Guitar Hero Aerosmith

[TheKiltedWonder]

Oh man, I can't wait for Guitar Hero 4, but as for Beatles only game, i'd hate that, for I really don't like the Beatles. Sorry if I've just offended anyone, but they just don't do it for me.

I'm not offended; just curious: what Beatles songs do you know? I feel that most people who dismiss them think of them as the four guys in suits and forget about all the music they made after "Help!" etc. Their body of work is so diverse, I figure everyone must like at least one of their songs...

Maybe Helter Skelter's right for you?

I mena I've heard many Beatles songs, maybe not as many as others have, b/c I've never been a fan. But I just can't get into their music. I don't think it revolutionized rock n roll as much as everyone claims. I mean so many other bands have made Rock what it is without the Beatles help. Plus I can't stand John Lennon, he was a drugged up moron. I still think Elvis Presley made rock n roll big, and that motown and blues influenced rock more than the Beatles. I love Elvis, the Temptations, Stevie Wonder, Jerry Lee Lewis "the Killer", and many others. Also, I think bands like the Rolling Stones were much more influential on the evolution of rock than the Beatles. The Beatles were huge, but I don't think they were that great in terms of a rock n roll band, maybe they popularized pop, but not rock.

I would strongly disagree with you regarding the Rolling Stones influence. Please don't get me wrong as I like the Rolling Stones, but their music has (to me) always been a continuation of the blues influenced rock of Chuck Berry and Bo Diddly (though some of their work shows a country influence ). In comparison The Beatles developed over time from a very similar begining to include a wide range of musical styles. Their later albums were pretty influencial on their contemporaries and later musicians

The Rolling Stones have some absolutely great songs but I really see them as carrying the torch of a classic blues based rock sound to the next generation instead of really changing or evolving that sound.

Just my thoughts
