I think the White Album is their best work by far, but I like Yellow Sub too just because no one else does.
Oh, and if you don't like the Beatles or think they're overrated; we've heard it before. Great.
Here we go againI love the earliest Beatles stuff because I like pure, raw rock n roll. My favorite album is "Beatles For Sale", but anything before about 1967 is cool. Now before Peewee starts calling me "insane", let me clarify that ALL the Beatles music is wonderful. I just prefer them "unadulterated"----before they had loads of money they couldn't afford alot of studio musicians, with synthesizers and special effects. Also the lack of modern technology kept it simple.
Here we go again
I like the simple stuff, but the studios and the drugs and stuff allowed them to be more experimental, you know? I love Lennon's work during and after the Beatles.
Here we go again
lol how often is this thread made?
Whatever album has "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" because that is head and shoulders above any other song they ever did IMO. Maybe Elenor Rigby comes close.
Elenor Rigby will always be my fave beatles song.. though it's hard because i'm a huge fan. lotsa good stuff, grew up listening to them.
It would be hard for me to decide. I get fed up by the Beatles every so often just to re-discover them again a few months later. I also like the early stuff, but I have no problem listening too all their songs.
A few year's back I picked up this CD. It's an amusing twist on the Beatles' music. "Here comes the sun" is my favourite track from that CD.
Revolver, Rubber Soul and Sgt. Peppers in that order
The White Album, Sgt. Pepper's, Revolver, Abbey Road, and Rubber Soul.
In that order.
They were the greatest musicians the world had ever seen, and have been unmatched thus far.
"Revolver" and "Rubber Soul."
I've also always loved "Help," but I don't know that I'd call it one of their best.
I've gotta say Abbey Road, since Here Comes the Sun might be the greatest rock song ever. For my #2, it's a toss-up between Help and Please Please Me. Still, I've never heard a Beatles album that wasn't a masterpiece.
I'm going to say Abbey Road as well. I also think Here Comes the Sun is probably the best Beatles song(it's definitely in the top 5). I think George Harrison was every bit as good as Lennon and McCartney...especially post Beatles.
While my Guitar Gently Weeps was off the White Album BTW.
As for how great they were...after the Beatles broke up...all four members had songs and albums that hit #1 on the charts...yes even Ringo...he was actually the first to do it after they broke up. That's pretty amazing.
I totally agree.
"My Sweet Lord" is a great song and showed that he was just as talented as Lennon and McCartney.
I think Harrison was just as talented as Lennon, and I'd put them both a step ahead of McCartney.
I second that.
Abbey Road -- "Come Together," "Something," "Here Comes the Sun," and the "You Never Give Me Your Money" medley at the end. I could listen to this album over and over without tiring of it.
1. Rubber Soul
2. Abbey Road
Another vote for Abbey Road here.
But the one I've listened to the most lately is Let it Be.
White album, Abbey Road, and Rubber Soul do it for me.
KSYM has or had a pretty excellent Beatles show on Sunday mornings. The guy who does it plays a lot of rare stuff and it's pretty entertaining.
Abbey Road, Let It Be, The White Album.
If it was that desert island thing those are the 3 Beatles albums I'd bring.
I chose Rubber Soul mainly because my favorite Beatles song is on that album.

Damn good song.
That's my second favorite Lennon song.
Does anyone remember the Beatles cartoons???
I used to watch them when I was a kid.
They were re-runs, of course.
