Abbey Road is the best. Revolution 9 is unforgivable.

I forget which album it is but they have a borderline classic in my mind that I probably 4.5'd just out of spite because I hate how this band was shoved down my throat as a child

The filler can be unbearable, but hey, While My Guitar Gently Weeps is on this.

Hippie parents?



Luckily, my dad knew he had awful taste in music so he never force fed me his shitty records. I had the luxury of discovering The Beatles on my own time.

It is hard to deny their songwriting genius; but nothing sounds good after hearing it countless times against your will via classic rock and oldies radio. Luckily though I branched out into prog rock like Kansas which led to bands like Rush and Dream Theater and the rest was history.



Although for the past few years I've been on an indie kick...

My father was into The Beatles when he was younger but he never made me listen, so I had the same luxury.

You're a DT fan, SowingSeason? It's probs in your best interest not to read my review of FII, then; we'd likely never get along.

I wouldn't say my parents made me listen, it is just that they liked the same 2-3 bands and that's all I heard. It was like Beatles - Moody Blues - Beach Boys on repeat with the occasional Rolling Stones or John Denver or Bob Dylan mixed in. All good bands IMO, it is just hard for me to stomach them in large doses now.



And yeah, I'm a DT Theater fan but I'm not really hardcore about them so

FII is their second best, imo



Band should've sold out. I will say I'm interested to see what they'll do without Portnoy. Hopefully no more dark lord shit.

As far as I'm concerned Dream Theater will never come close to Metropolis or Images and Words...I've listened to all their stuff but those are the main two I go back to

They were best with Kevin Moore.



On topic: Martha My Dear is a severely underrated song.

As far as I can see I mostly enjoyed the Beatles when played at the radio, in party and stuff, but I'm very rarely inclined to go and put their stuff in my cd player. Despite their undeniable ton of worldwide hits, The Beatles songs sound to me perhaps a bit less attractive than it was...after hearing them 1,000 times each (yes I'm that old), even if most of their songs stood the test of time.

The white album is extremely good and diverse but maybe a little too much novelty in some of the songs which overall wasn't too bad. I think it was much much better than magical mystery tour Perhaps a modern 1968 version of the classic Beatles sound.

My favorite album by the Beatles as well as having my favorite song of all time (hint, hint: look at my screenname). Even though this is almost like a solo album for all the Beatles, who can overlook - Dear Prudence, While my Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness is a Warm Gun, I'm So Tired, Helter Skelter, Sexy Sadie, etc.



Btw, if you all are interested in the wholw "Paul is really dead" theory then go to Netflix (gotta be a member) and look up: Paul McCartney is Really Dead - the Last Testament of George Harrison. Now it reaches alot but still something cool to watch.

Maybe he'll see the "Not affiliated with estate of George Harrison, Paul McCartney, William Campbell, Apple Corp or The Beatles" disclaimer this time.
