Anybody else hear how he credited George Harrison with Blackbird?
He might be referring to his guitar playing.
@@stevestorey1202 But Paul McCartney recorded this song as a Solo Performance during The White Album sessions.
He was probably thinking of Something
@@LiamNashMiller OK. I was just speculating.
@@conormurphy4328 Yeah but that was on a completely different Album. But I will say, Something is the Greatest song on Abbey Road, and might be the best song in their whole entire catalogue in my opinion.
I think the fact that an album with Let it Be, The Long And Winding Road, Get Back and Across the Universe ends up in C tier shows just how insanely impressive The Beatles’ discography is.
The long and winding road kinda sucks but yeah it's a fantastic album
@@TheCurtainLift What? That song is a poem
@@B.R.0101 not a very good one
Let It Be was kind of a let down considering the stuff Led Zeppelin had already been putting ot since 69'
The long and winding road is probably one of my least favourite songs by them, definitely the cheesiest and the most boring one
White album has lots of filler, but it also has 15 of their best songs ever. That’s why it’s my favorite
The filler is kinda what makes it special in my opinion, because it has so much variety
The filler is kinda what makes it special in my opinion, because it has so much variety
@@jj-if6it Yes. And the 'filler' was already better than what most bands were doing at the time. The White Album is a masterpiece from beginning to end in my opinion.
Mike, the B-side of Abbey Road is a Medley, a collection of short songs patched together in a big composition. It doesn't matter if they were unfinished pieces (probably were) or it was meant to be that way from the beginning. It's meant to be listened to as a whole, and some people (including me) consider this to be one song on its own. One of the finest compositions of all time.
Also the ending of that album ties in earlier melodies used in other songs on the album, it's my favorite, so far
Exactly, i adore the medley
This guy needs to check his Brian meds. Side two of Abbey Road is the best side of any album.
Paul McCartney referred to that section as 'The Long One' as they saw it as just one big song made by different ideas. I mean 'You never give me your money' is already a song made by three other songs
I feel this is the best of the Beatles, they saved their best for last. I feel that way even though I don’t like Because (I only like the acapella version) and Sun King.
This side is genius on their best album ever.
MMT is actually one of my absolute favorites, might be personal taste. I actually like to listen to this one just as much as their best (Revolver, Sgt Peppers, Abbey Road)
Great to see. I prefer MMT over Revolver and Sgt. Pepper. It's actually more experimental and consistent.
@@eliasswift2921 It really has some great tracks, The Fool on the Hill is probably one of my favorite Beatles songs. Still hard to top Revolver and Peppers in my book, Revolver because of the overall sound and harmonies on pretty much all of its songs (And your bird can sing is my fav), Sgt Pepper's because of its completeness and the journey it takes you on.
It feels like they capture a whole life, from the youth and drugs of the early tracks to the coming of peace in Within or without you to the end parts with When I'm 64. Then top it of with one of rock's greatest songs AFTER Sgt Pepper's have closed the show.
Yup one of my favorites. Tbh it is a 3-way tie between MMT Sgt Peppers and Rubber Soul.
For me, it’s a perfect album. I love every track and that calm psychedelic pop feel of the album is what I think of when I think of the Beatles.
mmt is their most underrated album imo. songs like penny lane, strawberry fields forever, and all you need is love, is them at their absolute best.
Gotta give it to them man, they invented progressive rock while one of their wives invented Black Metal
HAHAHAHAHA! Perfect
hahaha 😂
Patty Boyd invented Black Metal?
did The Beatles invent progressive rock??
OnO
Man..Hey Bulldog is definately as S-tier Beatles song in my opinion. I just found it so unique and catchy (and that bass line is frickin killer)
so underrated
I actually love the 2nd half of Abbey Road because it's a medley that takes the said half-baked ideas and turns them into an epic that might have been the first prog epic. It's essentially one giant song.
The medley is amazing! I think his problem is he needs everything to be neat and technical. It’s ART. It doesn’t need to be that way.
Yeah but each song on its own is fine imo, nothing super great but if you didnt listen to them all in one it makes no sense
@@rogeliorufin9204disagree
@@rogeliorufin9204 I completely disagree. You Never Give Me Your Money, Sun King, She Came in Through the Bathroom Window, Golden Slumbers and The End are all masterpieces as far as I'm concerned. And what about Because? I have no words to describe how much I think this song is beautiful and brilliant. One of their best ever.
