In a deleted scene from Pulp Fiction, Uma Thurman’s character Mia posits that there are two kinds of people in the world, Elvis People and Beatles People. While it’s possible to be fans of both the King of Rock and Roll and the Fab Four, everybody likes one or the other more, and which you choose says something about who you are as a person. I tend to agree with her. However, it is also possible to start as one but become the other.
My mother was an Elvis fan, so growing up, I listened to my share of classic Elvis. “Jailhouse Rock” and “Return to Sender” were two of my earliest favorite songs I can remember. However, in high school, I was really introduced to The Beatles. This was thanks to a high school friend who was already a big fan when I met him, and The Beatles Anthology.
