As talented as insubstantial musician makes little sense
Recognizing that he was talented is perfectly compatible with the fact that his music was bland for my taste.

Say what you like about his collaborations with McCartney but they're not bland. And apart from imagine the other song of his I've heard quite frequently - often covered by eg the Wolfe Tones - Sunday bloody Sunday certainly isn't bland
Nice. The only solo career that I find certainly attractive and exciting is Harrison's, but I respect that you love John
Harrison was the best, I adore him, but Lennon wasn't bad either. Not as nice, or as interesting, as Harrison, but still better than McCartney.

I don't love any of the Beatles with the possible exception of Pete

No indeed being as he was killed in the sixties
I do not know that. I am not a historian
I grudgingly acknowledge he had some talent as a song writer, but I find him excruciatingly irritating and hard to praise beyond that. Plus he wrote some utter dross in amongst the gems, of course.

You don't need to rifle through the history books to know he was killed and a poor substitute replaced him
I don `t believe it xd

Yeh I don't know why I said Sutcliffe.
Thought it was all for the best

I assumed it was deliberate, but if you're wondering why your brain did that, it's because there's another fifth Beatle called Stu Sutcliffe.Yeh I don't know why I said Sutcliffe.
Anyway, I'm off to listen to some Dennis Nilsson albums.
