This album owns. Simple as that. Awesome review as well. Here Comes the Sun is one of my favorite Beatles songs.

This is still one of the most unique albums in history, with a lot of it just being the Beatles taking bits of unfinished songs (:23, yep, that's a song alright) and sticking them together. I don't think any other band could do that and have each song flow so amazingly well into the next. On CD you don't really get the intended effect of "Her Majesty", because when this album originally came out on vinyl, the first time you heard it the last part of "The End" seemed to actually be the end of the album, then the huge crash at the beginning of "Her Majesty" appeared. That's why there's such a long gap in between the two songs.

It's amazing that the beatles were at each other throats and hated each other while recording this. A great final album from the greatest band of all time.

This album is the Beatles best by far, Harrison shone on this album. Something is one of the greatest songs ever recorded and Here Comes The Sun is just as good, It just goes to show that all of the Beatles (Even Ringo with octopus' garden) can write songs, not just Lennon-McCartney.

I already had a pretty big beatles hard-on when I got this and was with the exception of a few tracks... was dissapointed. then out of nowhere BAM! Favourite album. The medley is superb, and "The End" is really cool. If you do not like Abbey Road, I probably will not like you. Sit booboo sit. good dog. And where the hell is abbey road blues on my copy?This Message Edited On 04.09.06This Message Edited On 04.21.06

OK,

Here`s the beef. This album is the last hurrah with the group. Paul was a dick during the song selection process insisting that he get Maxwells Silver Dildo on this album instead of one of George's All Things Must Pass songs. Paul couldn't handle the fact that George was emerging as a better songwriter the he was. The now herione addicted John who pissed the other guys off by dragging Yoko into their business, was able to muster up a couple of down and dirty songs, I Want You & Come Together which were an opposite of the overproduced Paul and George Martin offerings. Harrison's songs, Something and Here Comes the Sun are the best whole songs on this CD. The medly of the rest is dominated by Lennon's Sun King & Polythene Pam. Pauls writings were consumed with dissing Yoko's presence.

George Martin did his best job producing this album which clearly pre-viewed where they all were headed as solo artists.

John as a cause fighting activist who's catalog is amazing.

Paul as a money making pop artist who's catalog is littered with nonsensical songs and a few good ones.

George as a spirtual artist who's catalog is awesome especially compared to Paul's.

Ringo as a happy ex Beatle jamming with friends and having fun.

you really don't like Paul? Given he was rather tyrannical at times, but I believe that while George was better at playing an insrtument such as the guitar, paul was a better songwriter.

This album is perfect as it is, silly rabbits. But I used to hate Max's Hammer a lot.

I think he means he tried his best, but didn't actually do his best.

I can't even listen to I Want You (She's So Heavy). It's so ridiculously dragged out. For about 5 minutes too long.

Golden Slumbers= best Beatles song ever.

And maybe its just me, but "The End" is way better when its sampled in "The Sounds of Science" by Beastie Boys

Spat,

Why do you try to make me sound as if I`m contradicting myself ?



Here's the real quote: " ....Paul couldn't handle the fact that George was emerging as a better songwriter the he was. The now herione addicted John who pissed the other guys off by dragging Yoko into their business, was able to muster up a couple of down and dirty songs, I Want You & Come Together which were an opposite of the overproduced Paul and George Martin offerings."



"George Martin did his best job producing this album which clearly pre-viewed where they all were headed as solo artists."



That's what I really said.





"I can't even listen to I Want You (She's So Heavy). It's so ridiculously dragged out. For about 5 minutes too long." - Agreed
