If i had to pick, I'd say John. But I was never the world's biggest Beatle's fan (I know, I know, that's some sort of deformity, but I think their music was a bit too cotton candy, even the 'edgy' stuff)
John was my favorite, but having a 12 year old sister in 1964, I learned to love them all. John was the only one I really followed after they broke up though.
Matt, I can't believe you would think for I wouldn't know a supergroup created by Eric Idle! Can't Buy Me Lunch? Brilliant! All You Need is Cash? Brilliant-er!
(Did you know that Eric Idle and George Harrison were good friends, and George even has a cameo in All You Need is Cash?)
This sounds apocryphal but it really happened to me when I was teaching Freshman Comp in the '80s. I mentioned the Beatles, and the kids asked what that was. Then one kid quips, "Oh! Wasn't that the band McCartney was with before Wings?"
Thanks for stopping by! Answer any question you like, however you like. Hopefully we'll learn a little bit about ourselves and a lot about each other. Happy answering!

I have to admit I had a major crush on John Lennon

I prefer Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin myself.

I was a major John fan when I was younger, but lately I've cultivated a real appreciation for George. His music is just so happy.
Never was a huge Beatles fan.
But if forced to pick one at gunpoint, I'd pick Paul.
Not a big Beatles fan, more of a Rutles fan(bonus points if you know who they are)

'Let It Rut' was one of my favorite all times albums.
