Week 3

Michael,

Great Info in the First Paragraph! Wish I did more research like that, lazy me. It is amazing the contrast between their earlier albums and then Revolver. Isn’t it amazing how we delve into what we are told not to do and how they influence us? We are always told not to do drugs, but it is amazing how much it influenced The Beatles. It amuses me that you can find influence anywhere. Interesting perspective on the opening of Revolver, I like how you put it that The Beatles wanted to invite the listeners into the studio. I really like the part about the Dalai Lama, that’s awesomely funny. Great Job!

Week 2

Victor, good choice on the background of the band, when I did my Kraftwerk post, I did not think to include background of the band, good idea on picking that up! Interesting that Kraftwerk translates into power station, I should of picked up on that during my research.  Good idea to point out that they had themes to their albums, since it was really a part of who made them who they were. I like your idea in your last paragraph about Eno and Bowie rushing out to try and be like them. This can definitely be seen in history, since they tried to grab a part of what they believed was a growing scene.
