Revolver

Great album. The sitar can’t ruin it for me!

Amazing. Most songs were iconic, different and under 2:30.

George’s eyes on the cover haunt me but damn it’s a good album

Peak

The count in to Taxman gets me riled up like a dog

Dit is mijn all time favourite Beatles album. Denk wel 100 keer geluisterd, maar gaat gewoon niet vervelen. Dit is voor mij de definitie van 5 sterren.

My Fav Beatles Album!

really gosh dang good

One of the easiest 5s ever given. Was a favorite of mine on a recent deep dive into their discography and it still is.

great album, nothing I'll write here will say anything that wasn't already said about it. 2 points: - yellow submarine is by far the worst - peaks with tomorrow never knows at the end

I’ve always loved The Beatles but what is good about doing this list is that it makes you sit and listen to a complete album from start to finish once again, which in this day and age of short attention span is a gift! As for the album itself; it’s ace!

Day 244 Masterpiece. Simple as that. Highlights Eleanor Rigby And your bird can sing Tomorrow never knows

It was my first album in this list. What can I say about The Beatles that hasn't been said before? I think it's a great start if you want to deepen and expand your knowledge of music history. The album is great! What amused me the most is how modern it sounds. I guess a better way to say it is to say how much it still influences music. It's light and bright and just perfect for a walk on a sunny spring day.

Probably my favorite Beatles album from top to bottom. Very few weak tracks, lots of variety, and some great hits. One of the greatest albums of all time.

The Beatles

This album was quite good and I found some Beatles songs that I knew but didnt know they were on this album

curto e icônico, pra mim o melhor dos bitas

Incredible album

My favorite Beatles album

It’s The Beatles’ Revolver. It’s probably the peak of them as a rock band. If this isn’t 5, what is?

This album is so so good and my #2 Beatles album of all time. The music is so good, the songwriting is top tier, and it gets it all done in less than 40 minutes. There isn't a bad song but I think "Good Day Sunshine" is the weakest. The album is so diverse there is something here for everyone. Liked Songs: The entire album

I like this album, it might be one of my favourite Beatles albums. It keeps your interest with a lot of different sounds, and starting to get into Indian instruments and style. I like the production and it has a lot of experimentation knowing they wouldn't need to do it live. Eleanor Rigby has always been a favourite song from them, I love the strings. Tomorrow Never Knows is trippy and psychedelic and a brilliant closer.

Revolver may well be the Beatles' best album, even though it has Yellow Submarine on it.

phew, no brainer

I’m a big Beatles fan so I’ve listened to most of these songs before. Some of them probably hundreds of times. I know most Beatles songs are attributed to Lennon-McCartney but let’s be real, we all know when a song is primarily written by one or the other. Most of my favorite Beatles songs are McCartney songs, with Harrison being a close second. Track 2 “Eleanor Rigby” is one of my all time favorite songs. I was pleasantly surprised however by the Lennon track 3, “I’m Only Sleeping” and Harrison track 12, “I Want to Tell You”. Both I’ve maybe heard one or twice before this and now I’m wondering why. Underrated!!

Awesome album.

El único revólver que necesita este mundo, For No One es una canción que podría sentirse muy personal en más de un momento de la vida tristemente, Eleanor Rigby no necesita presentación pero mi favorita sería Got to get you into my life. No es mi álbum favorito de ellos pero fácil un top 3

For my actual interest in the songs on the album, four stars, but for the history it’s created and it’s innovation and musical revolution, five stars

I LIKE IT SO MUCHHH OMGGG!!!!!

Just superb. Simpsons: Yes

It’s not their best album though is it?

Tomorrow never knows no episódio de Madmen 🔥

Muitos feels, soundtrack da minha infância

Realmente tenho de ouvir mais Beatles. Gosto do quão straight to the point é. As músicas não engonham e em meia hora ouves um álbum bastante variado e interessante, que está sempre a puxar a tua atenção com alguma coisa nova. Muito bom!

Some say this is their best album. I’m not sure about that. Maybe. I see myself giving all their albums after Revolver 5 stars… except Yellow Submarine. They tore of the shackles of being a “boy band” and started thinking for themselves.

- Love the Beatles. - Every song is different, catchy, and still the whole album feels cohesive. - Love 'Eleanor Rigby' and 'Got To Get You Into My Life'

I think I've heard of these guys before. They're pretty good actually.