Nice to see a Beatles fan who actually agrees with me on the White Album.
Also it would have been interesting to see you include the Hey Jude album. It had a lot of the singles on it that never had an album like Hey Jude, Lady Madonna, Ballad of John & Yoko, etc. Since most of those aren’t on their own albums I consider it a full Beatles album.
Yeah, but it's really a compilation album. Then there's red/blue/one....had to draw the line at Yellow Sub
@@BecomeTheKnight Understandable, but I would have personally had Hey Jude at the same level of compilation-ness as Yellow Submarine.
@@EmperorTigerstar I agree.
@@draetonalimoffatt8780 same
I for some reason started to like it a lot more when I got it on vinyl
She's leaving home really is an underrated song, message goes right to your heart not only because of personal experience
Beauuutttifffuuullll soonnnggg
Not talked about enough as a song.
definitely very underrated, always wondered why it was not talked about at all
Not acknowledging hey bulldog on yellow submarine is a crime, that song has such a phenomenal bass line
He honestly failed to acknowledge so many great songs, and was a bit vulgar and over the top for my taste. Also, I'm a total fanboy of The Beatles and I didn't like his trashing lol
@@Y-two-K literally
Yes, I was looking for this comment and if I didn't find it I was going to say this myself. It's one of Paul's coolest basslines. It's a great song overall. I also love Only a Northern Song and It's All Too Much. Also, the lyrics to All Together Now seem to be about everything and everyone existing as only one thing at the same time. I think that's what they were going for and that's deep for such a purposefully "silly" song, which is awesome. All things considered, I'm glad Yellow Submarine exists.
Hey Bulldog easily belongs to top 20-25 Beatles songs
I mean he said 3 songs were pretty bad in Yellow Submarine when there was 6 (excluding orchestral) 2 being prereleased and 1 being hey bulldog soooooooooo…. But yeah not even mentioning it is kinda dumb.
I now want to see a brutal death metal cover of Yesterday.
I think Kmac2021 can do that someday 😁😁
Love your take on their albums, I don’t agree with all your placements but so happy you also think Rubber Soul is slightly overlooked by Beatles fans as it’s my favourite and perfect for me
Hey Mike, just to correct you a little mate, Blackbird is a Paul McCartney song and is not written by George Harrison.
That said, I do agree on all your points on White Album (I think it could have been more coherent despite having a lot of masterpieces) and can understand why Abbey Road is not your favorite although I personally enjoy that album a lot.
You wanna talk about a great Harrison song, Taxman is one of his best.
@@TalonfromtheRC If I Needed Someone too.
he also said Beatlesmania when it's Beatlemania
@@TalonfromtheRC Something, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Here Comes the Sun, Taxman mate. George Harrison is just amazing.
@@TalonfromtheRC Paul did the solo on Taxman, too....
As a fellow Beatles Head, I have to respectfully disagree regarding the second half of Abbey Road (the medley). That medley is the single reason that puts Abbey Road at #1 for me over Rubber Soul (#2). I just think the creativity of combining those unfinished songs and the way they did it (credit George Martin mostly) is pure genius. I think the whole thing flows perfectly. Anyway, great vid as always brother
Brian Wilson is hands down the most underrated composer of the last century. Because he's associated with The Beach Boys, people discount his talent and accomplishments and push the narrative that he was just a sing along surf singer who got overwhelmed by The Beatles and their infinite talent and innovation.
The truth is, Brian was by himself. He was producer, writer, and performing. He was the sole creative lead of The Beach Boys in the 60's. And he still managed to create Pet Sounds, an album that completely swept up The Beatles under their feet and pushed them to build off of what Brian created. Despite this, The Beatles are often credited with things that Brian did. The fact that Brian by himself was a rival to The Beatles as an entire band plus their producer George Martin speaks volumes.
Pet Sounds was also inspired by Rubber Soul
Brian Wilson was an amazing composer and songwriter. The rest of the Beach Boys were ehh. Great vocal harmonies but Brian was the one who really upped their game creatively (if not commercially).
More Monkees wrote and performed on "Headquarters" than Beach Boys on "Pet Sounds".
Stop talking nonsense, if you'd said Ray Davies then you'd have a point. Also, have you heard of Tony Asher?
