"It is not easy to categorize the Beatles' music; more than
any other group, their sound can be described as 'Beatlesque.'
It's akin to a combination of Badfinger, Oasis, Corner Shop, and
every other rock band that's ever existed. [...] Even the most
casual consumers will be overwhelmed by the level of invention
and the degree of change displayed over their scant eight-year
recording career, a span complicated by McCartney's tragic 1966
death and the 1968 addition of Lennon's wife Yoko Ono, a woman so
beloved by the band that they requested her physical presence in
the studio during the making of Let It Be." -- Chuck
Klosterman, from
a "review" of the recent boxed set of remastered Beatles albums,
