Isnt it time to get a good bass player in this group??
Or better yet...quit the teasing and give us the threatles!
We wont hold anything sub par against the 3!
Will we??

Here Comes the Sun was the Threatles as were several Abbey Road tracks.
Substandard? not likely .

I should think that Macca would make a great Wilbury but I wouldn't hold my breath. Nice thought though.

Ahh..Mark...dear boy...We are all fans and would love any "sound" that we can get our hands on, but to think that they can make the same sounds now that they did in 1969 seems like only a hope!
Heres a thought...Which tunes would you love to see the Threatles redo-I am sure this is hypothetical!? I would have loved to see them break into I wanna hold your hand while they were doing Let It Be!

What is interesting, cr818, is that the possibility does exist (if only remote) that the Threatles could release something special in the future. I'm with you, I would accept anything released by them in a heart beat. I would, however, like it to be new material.

Peter, I think the whole noun called "The Beatles" should probably stay in the 60's. John is currently on holiday!
But a George/Paul recording might be nice!

I don't remember the group the "Threatles". Guys...c'mon just let it go. The Beatles are done. We are going to be subject to material churned out over and over again. And you know what...that's ok. Lets not ruin a good thing by trying to bring it back. You can't go home again. Let's be thankful and move on. And let them move on. I'm happy looking forward to solo stuff. Besides I believe we can talk about their RIC's forever anyway. It's all good!

Brian, I agree...you can't go back!
So lets see if we can get the "Threatles" to give us some new studio work! As an aside...I happened to be on a boat cruise in the early 80's and Billy Joel was on the boat. He played for an hour one night and it was great! Guess what he played? BEATLES... only Beatles! He should team with Paul and see what comes out! They both have places in the Hamptons!

.. a great musician passes getting to heaven's door, already awaited by St. Peter saying : nice to have you here joining our all time all star band, but the only problem is : God has a girlfriend and she is the singer !