EXCELLENT, BEAUTIFUL.

The reputation surrounding this album is well-earned; it is a superb piece of work that justifies the high regard in which it is held by critics and listeners alike. That "Revolver" was recorded and released in 1966 is remarkable, as the production hasn't dated at all. While its predecessor, "Rubber Soul", represented an evolution away from the band’s earlier style, it still retained vestiges of that original sound. Revolver, by contrast, bears no resemblance to those early records; it is a rock album, pure and simple. The song-writing, arrangement, and production are all handled with precision. There are numerous tracks here that, despite never being released as singles, have gained a significant standing of their own. 'Taxman' offers sharp social commentary alongside a memorable riff, great bass line and a notable guitar solo from Paul McCartney. 'Eleanor Rigby' is a poignant composition, while 'Here, There and Everywhere' is particularly melodic. 'Got to Get You into My Life' introduces a soul-influenced sound that has invited many covers, and 'Tomorrow Never Knows' remains years ahead of its time. The latter features a striking performance from Ringo Starr - it is worth noting these are genuine drum parts rather than loops. Regarding 'Yellow Submarine', it was intentionally written for children, and I was part of that target audience at the time - it hit its mark. I found it captivating as a child and still enjoy it today. It's a lovey piece of whimsy. Finally, it is worth mentioning that 'Paperback Writer' and 'Rain' were omitted from the album to be released as a standalone single. Both are high-quality tracks, with 'Rain' in particular highlighting a fantastic performance from Ringo Starr. Five stars. Side one 1 "Taxman" (George Harrison) (5/5) 2 "Eleanor Rigby" (5/5) 3 "I'm Only Sleeping" (5/5) 4 "Love You To" (Harrison) (4/5) 5 "Here, There and Everywhere" (5/5) 6 "Yellow Submarine" (5/5) 7 "She Said She Said" (5/5) Side two 1 "Good Day Sunshine" (5/5) 2 "And Your Bird Can Sing" (5/5) 3 "For No One" (5/5) 4 "Doctor Robert" (5/5) 5 "I Want to Tell You" (Harrison) (4/5) 6 "Got to Get You into My Life" (5/5) 7 "Tomorrow Never Knows" (5/5) Total - 68 Average - 4.86 286/1001 153/286 albums reviewed were new to me

This is, by far, the best album by this beat combo.

Fantastic

Nice, actually (probably) the first time listening to Beatles album. i really liked these type of music.

Buen álbum, me gustó, tema conocido yellow submarine. El resto no conocía creo

Amazing. The Beatles started to get into fun drugs like LSD around this time and you can hear their existential crises come out in the lyricism. I love the experimental instruments like the sitar, strings, and Hindi music. Am I predictable? Most definitely.

Is this my favourite Beatles album? It very well might be. Some of their best songs on here and more focused than some of the albums that'll follow.

Incredibly album from a legendary band. This is when they really started to take hold as the influential band that they came to be. Sure, they were already incredibly popular but Rubber Soul is when I feel like they changed direction from the standard boy band stuff and Revolver solidified that new Beatles sound. Just think about it.....the two albums that came directly after this: Sgt. Pepper's Magical Mystery Tour There's no Sgt. Peppers without this album, in my opinion, and that alone makes this album a solid 5/5.

5 stars

Niet mn favo beatles album maarja

Outstanding album what more can you say. Yeah it has the cheesy song for Ringo to sing like all the other albums, but you can excuse that. Was tomorrow never knows the first drum and bass song ? 🤔

Бездоганно

Top ten start to finish.

The best album by the best band

Have heard of the Beatles Have not listened to the album in full Know the singles Great album. The start of the Beatles studio band period, and reading about thr making of, they were incredibly experimental and pioneered a lot of techniques.

Onkohan paras Beatlesin levy. Kuunnellaan vielä Rubber Soul ennen kuin hypätään johtopäätöksiin.

my favorite one

You could debate forever which is the Beatles' best album. This is probably my pick, despite the presence of Yellow Submarine. I love the cacophonous guitar sounds on Taxman, the weirdness of Tomorrow Never Knows, and (almost) everything in between.