The Beach Boys’ post Pet Sounds albums are incredible. Sunflower, Holland, Surf’s Up and 20/20 deserve attention!
He is not underrated lmao
The medley being why Abbey Road doesn't make S tier really is the hottest of takes
Couldn’t be more wrong about abbey road side two. Look up George Martin on side two. Yes they were leftover unfinished songs but they flow together so well. Martin was trying to get them to do a mini rock opera.
And BECAUSE is an underrated melodic gem from Lennon almost on par with across the universe. S tier.
I very much disagree about the flow. I hear people say they flow amazing together. I've never thought so, even before I was into prog.
@@BecomeTheKnight start with polythene pam, they all flow together perfectly from there.
@@BecomeTheKnightmean mr mustard is the only meh song. Bathroom window, Never give me your money, polythene pam, Golden slumbers carry that weight and the end are all fantastic. Maxwell silver hammer is worse than all of those.
totally agree!
agree@@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek
You Never Give Me Your Money, Fool on the Hill, Happiness is a Warm Gun, Because, If I Needed Someone, and For No One all deserve a mention imo. Those are some great songs man.
You never give me your money has been stuck in my head for days 🤪
16:24 "Act Naturally" is actually a cover song. The original is by American country legend Buck Owens who popularized the Bakersfield sound and had 19 number one hits on the U.S. country chart. He also recorded a killer, live rendition of "Twist and Shout" after the Beatles released their version of "Act Naturally."
I listened to "Let It Be... Naked" and for me it's how Let It Be should've always sounded, especially The Long and Winding Road
The Beatles were the very first band I heavily obsessed over back when I first got into music at age 10 and 13 years later they're still one of my all-time favourite bands, and George Harrison is still one of my biggest guitar influences
Blackbird wasn't a George Harrison song..it was Paul McCartney
In before Mike realises that Blackbird was Paul, not George and that Ticket To Ride is about sex.
"Ticket To Ride" has long been theorized to be about hookers The Beatles experienced in Hamburg, who required a government health certification in order to ply their trade.
The aforementioned "ticket to ride", so to speak.
The Beatles were the first band I ever became obsessed with back when I was only around 9 or 10 years old. In some ways, it was like the perfect introduction to popular music for me. I remember listening to Abbey Road for the first time all the way through and being completely wowed the whole time. My mind was especially blown by the medley during the second half because at the time I had no idea an artist could make different songs flow into each other so seamlessly.
Abbey road had 9 great songs in a row. Because shows the brilliance of the Beatles harmonies. But far the best harmonic performance
Glad to see Revolver so high up. It's probably one of my favorite albums and Tomorrow Never Knows one of my favorite songs. Also, surprised you didn't mention things like Revolution 9 in White Album. Great video!
my ranking would be
1 Revolver
2.Sgt. pepper
3.Abbey road
4.Rubber soul
5.The beatles (White album)
6.Magical Mystery tours
7.Let it be (Naked)
8. Help
9.Hard day 's night
10.Please please me
11.With the beatles
12. Beatles for sale
S: Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper, White Album, Abbey Road
A: A Hard Days Night, Help!, Magical Mystery Tour
B: With The Beatles, Beatles For Sale, Let It Be, Please Please Me
C: Yellow Submarine
Don’t worry, this isn’t rage talking 😁
I hold “The White Album” in high regard because it’s the one album where everything about The Beatles is there in one album. In fact, I’m probably one of the few people who would say “Revolution 9” is the best thing The Beatles ever did, if for nothing else it brought the avant-garde to an even wider audience (much like how Switched-on Bach brought the synthesizer to a wide audience … same year).
But keep in mind this is coming from someone who respects The Beatles more than loves them. Wait until you see my Pink Floyd tier 😁
Kinda agree,i hate revolution 9 tho...but Piggies,Wild Honey Pie and weird songs like that, probably influenced Primus,Mr Bungle,those weird experimental rock bands ,and even avant Garde as you said...but i dont rank albums like that,i rank them for what they are from the songs
I think you are the only person who would say "Revolution 9 is the best thing the Beatles ever did". I just don't think it holds a drop of water beyond being a personal opinion. I'm going to guess your favourite Floyd album is umma gumma.
@@draetonalimoffatt8780 I do sincerely enjoy Ummagumma but it’s not S tier 😁
Couldnt agree more!!!!
