I was in my early 20s when the Beatles came on the scene. I was baffled. What was the fuss about? I liked classical music, opera and ballet, not uncouth, untrained youths who strummed guitars and couldn’t really sing. Loved the 60s clothes, and being tall and slim looked quite good in them, so it wasn’t that I was unaware of the times. I just thought the Beatles (and most pop) were rubbish.
Later, when I was living in Liverpool, I bought the Penny Lane/Strawberry Field EP, because I knew the places, so perhaps you Beatles fans will forgive me ?. Just putting another point of view.
