For instance, were the Beatles on the cover of Rolling Stone or NME during the 70s? I'm sure they must have been but I can't believe it was anything like as often as they're on the cover of magazines nowadays. The four members were all getting on with their solo careers and music seemed far too preoccupied with disco, progressive, punk and the rest of it to refer back to them. The former Beatles weren't desperately keen to talk about it all because they felt they could put it behind them. <br /><br />It was only when John Lennon died in 1980 that the Great Revision began. It was only then that people thought "hang on, that was something really special and now it's gone for ever."David Hepworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05973053694541321308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38548109.post-47174363445019357282016-09-03T19:58:29.915+01:002016-09-03T19:58:29.915+01:00David I'm by no means arguing but is it really...David I'm by no means arguing but is it really true that 'their reputation was only at the beginning of its ascent' in the mid 1970s? I mean their reputation, whatever that means, was really pretty big by 1964 and kept on going from there to be stratospheric by 1967 at the latest, no? Did you run that one by Mark Lewisohn? If so of course I humbly withdraw all the above, KeithAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05061682822977144707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38548109.post-2901227560182238312016-09-03T11:03:18.715+01:002016-09-03T11:03:18.715+01:00You know what?

I vaguely recall "Beatax" being part of it.<br /><br />I also have the vaguest of recollections that Ken Dodd popped up at the beginning or the end.<br /><br />The whole thing is probably somewhere on YouTube.<br /><br />Other than that, as the jargonauts have it: Good Find!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493567800389632669noreply@blogger.com
