I agree about the early Beatles, and I like that stuff to be sure. But I was just wondering what made it a turning point. There was certainly plenty of schlock before the Beatles, and certainly some fine pop music afterwards.

Like poetry, song lyrics have become less easy to understand. Sometimes, the obscurity is an attempt at sounding profound, and sometimes it is the real thing. But, as with music, it often takes a period of years to really know for sure what will have enduring value.
