John, Paul, Ringo, and that other guy.
at one point in time i was producing an album for a friend of mine. he's a nice enough guy, but the sort who would own a White Stripes album because it sounds "so retro", then not have anything in his collection pre-dating 1996. i, on the other hand, am a classic rock dj and i know and love that stuff. anyway, any attempt to give Mister Top 40 a musical education thus far has been met with closed-minded proclamations like "I HATE the Rolling Stones!" or "Neil Young has no talent.".

at any rate, one day he was playing a new guitar riff for me. i was digging it, and said "Hey, that's pretty good! would you be offended if i told you it sounded really George Harrison?"

"Nah," was his reply. "I don't even know who that is".

he was dead-serious, folks. i think my brain made an audible fizzling sound right then and there...
