Being a big, big Beatles fan, like others here too, there isn't an album of theirs that I dislike. They are all sublime, with the exception being - should've been an EP - Yellow Submarine.


I actually voted for Revolver. Over recent years it has seemingly stolen the mantle of 'Greatest Beatles Album' from Abbey Road and there was a time when Sgt Pepper was considered their finest achievement as well, remember. It took me a while to warm to Revolver though; I found it to be a little downbeat in comparison to earlier works, yet its greatness does shine through with repeated listening. Like Abbey Road, it’s a great McCartney album. Great bass playing along with two of his very finest delicate ballads, For No One and the lovely, Here There And Everywhere. What an album.

Keep the votes coming!

My vote was for "The Beatles" (white album) I heard it on peyote and it was like being in heaven the whole albunm is great even the commercial stuff like Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da; this album is the Beatles at his most creative and innovative period

However I love all their albums from Revolver to Let it Be (Abbey Road was their last recording but saw the light of day before Let it Be)

Then I just was into Lennon

Tell us how you REALLY feel, MrPleasant....

" After John Lennon got shot in the 80's, I went out & bought a lot of Beatles albums that I had in the 60's, that were worn out, I picked Sgt. Pepper.. "


Getting shot in the back four times RIGHT in front of your apartment and then having to crawl up the stairs and ask for help is NO friggin way to leave this orb .


No Friggin Way !


On a much brighter note , Paul is now singing Lennon's songs in concert .


*** YES !!!! ***

Have any of you heard the AMAZING remasters of The Beatles entire catalog by Purple Chick? You can go to Demonoid and enter The Beatles Purple Chick in the search engine. The stereo remaster of the White Album is my favorite at the moment...its on 12CD's featuring both the stereo and mono mixes, demo's, sessions, video mixes...all kinds of stuff!

gazza...just curious.

what off the white album would you classify as "filler"?

Wild Honey Pie, Don't Pass Me By, Why Don't We Do It In The Road, Honey Pie, Rocky Racoon, Piggies, I Will, The Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill.

The above mentioned tracks are in my opinion, absoloute 100% filler. Take them away, and you are still left with a very long LP. In fact, to come out with a perfect record, there are a few others I personally, could do with out.

The genuine classics on the record, in my opinon, are...

Back In The USSR, Dear Prudance, Glass Onion, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness Is A Warm Gun, Martha My Dear, I'm So Tired, Blackbird, Julia, Birthday, Yer Blues, Mother Natures Son, Everybody's Got Something To Hide..., Sexy Sadie, Helter Skelter and Cry Baby Cry.

Now thats a killer 16 track album, no?

Wild Honey Pie
Why Dont We Do It In the Road
Long long long
Everybodys got something to hide except for me and my monkey
Cry Baby Cry
Savoy Truffle
Honey Pie


Some of those songs arent bad by the standards of 95% of artists, but had they been recorded for any other Beatles album to that point, I'd have been surprised if they would have been included.

I know some of them are "half songs" - which is something they also used on side 2 of Abbey Road, but the ones on that album were far more effective.

Well, I don't think "I Will" is filler. And I would have to add "Savoy Truffle" to your revised CD list!

Many Years from Now, Many many years, I tell you People will listen to Revolution#9 and say these guys were well ahead of there time, John Lenon and Yes Yoko Ono. It is a masterpiece, yet to be fully appreciated. IMO.
