...whole place went up for grabs. Some 2,000 hooky-playing, caterwauling teenagers stomped, whistled, screamed, sang or just plain fainted while the plane slowly disgorged 105 passengers, 11 crew members and four British Beetles. Oops, Beatles. On their first U.S. tour, the mop-topped, top pop wailers, John Lennon, 23, George Harrison, 21, Paul McCartney, 21, and Ringo Starr, 23, grinned amiably at the whole mad display. What was their secret? "A good press agent," chirped Ringo. (They have...
...times, the Beatles resemblance becomes almost too much to handle. "We'll Come to Be" sounds like it's a lost track from Rubber Soul and "Coda" is right off Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts' Club Band. Lead singer Schneider's voice is eerily like a combination of Lennon and McCartney. Songs like "Find Our Way" use muted horn and string parts a la Beatles classics such as "Got to Get You Into My Life." Let us not forget that Apple was the name of the Beatles' record company. Coincidence? You make the call. But the Beatles aren...
...course, no matter what the Beatles sang about, they always sang like they meant it--a statement that the Apples In Stereo can't claim. Clever lyrics are hurt as often as helped from Schneider's laid back attitude. Imagine Lennon and McCartney singing while strung out on acid and mescaline, and you get the idea. Too often, instead of sounding cool, Schneider simply sounds anemic, like his heart beats at about the half the rate of a normal person. When he and his fellow co-vocalists really lay into a song, like the catchy "We'll Come...
Alas, the 75-minute work contains no trace whatsoever of the indelible tunes and crisp discipline that marked McCartney's collaborations with John Lennon. But then McCartney's post-Abbey Road pop output has also been notable mainly for its vacuity. The cash flow produced by such perennials as Yesterday (recorded to date by more than 2,200 artists) ensures that Sir Paul's great-grandchildren will never wonder where their next BMW is coming from, but it has also relieved him of the need to make new music vital enough to seize and hold the attention of contemporary listeners...
