What is The Best Beatles Album of all time?
I'm sticking with the UK Studio releases for this poll as their
discography is a complete mess when factoring in all the other
worldwide releases.

Shocking, but I don't have their first 2 albums. I fully intend
to complete my collection....someday. It's ironic that I don't
have the one album that has one of my all time favorite Beatles
song from early in their career. Of course I'm talking about
Love Me Do, which is found on Please Please Me. The Harmonica
intro is just....awesome and so tasty on the ears. Who doesn't
love that? Like most people, I got my start with The Beatles by
way of Greatest Hits LP's and the first time I ever heard that
song was with that. But of course the biggest monster hit on
Please Please Me was none other than Twist and Shout.

A Hard Day's Night at #388
[/CENTER]
I'm a huge fan of The Beatles. But I'm more a fan of their stuff
later in their career where they really started to experiment
with recording techniques and evolving with their playing and
songwriting. Having said that, A Hard Day's Night is pure
vintage classic Beatles, that definitely marks the time of where
they were as a band and in their songwriting. This album was
release in conjunction with the movie of the same name. From the
title track to Can't Buy Me Love, you just can't go wrong.
I would have to disagree with Rolling Stones placement of this
album at #388. This was the album that launched them into a
whole other world and had the beginnings of what would define
their earlier songs. I do believe this album should rank in the
Top 100.

I'm gonna jump ahead here before your done... cause actually
I've just gone through most of the Beatles stuff in the last few
days.
For me, It's a real toss up between Sgt Pepper, which I played
the hell out way back when and it has some of the best songs to
sing too
and
Abbey Road, which has an amazing montage of songs put into one
long masterpiece "You Never Give Me Your Money", that I never
get tired of.
So [glow=red,2,300]Abbey Road[/glow] it is ;D

This is NOT a review

Just like the first 2 albums, this one for whatever reason just
slipped through the cracks and never made it into my clutches.
Definitely plan to pick this up eventually. Someday. Eight Days
A Week is their most well-known song from Beatles For Sale and a
personal favorite as well. Sick cover by the way. Classic.

[/CENTER]
Help! is not a perfect album. It has a few songs that I can do
without. But the songs that really work, are perfect in every
way. Of course the songs are the title track Help!, Ticket To
Ride and the one and only Yesterday. As always, I disagree with
Rolling Stone Magazine's spot for this one. I personally think
that A Hard Day's Night is a much better album than that of
Help! And yet, RS has this one charting higher than the other.
Eh?

Rubber Soul at #5
[/CENTER]
Rubber Soul. This is the turning point for the band as far as
expanding their songwriting as well as recording techniques and
instrument experimentations. Sitar anyone? This has one foot in
the past and one foot and two hands in the future of what's to
come. This is also the album that Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys
has said influenced him to make my all time favorite Beach Boys
album: Pet Sounds. I would agree with Rolling Stone Magazine
with it's placement...or pretty close to it. Definitely Top 10.
It's very hard to play Rubber Soul just one time through. It's
an impossibility. I have been playing this one half the day and
never get tired of it. Stand out songs include Drive My Car,
Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown), Nowhere Man, Michelle and
In My Life.
Fave Songs: All of them. But Norwegian Wood is tops IMO.
Cool cover too. Epic cover is more like it. Iconic.
Amazing album, but nowhere near as good as the stuff that's
coming after it.

Revolver at #3
[/CENTER]
Revolver to me is the true beginning of what The Beatles are all
about. From Taxman to Eleonor Rigby to Love You To to Yellow
Submarine to She Said She Said to Tomorrow Never Knows all
pushed the envelope of what the band could do, thus changing the
course of music history that's still being felt to this day. And
it only gets better from here on out. I remember the first time
I ever heard of Yellow Submarine as a kid and thinking it was
the dumbest, hokiest song I had ever heard. Over the years it's
just grown on me to the point where I just think its so f*cking
awesome now. Ringo ftw!! FYI, playing Yellow Submarine on The
Beatles Rock Band gives me a thrill that I just shouldn't be
getting from a game with so many other great songs on there.
I can agree with Rolling Stone's placement here. If not at #3,
then definitely Top 5. I have so many favorite albums that I'm
trying to keep them all in check of where each should go. I will
be playing this one for the rest of the night.
Fave Songs: Everyone of the songs to me is classic. But my fave
of the bunch is definitely Tomorrow Never Knows.
Sick sick sick cover. The art is just....too cool.
