The last time the Beatles had a #1 hit was the year I was born. I never appreciated them growing up - "not hard enough." Hated the incessant radio play, the movies, the mysticism, the fact that it was my parent's music.
If pushed I would have said the White Album or Revolver was my "favorite" Beatles album.

Sitting here listening to Sgt. Peppers. I realized I know pretty much every word of every track - and it's a fucking great album.

Sometimes I just want to yank my brain out and ask it why??
