Yesterday was the song of my adolescence. I must have sung it to myself more than any other. Something about the live gigs too.. a spotlight on Paul, the epicenter of music's universe unfolding, and his message was only vanquish.

I know a guy that is a retired sound engineer that was pretty friendly with Lennon post Beatles era when John was spending a lot of time in Los Angeles... he's got some stories.

^^^Yup, I think the two 1990's releases are quite underrated. Plus, I really like the videos.

I was going to put this up in the “under appreciated” thread with particular regard to the vocals of Jeff Lynne, not that I don’t appreciate the other performers (especially Prince and his anti-gravity guitar)

There is a reasonable argument that George was only the third most talented of the Beatles, come on lads that is just taking the piss.

One of the guys I worked with was determined to bring his som up the right way. When his son was four he said “ I have just introduced him to the White Album, I think that I will wait until he is five before starting him on Zeppelin”

Something I heard recently which blew me away was that none of the band members had reached age 30 when they broke up. It's insane the volume and quality of work produced at such a young age.

Don't most bands do their best stuff in their 20s?

yeah, I thought they all did. I'm trying to think of some bands that formed, or peaked, post 30.

Hound Dog and the House Rockers (to name just one):

Crying shame you didn't think of The Hound right away. Bad Boy Phat.
