– The Beatles sounded great when they were The Beatles. But there’s not a lot of roots in that music. I think they got carried away. Why not? If you’re the Beatles in the ’60s, you just get carried away – you forget what it is you wanted to do. You’re starting to do ‘Sgt Pepper’s…’. Some people think it’s a genius album, but I think it’s a mishmash of rubbish, kind of like [Rolling Stones album] ‘Satanic Majesties…’. If you can make a load of shit, so can we.