Revolution 9 is awesome, but I don’t think it could be said to be the “best thing they ever did.” It does amaze me that they managed to make an accessible (?) musique concrete track, but there are several better songs even on the White Album.
Let it be has really grew on me, I also disliked the album for a long time. Highlights for me are Two of Us, Dig a Pony, Across the Universe, I've Got Feeling and Get Back
Although for me, Rubber Soul and Revolver are sister albums and I rate them both at the highest of Beatles' albums, I must say you really nailed it here.
Thank you, Mike!
Yeah, those top the list for me as well, with Girl and I'm Only Sleeping being my two favourite Beatles songs ever.
@Gustav Häggendal oh, Girl is painfully beautiful and the reversed guitar in I'm Only Sleeping is genius stuff.
I've always felt The White Album should have been a single album. "Wild Honey Pie" and "Revolution 9" in particular are totally unnecessary.
I actually think the best track on Yellow Submarine is "Hey Bulldog", not the previously released songs.
Sgt. Pepper is S tier, no doubt about it! For me Abbey Road is on the same level, and the medley is actually my favorite part, though "Here Comes the Sun" is my favorite individual song.
been waiting so long for this video. made my day thanks mike!!
Abbey Road medley is what makes that album amazing. For me Rubber Soul and Abbey Road are S-Tier material.
Paul’s bassline on the first chorus of Getting Better is his most tastefully written line on that album. Ps- yes I never understood the obsession on the white album. Always sounded like half the album was just a bunch of random jingles
Abbey road is S tier in my opinion but that’s just me
Lol it's definitely not just you😅
It took a LONG ASS time to warm up to the white album, and I still can't do the whole thing through. When it comes to 90-minute white-covered albums I'll take The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway any day.
Legit love you dawg, don’t stop doing the things you do
Thanks for this! I've always enjoyed the Beatles. They're my dad's favorite band and I listened to them growing up...but now after watching this, I should actually listen to them more in-depth.
Its just amazing how everyone has a different tier list, amazing
Its all too much from Yellow Submarine was a good one. Not many agree that but for me one of their most underrated song.!
I absolutely adore the second half of Abbey Road. I agree that they are unfinished songs but I feel like they are more woven than "slapped" together.
You never give me your money is great stand alone, then the amount of amazing melodies that McCartney used from She Came in through the Bathroom Window and onwards is incredible.
With the stitched together nature of those second half songs, I'd call side B of Abbey Road the greatest piece of progressive pop ever written.
Agreed, my favorite series of tracks in the Beatles discography. The reprisal of you never give me your money in carry that weight gives me chills every time
I agree, some of the greatest melodies, and the way it reprises is beautiful, the perfect swan song. Not sure how this is comparable to the disjointed nature of the white album when it's probably the most cohesive thing they did in terms of a continuous suite of music
You never give me your money is 100% on my top 5 Beatles songs list.
Octopus’s Garden is absolute, warm gold and if you hate it I never wanna meet you
I enjoy these style of videos Mike. Although I didn’t necessarily agree with all your rankings, I like hearing different takes and your explanation of why you ranked the albums where you did. BTW, nice Hendrix record in the background.
Dude just called the 2nd side of Abbey Road an “absolute mess”? The Abbey Road medley is the best part! It doesn’t matter if it’s a group of unfinished songs mashed together; the pure joy and pop brilliance of the entire thing make it an amazing grand finale for the band
In defense of Mr. Kite:
I get that it’s an odd song, but I think it fits the whole album in most ways. It’s one of those songs that just gives you a uniquely weird feeling throughout that I’ve not heard from pretty much any other song. Like a creepy uneasiness that fits within the narrative/idea that they’re playing as “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” not the Beatles. In that context, i say it’s fits quite nicely on that album. If you haven’t, you MUST go and listen to that song and just focus on the bass. You said this album was Paul’s best bass stuff ever, and Mr. Kite has some absolutely fucking incredible bass playing for sure. Maybe the best on the whole album IMO. If you don’t like the song as a whole, just listen to the bass and I think you’ll have a renewed interest in it. Once you hear the isolated bass in that song, that’s all you’ll be able to hear and it’ll give you a whole new perspective on the song. If you like Paul’s bass playing (and who doesn’t, amiright?!) there’s no way you won’t love his work on Mr. Kite. It truly doesn’t get much better than that.
I also disagree about the back half of abbey road. I fuckin love Sun King, and the whole medley is pretty damn awesome.
