saying that seriously?  yes- the beatles got all philosophical and deep and

in that way were controversial.  but their SOUND was never really hard (a few
songs does not make a band hard).   >>

Back in the 60's those songs I mentioned were considered "Hard Rock".   At 
least they were in the city where I grew up.  I didn't say that the Beatles 
were a Hard Rock band.  They were able to mix so called Hard Rock songs in 
with great soft rock songs.
