"The reason I like the Beatles so much is that to me they really were an Elizabethan music group. Their melodies, their harmonies — so much of it was 500 years of music coming home, but this time with echoes of the blues and rock & roll with which they grew up. They couldn’t escape the expressive modalities of their own traditions, and whether they knew it or not, it’s all there in the Lennon-McCartney songs.
"But when I listen to those tunes today, what I am constantly hearing is Shakespearean music and songs — music that comes from the Elizabethan court."
