True talent survives even bad publicity shots.
(The Beatles: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr)
And boy did they have some doozies!

This isn’t as bad as the infamous dead babies photo with the Beatles. It was for an album to called ‘Casualties’ but they wisely changed it.
WRONG! It was the Yesterday And Today album cover, better known as “The Butcher Cover”. And they weren’t babies, they were dolls.
BTW, Casualties was a bootleg (illegal) album put out in 1980. Here are some interesting facts about that “album”:
Titled Casualties, this record was first issued as a picture disc and like its predecessor, also sported a fictitious Capitol Records catalog number (SEAX 11950). The front of the record featured the full, uncropped “Butcher Cover” photo Randall Davis had wanted to use as the Rarities cover. On the back were the track listings with detailed notes about each song, plus rare black-and-white photos of the Beatles, supposedly from Capitol Records’ files.
Two of the tracks on this album are “outfakes” – The included “long version” of I’ll Cry Instead is a fake. The original mono “long” mix was composed of two different sections. On the Casualties cut, the first verse of the stereo version has just been spliced into the middle to make it appear like the long version. On Her Majesty, apparently the “final chord” was taken from a bootleg recording and added on. Since the final chord does not appear with Her Majesty on the existing master tape, the version on Casualties is definitely bogus. (HM was spliced out of the middle of the Get Back album, where it lost the chord. With a 20 second leader, it was added onto the tail end of Abbey Road.).
I dont know you Ivan the Floydist BUT I LOVE YOU. haha. Your so smart(: Go Beatles
too true
What the…there can be only one Rando!!
True talent my ass!!!!
Oh, let me guess…a Jonas Brothers fan. Fu(kwit.
haha awesome :d
no he’s/she’s Probably heard of the small faces, the kinks, james brown, pink floyd and the who, bands that were not spoon-fed and looked and sounded cool at the time
I wouldn’t call the Beatles “spoon-fed” though.
well they had alot of support while other bands didn’t. but i would agree that they did play a large part in the revolution of rock, and making music sound good and LOUD, lol
They had talent for sure. It was the idea that they somehow invented rock and roll that bothers me. They weren’t new. They were just the first one’s to come to the U.S.
they didnt invent rock’n'roll and nobody really claims that they did – seing as their inspiration was the american rock’n'roll heroes of the 50ies.
people say that they invented pop. i dont know if that’s true but they sure as hell had talent!
Yep some – nowhere near as much as they’re given credit for.
If you don’t think the Beatles have talent, then you quite clearly are either a complete fvcktard, or are dead. Yes, I’m being serious.
Budge up, TAR, make some room on that battleline for me!
Hope I’m still around in 40 years time to see if any of the big hitters from this era are still being talked about – because I’ll stake my pension on it that the Beatles will still be big!
So does nontalent unfortunately.
One of these is not like the others…
To be perfectly honest, I don’t like the Beatles.
Good for you. Now go away.
Can’t stand them either. Nor Elvis.
What exactly is wrong with you?
Then you don’t like music. That’s so sad.
Bull. The Beatles were overrated. They were the boy band of the ’60s. Sure they had some talent, moreso than modern boybands, but please, with the exception of George, their musical ability was just on par with plenty of their contemporaries.
I want to have your babies. ive been saying the same thing for ages and all i get in return is “shut up! theyre the reason for what you have now! Worship them”. I getting a shirt specially made this christmas that says f*ck the beatles.
Well, I’ll give you that, but that’s a reflection of just how much better the chart music scene was in the 1960s than it is now, rather than anything that makes the Beetles bad.
are you trying to tell us that Paul and John were not good songwriters?? They all had beautiful voices and a load of talent when it came to their instruments (except Ringo, sorry, its true)
Here’s a challenge for those who think the Beatles are overrated: spend three weeks listening to nothing – absolutely NOTHING — except the Billboard Top 40 of 1961-1962 (and no fair throwing in the occasional golden oldie like Carl Perkins or Jerry Lee Lewis). Then watch a couple of really good documentaries on the Cuban Missile crisis and the assasination of JFK. Then watch the Beatles’ appearances on the Ed Sullivan show. If you don’t understand then why they caused such a sensation, you never will.
