So, out of curiosity--what's everyone's favorite Beatles record? Right now, I'm into the White Album more than anything else. Thoughts? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
revolver |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Usually my favorite. Do you have (or have heard) the anthology two? It has great revolver outtakes! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Ewww, The Beatles... ... ... The White Album is my favorite work of art ever by homo sapiens, no other can do a double album with such wacky ambition and not sound silly like they're trying too hard. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
any songs rejected from revolver or just alternate versions of revolver songs? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm hooked on it--it's got everything! Passionate, personal songs. Chaotic, original, arrangements. Fun, singable tunes that everyone can get into. Romantic bits; depressing rock tracks! Pure genius! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Really good alternate versions. Tomorrow Never KNows is almost entirely different. I got mine used this weekend for half price. I want all the anthologies at some pont. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I have tons of bootlegs, including two called, appropriately enough ''Alternate Revolver 1 and 2. '' :-) There's no songs from that '66 era that didn't make it(other than studio jams), but hours and hours worth of practice tapes and shit, alternate mixes, takes, etc. I've many many gigs worth of shit like that on my 'puter. People are always IMing me on Soulseek BEGGING ME to let them jump the queue and swipe my rare Beatles. :-) |

I like a lot of them, so id have to say Anthology II. It doesnt have some of the essential revolver tracks though. |
||||||||
|
|

One of many such bootleg thingies. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
ooh la la! I really dig the versions of I'm ONly Sleeping :) One of my favorites! I gotta catch some shut eye though; see you folks later! |

Beatles question for the experts: I want to get "Hey Jude" on CD. What's the CD that has it but also has the least duplication with other albums (because I'll probably get all of the regular albums some day.) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
(I know it's a single) |
||||||||
|
|

abbey road - typically a band who hate each and are arguing other usually produce their best work at the time i also like a hard days night & the white album very much |
||||||||

not true for a tribe called quest's "the love movement" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Hey Jude the SONG? There's also a US album called ''Hey Jude''. Get Past Masters Volume 2. A collection of singles/B sides, tracks not on their albums. I guess this is what you mean by ''no duplication''? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or get the blue album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanks, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I just didn't want to get a collection like "1" where I already have most of the other songs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The problem with the blue album is that I already have Sgt Peppers, Abbey Road and the White Album, so that's a lot of dupes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you're going to get all of their studio albums, there's no sense getting the Red or Blue Albums. Or ''One'', for that matter... there's tracks exclusive to PM2 only. I don't even own the Red! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
red & blue have loads of singles which aren't on the albums, but there is a lot of duplication at the same time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But that's what PM1 and 2 are for, and they have songs that aren't on Red and Blue. Bah, greatest hit albums weren't meant for the Beatles anyway! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
At the moment..Rubber Soul. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
id say Sgt Peppers, but white album is a close second |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Magical Mystery Tour by far |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Abbey Road is a monster, along with Revolver. but you can't go wrong with the Anthologies, 2 + 3 are the best i think, gives you a real insight into how the band worked. heeeeeeeeeeeeeey, Bongo |

1st= white album, revolver tits there's a version of tomorrow never knows which is quite radically different to the album version. |
||||||||
|

see, now i always hear revolver come up as peoples favorite.... i have the album, and while it is good, i dont quite understand the fever over it. and ive heard the whole "it was at a time when they were transitioning, blah blah" argument. im just saying, white album... more variety than any other beatles record. more experimentation than anyother beatles record. more ROCKIN OUT than any other beatles record (re: ussr, pauls vocals on helter skelter). and on top of that, its just a MUCH heavier and more serious record than its predecessors. i would give #1 to abbey road, but white album is longer. and since i feel content-wise the quality is equal, this album gets it. i think let it be is sub-par. i think rubber soul is average (for them). i would say magical mystery tour and sgt pepper are directly under abbey road. klatu barata nikto! |

why does one have to understand a fever? |

Sgt. Pepper's lonely hearts club band. I just listened to it over and over again when I was little. My brother made me a cassette copy and I played it repeatedly on a beaten up old tape player. |

Don't have any, but I like Hey Jude *knows jack about the Beatles*. Might get into them when I have enough money to afford such things. |
||||||||
|

I am not sure how you throw Revolver's "transitioning" off as "blah blah". I own almost all of them, and my favorite is Revolver. As for the white albumn. It has some great tracks but stragglers aswell. I think production on the white albumn is sub-par to other efforts aswell. |

A Hard Day's Night should get an honorable mention for best pre-Rubber Soul Beatles. Perfect pop, 'tis. |
