Pastor Alms on the Beatles
Interestingly they stopped being hip around 1974, around the time their contract as the Beatles was expiring anyway.

Also, a good word for Sir George Martin, from the older, better generation and the quintessential English gentleman, without whom the albums wouldn’t have been nearly as good. The fifth Beatle, a title he never claims for himself.

Long story short I’d trade their music and their charm for the ’50s back.

Lastly, all their movies stink except Yellow Submarine which wasn’t really them.
