    I gave the white album a 9/10, and I bet most of you can guess why just a 9

    I would probably rate them differently every day of the year, but as of July 26, 2016:

    Please Please Me 7/10 (too many lacklustre cover tunes and a couple of so-so originals)
    With The Beatles 7.5/10 (better job on the cover tunes than PPM)
    A Hard Day's Night 9.5/10 (nearly flawless, with the exception of "When I Get Home")
    Beatles For Sale 8/10 (underappreciated)
    Help! 8/10 (underappreciated, charming album)
    Rubber Soul 7/10 (extremely overrated, with the 1st side closing with one of their weakest and 2nd side opening with another of their weakest)
    Revolver 9/10
    Sgt Pepper MONO: 9/10, STEREO: 8/10
    Magical Mystery Tour 8/10 (loses points for "Blue Jay Way" and "Your Mother Should Know")
    The Beatles (more commonly known as the White Album) 8/10
    Yellow Submarine (Beatles side) 5.5/10 (loses many points for previously released tracks and ATN)
    Abbey Road 8.5/10
    Let It Be 9/10 (always enjoy listening to it, don't understand why many people think it's one of their weakest :confused:)

    ALL IMO, YMMV :)

    Please Please Me 7/10 (originals and Twist and Shout are stellar, the rest is meh)
    With the Beatles 8.5/10 (so much better! their cover of Money is probably my favourite cover)
    A Hard Day's Night 9/10 (can do without And I Love Her or I'll Cry Instead)
    Beatles for Sale 8/10 (quite a strong album, has some of their best pre-1965 songs)
    Help! 8.5/10 (side A is probably their best album side)
    Rubber Soul 9/10 (kinda weak in the middle but has quite a number of 10/10 songs)
    Revolver 9/10 (no album with Yellow Submarine or Good Day Sunshine will get a 10, but the rest is AMAZING)
    Sgt. Pepper's 8.5/10 (very overrated and without A Day in the Life this would get below an 8)
    Magical Mystery Tour 8.5/10 (some weak material outbalanced by some of their absolute best)
    The Beatles/White Album 8/10 (yes there is Dear Prudence, WMGGW, HIAWG and Helter Skelter, but there is also Wild Honey Pie, Rocky Raccoon and Good Night)
    Yellow Submarine Side 1 8/10 (It's All Too Much and Hey Bulldog are top tier songs)
    Abbey Road 9.5/10 (easily their best album. side 2 is a masterpiece)
    Let It Be 7.5/10 (is there any need for Maggie Mae and Dig It?)
    Let It Be... Naked 9/10 (replacing the two short songs with Don't Let Me Down and removing a choir from TLAWR makes A LOT of difference!)

    I just go Rubber Soul and on and judicious use of the skip button depending on my mood. Instant 10 when the skip button is factored in. I may never here Revolution 9 again even though I love the White Album

    I have come to terms with free as a bird and real love as being Beatles songs so they get added in

    All 10s, apart from the non-Beatles side 2 of Yellow Sub. There is no other album by a rock era artist that equals any of them in my opinion.

    I would put the album at left up with them.

    The album that changed the course of the 60's (and popular music). Love it.

    With The Beatles 7
    Not my favorite but still good. The U.S. "Meet The Beatles" is far better and is the one I listen to.

    A Hard Day's Night 8
    It would be a "9" if it were the much superior U.S. soundtrack featuring the wonderful instrumentals.

    Beatles For Sale 7.5
    Very good but not great.

    Help! 7.5
    When good it's actually great, though it's a little bit inconsistent.

    Rubber Soul 8
    The most distinct sounding album in the Fab Four's catalogue due to the deep, wooden sound.

    Revolver 8.5
    A wonderful and innovative record that steered the band to its studio-happy creations.

    Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band 9.5
    Simply put, the album of all albums. Popular music has never been the same...

    Magical Mystery Tour 9
    A personal favorite of mine capturing the Fabs in full psych (with some previous singles thrown in).

    The Beatles 9.5
    The Fab Four's most addictive and varied album with an aura to match. The greatest double album that ever was or ever will be.

    Yellow Submarine 6.5
    Nice but I don't frequently play it.

    Let It Be 7.5
    It's highs (Let It Be, The Long And Winding Road, I've Got A Feeling) are the best the band has to offer.

    Abbey Road 8
    Gorgeous production. Features my all-time favorite Beatles song (Here Comes The Sun) and, of course, the rest of the captivating side two.

    10's on every one of them (U.S. versions) with the exception of Beatles Story.
