"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, 2009-09-08