You're correct 😂
Bad Abbey Road take. The Medley is a stunning and bold conclusion to an incomparable career, a final celebratory climax and synthesis of John, Paul, George and Ringo’s creative alchemy. And, a symbolically fitting end to their catalogue; One final innovation, one last chance to subvert expectation and try something that’s never been done, as they’d been doing for the past 10 years. A suite. A pocket symphony. To call it ‘slapped together’ is a dire indictment on your taste and judgement.
Shut up nerd
I never thought i would love a metalhead ranting about how beautiful "she's leaving home" is, but here i am, liking every second of it.
Fun fact: I sang Drive my Car in the school talent show when I was six and that was what made me fall in love with performing music.
You have a warm, inviting aesthetic to your videos. subbed
I think Let It Be...Naked deserves to be ranked separately than Let It Be. It's what the get back sessions was supposed to be all about and it's a smarter package. I would rank it in B tier at least.
One of my favourite periods for the band was 1960-1962, they were doing some proto punk in addition to their ballads, really great stuff.
Surprised you made it all the way through this without mentioning how Beatles pretty much “own” major 7th chords. You’ll find them all throughout their discography. I definitely agree with you S tier, but I’d rearrange some of the rest. Revolver is my personal favorite. IMO, it was the record that literally changed music and how music is recorded. Automatic Double Tracking was introduced, John’s vocals ran thru a Leslie on Tomorrow Never Knows.
I agree about Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, although the story behind it is cool. One track from Sgt Pepper’s I’ve always loved and gets overlooked a lot is Fixing a Hole; such a hauntingly beautiful song and that descending vocal harmony over Paul’s last verse lyrics gives me chills every time
Oh, also I think in terms of composition and lyricism, A Hard Day's Night is up there with Rubber Soul and aome of the other best albums but doesn't get brought up because it's considered ''early Beatles'' and therefore people dismiss it. 'If I Fell', 'And I Love Her', 'Can't Buy Me Love', 'Things We Said Today' and 'I'll Be Back' are all incredible tracks.
Think about it. If we didn’t have the Beatles then we wouldn’t have such great modern day bands as One Direction, Green Day, and Greta Van Fleet
Green hey
Wise words, Mr. Conor
I'm guessing you're taking the piss but I can't tell
@@malawigw green gay 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭
We didn't need those bands.
To me "Help!" is my favorite Beatles album, and right under it is St. Pepper. And it took awhile for me to discover more and more of Beatles albums and songs. The thing that really helped that, was my friend from HS who had EVERY Beatles album, and Rock Band The Beatles. Man when my friend played the entire St. Peppers album, I was blown away, and that last song A Day In The Life. Holy shit first time I heard that song, I nearly shed a tear.
It makes me so happy to see someone recognizing Rubber Soul for the great album it is, it's actually my favorite, it just has this strange but cool vibe to it.
You should do an album ranking for Judas Priest
Hes done a recent Metal bands ranking tier list. Claiming he’d only put them in A Tier because of how influential and important they are to metal. Though he prefers Iron Maiden.
Great review ! 🎸
idk what you do on this channel but I'll subscribe to support you bc you're basically genius, even if I don't agree with everything :)
I've Just Seen a Face ❤ Had the pleasure of seeing Paul do this live the other week!
your abbey road take is ridiculous
Honestly the b-side on abbey road is the best part
you are so right about she's leaving home. my favorite beatles track ever, and probably one of the best ballads ever written.
My tier list doesn't compare the Beatles albums to themselves, rather they're ranked on their own merits:
S-Tier: A Hard Day's Night, Help!, Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt Pepper, White Album, Abbey Road.
A Tier: Please Please Me, Let It Be, With the Beatles, Meet the Beatles, Past Masters, Magical Mystery Tour.
B: Yellow Submarine.
I actually really like Yellow Submarine, movie score and all. Never heard another soundtrack score quite like "Sea of Holes" or "March of the Meanies".
The 2nd half of Abbey Road is the single one reason that's my fav album 🥺
we have all waited for this video for YEARS!
Great video! Would love to see a Billy Joel album tier list! If you do, definitely track down and use a corrected original version of 'Cold Spring Harbor', and not the remixed bastardized one from 1983. Keep up the great work! \m/
Do you happen to do reviews of local bands? Maybe not worth a full video but possibly a video with multiple different small bands on it, would like to see what you think about our album!
