My Interest on The Beatles



My interest on The Beatles never really showed up until I was already in college. I accidentally tuned in on one TV channel where it featured The Beatles every noon time. The moment I saw them perform some of their timeless classics, I immediately became one of their diehard fans. From that moment on, I am a self-confessed "Beatlemaniac".

I started looking for records and the first Beatle record I got was their 20 Greatest Hits compilation which I really loved. I never thought that a 60s rock 'n roll band would sound very modern during the 90s. I compared them with the 90s band and The Beatles are really a yardstick of every modern rock group.

Then I started collecting their albums. I was not able to complete though due to budget constraints. I only bought cassette tapes since CD prices during the 90s is still too expensive for a college student.

I even went to every Beatles memorabilia shows just to see rare items and collectibles. I was not able to buy a single item though. Again, its because of the cost. Just seeing those rarities is already enough for me.

Up to this very day, nobody could ever replace The Beatles on top of my list of favorite artists. No way. BEATLES FOREVER!!!!!
