Yoko is a Beatle? In what sense classical? Paul was the only self-sufficient composer in the band, as the post-1970 solo albums by all the 4 members demonstrated. If by classical you mean "with inclination towards classical music", once again, Paul is the only ex-Beatle has composed classical music, albeit he isn't Saint-Saens or Scriabine.

I agree, Paul. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Paul. Eleanor Rigby makes clear that he has some skill in counterpoint. -------------

I think George. Martin. Much more beatle than Yoko (what she's doing in these polls?) ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour) |
