Why can't people make good music without selling out?

And I believe in the "Do what thou whilst" idea as long as it isn't hurting anybody. What's wrong with that? Did I sell my soul also since I believe that? I don't think they did anything other than create good music and create a fan base.

As far as those "four lads" making all the music...they had as much or MORE help than any other artists in history in the creation of their albums. George Martin alone is responsible for much of the Beatles musical atmosphere. None of the Beatles can READ OR WRITE MUSIC. They had a hollywood level production to their albums which included teams of engineers working in multiple studios.

"Create a fan base" Sure - in the same way "Hannah Montana" created a fan base. By being chosen as an instrument of the elite then getting your image put on every product under the sun and sold to the public on the biggest television broadcasts at the time. Their was no "build up of fanbase". The Beatles arrived in America pre-sold as the well dressed charming lads everyone could love. They were sold and marketed to children with a thoroughness and zet that can only be compared to a hannah montana, new kids on the block, or the like. THEY WERE A BOY BAND.

What's wrong with "Do What THou Wilst" is that John is saying the beatles were direct followers of Aleister Crowley (who appears throughout the Beatles works, in different forms, and is pictured on the sgt pepper album cover twice). If you see no problems with the works of crowley and his prganizations I highly suggest you look into some of the things he and his bunch are responsible for.
