This album doesn't get the credit it deserves. It's really one of their better ones, but when it has to stand with Sgt Pepper, White, Abbey Road ... well, there are few that can stand with that company, frankly.

C'mon; only those three genres? No folk, no jazz, no blues, no R&B, no show tunes? |

My pick for the best melody in a Beatles song. If not the best, it's in the group picture.

Ol' Blue Eyes is also on record (no pun intended) as stating that Something is the best Lennon/McCartney song ever. So it shows how much he knew.  |

uh...really? Great pop song writers of course..but they had their influences as well.Love them..but IMO, they get a bit too much credit. There was rock before them you know... |

Both of these rate high for me personnally, but as far as Beatles songs I would give the nod to In My Life. I can think of a few I like better, but not many. |

Perfection a beautiful economy of lyrics combined with a very seductive melody and a crystal clear George Martin production that convinces you that the boys are performing in front of you.

I know what you mean. Gotta pair of those cherry Shure ear buds last Xmas...just when you think you know every nuance of every song. |
