An ironic comment coming from someone who hasn't provided any "proof" to back up his own claims. But I wouldn't expect any such links when we're talking about people as well known as The Beatles, Phil Spector and Buddy Holly. Who needs them? You can safely, and rightly, assume that I'm familiar enough with the Beatles catalog to not need links to their songs to discuss them. By the same token, I can assume that anyone who presents themselves as an authority on the popular music of the 50s and 60s is knowledgeable enough about legends like Buddy Holly and Phil Spector to talk about them intelligently, right?

And I've demonstrated that even that unexciting claim is on very shaky ground.
