Quoted for truth.

They're arguably the most famous rock band of all time. I'm quite familiar with their music, as is everyone else who posts here, and their status as "radical" or "experimental" is extremely overstated. Listen to Strange Strings by Sun Ra—released the same year as Sgt. Pepper—and then see how experimental the Beatles sound.
Incredible guy, certainly has a talent for experimental jazz fusion.