If you go through the Beatles’ catalogue in chronological order, you will find that they were groundbreakers in most of the directions R&R took during the 60′s. Everyone, including the Stones, imitated them. Almost all rock bands today are still imitating them because they were so innovative. The reason they sound old hat now is because we’ve been listening to their imitators for 40 years.
Thank you!
LOL! Your avatar fits your comment so well!
@name and Anne-and pray tell…and just who do you prefer? I’m curious.
i cant see a problem with someone not liking the beatles. fair enough. i dont like elvis that much. or REM. or U2.
it’s really up to each individual what music they are into.
PAUL! I love you!!!!!
Where’s the LOL?
i don t get this whole springs thing. what were they getting at?
why are they posing with springs?!
This was one of four pics on the cover of “Beatles ’65.” Each pic represented a seaon of the year. Which season do you suppose is represented by springs, and a twig?
the beatles suck
Correction: Ringo sucks. The Beatles are awesome!!
ringo doesnt suck. why are you saying that ringo sucks? he’s the drummer. he’s not meant to sing.
Agreed. Ringo was definitely overshadowed by the talent of John, Paul, and George. He wasn’t meant to sing, though he sang “Good Night” on the White Album beautifully. Like a friend of mine says, Ringo brought balls to the group that didn’t exist when Pete Best was drumming.
well said. thank you.
Wrong the only reason Ringo got into the band is because his mother owned a nightclub. Pete Best was a far better drummer than Ringo. That is until the other Beatles stabbed him in the back.
Um, yeah. Pete Best’s mom owned the night club. Ringo got in because he was the best drummer in Liverpool.
LOLZ You pwned him Sandy.
The Beatles are amazing
Why does John get a twig, and the rest have spring thingies?
coz john is special.
they look so uninterested
and to those who don’t like the beatles,
if it weren’t for them, you wouldn’t watch, listen, or do what you are doing today, they influenced more than you know.
i guess they just couldnt get excited about holding… springs.
Most of the stuff on TV, in theatres, and on the radio today is pure crap. So what exactly are you saying?
Everyone loves a Slinkie!
… Except John.
Well played.
Three springs and a twig. John was a twig hugger.
Ringo’s springo is the biggest.
Nicely done.
I’m sorry, I meant I don’t like the Beatles music. I have nothing against the Beatles. And I know the Beatles influenced a lot. I appreciate that. I just don’t really like their music. And brak, I know that “I’m curious” means “anything you post I’m going to make fun of”. So no.
what’s _really_ curious is the idea that your personal music tastes would be of the slightest interest to a reader of the comment thread on a picture of the musicians whose music you don’t like.
So now we cant post our opinions unless theyre positive and for whatever theyre being posted on? No, that doesnt violate freedom of speech at all.
“John Lennon once said ‘Im a musician; you give me a twig of asparagus, and I’ll try to make music out of it.’ So I look at you and I ask myself ‘what could I use you for?’ .”
I LOVE YOU GEORGE!
but yes. the picture is craptastic…
Soooooo…what exactly is going on here?
I’m not sure Amazing Rando. I think these are the Jonas Brothers?
The Reply button. Know it. Use it. And FU(K NO these ain’t the Jonas Retards!
it’s not talent, it’s genius. there’s adifference. like batman’s genius vs. superman’s talent.
Half of them are dead, so this may have been a poor choice of words.
I admit the springs are looking good, but to call them talented seems a tad over the top.
talent? where? those springs?
True talent: no instruments except three slinkys and a piece of asparagus, yet they still managed to record enough music for trolls to fight over for 59 comments…
That’s wheat, not asparagus.
what I don’t understand is, why non beatles fans decide to trash a column of uplifting fan comments. People can be fans of whatever they want but please don’t ruin it for everyone else. It makes being a fan of someting rather difficult.
ahaha that’s kinda hilarious xD
In Ringo’s defense: Steve Gorman of The Black Crowes, Dave Grohl of Nirvana, Orri Páll Dýrason of Sigur Rós,[54][55][56] Max Weinberg of the E Street Band, Danny Carey of Tool, Liberty DeVitto of Billy Joel’s band, Nicko McBrain of Iron Maiden, Eric Carr of Kiss, Phil Rudd of AC/DC, Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater, Pedro Andreu of Heroes del Silencio and others. This is a list of drummers that list Ringo as an influence.
