Yes they do! It's quite amazing that it's been over 50 years since Sgt Pepper came out and they are still relevant...
Here is Paul stoned out of his mind... lol....

That's how you know you've done good, Rokkerr. 50 years later, what you've done is still relevant.
It's impossible to name a favorite. There is just so much that is a "favorite." Thankfully, Paul, and to a lesser degree, Ringo, keeps the Beatles music in the spotlight. But I believe one of my favorite concerts is "Paul McCartney Live in Red Square." When you see the joy that those folks feel, you can't help but be moved by all the good feelings. If you can, download it and watch it on your TV (I use Chromecast.) If you love the Beatles, it's well worth a hour and 40 minutes of your time.

Sadly, I have only ever been able to see Macca and Ringo live.
Paul McCartney in Millenium Stadium in Cardiff and he was superb. Two highlights - Live & let Die (his is the only version worth listening to) with pyrotechnics, and Hey Jude where he ended up with 20,000 backing singers for the chorus - great concert.
Ringo, on the other hand is bonkers - He does a thing called Ringo Starr's All Star band - remember Edgar Winter and Rick Dillinger were with him. The band were really good and did their own solo bits. He was not worth the admission price. As was once said (by John Lennon I think) he was only the second best drummer in the Beatles.

Here was certainly a sin worth sinning and I applied myself with characteristic vigour to its practice

Somewhere back there, someone made a lyrics cover of "Paperback Writer." Whoever did the lyrics did a great job while the song played along in the background. So I learned the words to "Paperback Writer" from listening to this version.
