Included a controversial leader (When John was at his most down to earth, he could be seriously thought provoking), a master of Pop songwriting (when Paul was on the mark which is most of the time), a classy guitarist (when George was not getting too much into the mystical stuff), and a Drummer with good humour who knew how to provide the solid backbeat (Well...Ringo was always Ringo!).

Gaga - Attention seeking acts that show her to be like a wanna-Be Madonna with Disposable music. Includes highly promoted gimmicks and slick and empty sounds that wastes some talent.
