You are a guitarist and therefore you have a unique perspective on what is and what isn’t excellent musicianship… I’m glad you pointed out the rhythm on All My Lovin’ because even though it’s recognized widely as a great song, I don’t think most people have any idea how difficult that riff is the way John plays that rhythm guitar… I saw an interview where Paul pointed that out that he had written the song and felt good about it, but John put that extra touch that made it so unique…. I think this is why they are The Beatles, because even though individually, they are great musical artist it’s their combined efforts and talents that make them so incredibly unique. When you think that these two young guys in the little town of Liverpool decided that they’d write songs together and right from the beginning, decided they’d give each song their mutual credit, Lennon and McCartney, this is what gave them such enduring power… they realize that just the slightest touch, just playing the song off each other and getting a wink or a nod was just as important as sitting down and composing versus together. There are a lot of great musical groups in the 60’s 70’s and even now, but there will never be another phenomenon as we experienced it first hand called The Beatles.