Ah yes, the video I've been waiting for, thank you.
Truly, the best and fairest Beatles album rundown I've ever come across. (Except: Revolver is #1 don't ya know?)
Im genuinely happy to see help in A tier above the white album. The white albums underrated.
Really love the list, Revolver is personally my favorite but I can't argue it over Sgt. Peppers. Rubber Soul is absolutely underrated, I really love the song The Word off of that album.
But that's what i like about the white album, it's weird in a spooky way. And mixes different genres
You're absolutely right!
Idk i just love the white album, i felt attacked by the meme
the run from Paperback writer/Rain to the Magical Mystery Tour songs (their psychedelic/acid rock phase) had the best quality/quantity ratio.
I would make some different choices of course, but I cosign pretty much all of your critical assessments here.
I would've loved to see what you think about Harrison's All Things Must Pass. It was pretty much done by the time they broke up, and in it are plenty of songs Macca and Lennon had rejected
Their first album is so underrated
I couldn’t make it all the way through .. the iconic
How can you call the b side of abbey road directionless when it is literally a medley
100% agree with your top 3. Rubber soul is so underrated. Drive my car & In my life will always be 2 of my favorite Beatles songs
I also think “The Word” doesn’t get enough love
I like Michelle and I'm Looking Through You
Norwegian wood and Girl
Great shouts too. One of the few beatles albums where I feel like there isn't really any song that isn't great
I totally agree with your take on, SHE'S LEAVING, it's a very beautiful but yet haunting song, it always brings a tear to the corner of my eye everytime that I hear it!
As a life long Beat,es fan I really appreciate Mike’s perspective on them. As I normally associate him with being more focused on the technical side of the music rather than the emotions it was really cool to hear him talk about the emotional weight of She’s Leaving Home and how much it affected him. That’s what I admire about them, they had solid musicianship and the ability to write songs that were strong on the feels.
You fumbled every step of the way but still put the correct album on top so all sins are forgiven
I actually think the beatles got better and beter with every album, and that let it be is their mastercrafted creation, to which every other record has led.
Magical Mistery Tour didn't have those 4 singles attached to it. They only came with the CD version. The original vinyl was an EP.
Paul McCartney actually played his D-28 acoustic on blackbird it’s amazing, also on help, “I need you” is one of there best and most underrated songs in my opinion
I like it and I think it's well-written. Just came across as a little stereotypically sappy for my tastes. I think I've Just Seen a Face feels more real. Just my 2 cents.
You should do one on Rush. I’m curious to see your opinions on albums like Hemispheres, Signals, Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures, etc. Signals especially since it’s a bit divisive. My friend for example, thinks that “Subdivisions” is the “Last great Rush song”.
You know, I was always saw Permanent Waves to be the most polished and balanced album in their discography. I love the Guitar Work especially on this album. “Enter Nous” is such an underrated song. And I always loved “The Analog Kid”, and “Digital Man”, which I though were the best pair off Signals. Once we get into the mid 80s, I lose interest. I think Snakes and Arrows was one of their greater late albums in their discography.
For me Moving Pictures and Hemispheres are the tits. Moving Pictures is THE sole reason I care about and have any knowledge about music today, and had I not discovered Rush I would have never played. I think the only thing that came as close was Yes's Tales From Topographic Oceans, but it's not quite as important to me as Moving Pictures was.
@@connerstines1578 “Cygnus X-1 Book 2: Hemispheres” is so good.
My favorite Beatles albums are Abbey Road, Magical Mystery Tour, and the white album, in that order from first to third. Amazing what they accomplished together.
Oh shit to watch right away or while I'm eating is the question
"A C-tier Beatles album is still better than most albums that anyone will ever release ever."
right on
Rubber Soul is totally S tier for me. It might be my favourite album
Grabbing my lunch for this one!
16:30 Act Naturally is a cover by Buck Owens, but I agree with how you described it
Shit I didn't even know that!
Pretty much agree but I f-ing love the Abbey Road medley.
I would have included the singles as Past Masters Vol. I & Vol. II for ranking purposes.
I'm a huge Beatles fan and I actually find Sgt Pepper's a bit overrated. It's not even a concept album, that's a common misconception. They gave up and just did whatever they wanted. I would rank it probably 5 or so on my list
