What's your favorite album by the Beatles?

Hi guys,
Everyone knows who the Beatles are. The classic British band that has made so many fabulous records. Even though they only lasted for 10 years, they recorded tons of great music during their short existence as a band. So, this thread is about what your favorite Beatles album is. Mine's Rubber Soul.
Best to all,
Ryan

[Mod: Please start the discussion with a reason(s) WHY you prefer Rubber Soul.

 

To be honest, probably Beatles For Sale and Capitol Rubber Soul take turns being my favorite now.
I like that good spot between early Beatles and weird Beatles.

 

Revolver

 

Abbey Road

we've obviously never done this thread before

 

The Beatles at the World's Fair

 

Abbey Road

 

Yup....a favorite Beatles thread.....cool.

 

Rubber Soul

 

That's easy, 'A Hard Day's Night'! The very pinnacle of British Beat, with John at his raucous best, Paul before he got too drippy, no sub-standard George songs, and no iffy Ringo vocals! All it needed was a 14th closing rocker (Long Tall Sally?) and it would've been perfect.

 

A Hard Day's Night (UK album). 100% Lennon McCartney, fresh, lively, exciting...

 

Abbey Road

 

This is about as simple and clear cut as it gets. Rubber Soul (U.K.) happens to be my third favorite, Revolver (U.K.)number 2 and The White Album sits grandly at the very top. My reasoning is multi-fold but pretty simple: the songs themselves and the way in which they were recorded/produced; the way in which the albums each "stood" in their time period in terms of the way the music sounded, it's relation to to other music around it and, not least of all, the way it was presented (cover art)...and finally..the personal memories the album holds for me from the moment I first laid eyes on it (even prior to actually hearing it).

 

I prefer Rubber Soul for its folk rock music, and it's the pinnacle of the Beatles starting a new genre.

 

Nice!

 

That's a great album! Has some funny songs on there.

 

Revolver. Beatles at their most experimental and cutting edge.

 

I love that album! I like She Said She Said a lot, even though it's a bit creepy.

 

That album is great... has a jangle pop sound to it that sounds similar to the Byrds.

 

Threads been done many x before

 

The White Album is an amazing record. Has some great tunes on there like Blackbird, Helter Skelter, Julia, etc.

 

I know... just because somebody has done a thread like this doesn't mean I don't have the right to do so.

 

A Hard Day's Night is cool. Has a jangle pop sound to it that sounds like the Byrds.

 

Indeed!

 

Me too! Great album.
