beatles. You've got your ticket - now enjoy the ride! Dr. Paul A. Racioppi, Jr., Brooklyn, New York, Tuesday, May 17, 2016.
