Trying to find topics here that will interest everyone so here's an oldie but a goody that I ran with a few years back that some you may have missed........ This is mostly for the depend wearing gum smacking geritol old farts on this board. Oh wait, that would be pretty much everyone on here.... Maryann or Ginger? Beatles or Rolling stones? Munsters or Adams Family? Bewitched or I Dream of Jeannie? Temptations or 4 tops? Bonanza or Gunsmoke? Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin? Okay for me it was................ Maryann. I just loved the little cut off shorts. Beatles Munsters Bewitched. There was just something about Elizabeth Mongomery 4 tops. Though you couldn't go wrong with either one. Bonanza. But Gunsmoke was okay too. Dean Martin.
Mary Ann Beatles Adams Family I Dream Of Jeannie 4 Tops Gunsmoke (tough call) Martin (he was cooler but Sinatra had the voice)
Maryann or Ginger? Ginger Beatles or Rolling stones? Beatles Munsters or Adams Family? Munsters Bewitched or I Dream of Jeannie? Barbara Eden Temptations or 4 tops? 4 Tops Bonanza or Gunsmoke? Gunsmoke Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin? Sinatra
...I went with Dean Martin because the Dean Martin Show was a classic...as were the Dean Martin Roasts.
Same reason here & I have all of them. Plus you're right, he was much cooler. And from what I hear very approachable while Sinatra was pretty much a dick.
Does being 36 make me one of "the depend wearing gum smacking geritol old farts on this board"? in any case: Ginger Don't like the Beatles or the Rolling Stones, but if I had to pick one it'd be the Stones Munsters and Adams family are WAY before my time, but I'll say Munsters... Bewitched or I Dream of Jeannie -> see above... but I'll say Bewitched Temptations/4 Tops -> neither... Bonaza/Gunsmoke -> neither... Sinatra
Steve just for the hell of it, one of these days just put on the Sgt pepper soundtrack by the Beatles. Or even the Rubber soul album. I guarantee you that you'll become a fan.
I don't know... I've always been a fan of heavier stuff (Metallica, Pantera, etc.) I do like classic rock too though... now if this question had been Beatles or Led Zeppelin, totally different answer... so Since Stones are classic Rock and Beatles are more classic than classic rock, that is why I aired on the side of the Stones...
...the Beatles are the ones who really got and roll going...without them, rock and roll may never have morphed the same way and become what it is today...and we may never have even heard of the Stones and Zeppelin, not to mention so many other bands and artists.
that may be true... just too, dare I say it, Justin Bieber for me... I understand and respect what they did for music... just could never get into them...
^^^...lol...and will someone PLEASE explain to me how the hell some people have been duped into believing Miley-fucking-Cyrus is both good looking and talented ? ...and Hammer, you really had to experience the 60's to understand them and convince yourself that they actually happened.
I really want to believe that just once more in my lifetime the actual art of SINGING makes a comeback. I'm truly amazed how much money is being paid to no talent slutty bimbos like Miley Syphilis and Brittany Spears. Not to mention all the rappers who have made reciting really bad poetry into a art. How talking became a talent I'll never understand. I guess I just miss the days when talent required actual SINGING like Larry Chance, Johnny Maestro, Jerry Vale, Gary Puckett, Jay Black, Roy Orbison & many others. As far as the Beatles, not to long ago I was down loading some music & burning some CDs, putting together the greatest hits of..........well many. My point here is that with groups like the Animals, Turtle, Monkees, Dave Clark five, Beach Boys etc, It only took 1 CD. Others like Elvis Presley, Neil Diamond, Chicago, Elton John, Billy Joel & the Stones it filled up 2 CDs. With the Beatles it took 6 CDs. And the most amazing part is that they were only around for 7 years.
Rick I think you are showing your age when it comes to modern music. I am sure that parents and grandparents back in the 60's looked at the Beatles with their mop hair and thought that they were a disgrace, just as some though Elvis and his swinging hips were pure evil. Although I will agree today's music takes less talent then in the past but to say they are talentless is not true. If that was the case anyone would be able to pop off lyrics with a good beat.
