    This was inspired by the Beates VS. Wings poll. I think comparing Wings (or any post-Beatles stuff) to the Beatles is a bit unfair though, as the Beatles will pretty much always win. I thought this would make for a more fair comparison.

    So after the Beatles broke up and went their seperate ways, who produced the music closest to your liking?

    Ringo Starr
    George Harrison. All Things Must Pass is by far the best post-Beatles solo album, and The Travelling Wilburys were a lot of fun.

    I just voted for all of them - think there might be a problem with your poll.

    In reality i'd go for "none of the above" - there's maybe 20 songs between the 4 of them that I would consider genuinely "great".

    George Harrison
    I was always a Lennon fan and some of his solo stuff was good but McCartneys stuff with wings was more upbeat and cheerful (most of the time ) .I also like Harrisons stuff, specialy with the wilburys .Ringos 'photograph' was a decent enough song but i am going for McCartney on the strenght of his singing voice and long back catalogue .

    No, I did that on purpose just in case some people didn't have a single favourite.

    Ringo. I never cared much for the Beatles but loved Thomas the Tank Engine.

    I also really want him to be last man standing as well. In fact, I have money on the pirate's ex husband being next in the mortal coil shuffling queue.