Classic

nice

Great album that stands test of time

I’ve always preferred later Beatles to early Beatles and this album feels like the start of the change from one to the other. More experimentation with instruments and sounds and more polished lyrics and song ideas. Tomorrow Never Knows for example, what a great song and probably ahead of its time. A couple of the ‘typical’ Beatles songs but overall a very good record with lots of great songs. I’ve rather backed myself into a corner though by rating previous Beatles offerings with 5 stars. This the best one so far so will have to be a 5 as well. Perhaps I can downgrade the previous ratings. Can we start this project again?

My favourite Beatles album so far and great to kick it off with an open debate on the merits and limitations of an ultra progressive tax system. I love the variety in songs and the way you can tell the difference between the respective songwriters including Harrison. The music is ridiculously ahead of its time. Lacking any real classics and did it really need Ringo singing?

You either like them or don't but this is almost a perfect album. They show their range in styles, they use experimental production techniques, they have great songwriting. Their influence on future generations of music is undeniable and you get a great dose of it in this album.

Es bleibt eines der zeitlosesten Alben der Beatles – ein Werk, das 1966 die Popmusik neu definierte und bis heute frisch wirkt. Mit Stücken wie „Eleanor Rigby“ und „Yellow Submarine“ zeigt das Album die ganze Spannweite der Band: von kammermusikalischer Melancholie bis zu farbigem Psychedelic‑Pop. Die Mischung aus Experimentierfreude, melodischer Brillanz und stilistischer Vielfalt macht Revolver zu einem Meilenstein, der nichts von seiner Kraft verloren hat.

Absolutely incredible record

Not even Yellow Submarine is enough to ruin my listening experience of this...well Taxman is kind of gross but the bassline saves it

I know there always comes that time in the party when the whole who's better Beatles v. Incubus conversation/argument comes up, and I'm still sticking with the Beatles. And yes I have heard Battlestar Scaratchlica but my mind is still made up.

Nothing more needs to be said about the Beatles or this album. This is my favorite album of theirs: concise, focused, and minimal fluff.

This album has a fair argument for being the best Beatles album. Which means it has a good argument for being the best album of all time. It doesn’t quite hang together as much as Abbey Road, and it could be longer. But it’s always a joy to listen to.

12 of the best songs ever written (+Yellow Submarine & Dr Robert)

One of the finest albums!

Fantasic.

A truly great album...except maybe Yellow Submarine (but even in that song there are some nice studio touches). I'd like to give this 4.5.

good vibes

A solid selection from The Beatles discography. Not often my first pull, but that should not discount the goodness of this record. Eleanor Rigby- what a gem. I have heard this song a million times and it always hits.

Not a bad song on this album. This was the first Beatles album I bought and remains my favorite.

Ok just in terms of importance this get an uncontested 5. You can hear the moment that the counterculture of the 1960s becomes fully mainstream just by listening to Revolver. On the first half you can hear The Beatles pulling the emergency breaks on their previous style in songs like Elenor Rigby, Taxman, Love You To. By the time you hit Tomorrow Never Knows at the end of the album, The Beatles (and western music) are barreling off in a completely new direction. I also really like the album art for Revolver.

It's the best Beatles album.

No words needed.... oh

I didn't know many of these songs. Eleanor Rigby (all the lonely people) one of my favorites

5 stars! My second favorite Beatles album. Some of my favorite memories with my brothers is playing Beatles Rock Band and long nights listening to our parents records together. I often find my self going back to their albums as a source of comfort and joy. Also, our baby finds this record particularly enjoyable, which is a good sign.

my ranking of Beatles albums changes on a semi-regular basis, but this one is always extremely high. i will find out if i am remembering correctly when i post this monday morning, but i *think* this will be a five from Brandon, and it's likely to be a five from me. will be hilarious if i am misremembering and he hates this one, but i don't think i know anyone who hates Revolver. "For No One" is fucking gold, "And Your Bird Can Sing" is also maybe a favorite Beatles song for me... idk man, the White Album will forever be my fave, but is this #2? might be

I've said it before and I'll say it again, my favorite Beatles album always changes. But my entire childhood, this was 100% my favorite Beatles album

I only got 3 zebra texts on Friday, very disappointed in you guys!! Anyway I anticipate there’s others in the group who will share my love of this one so I’ll be shorter today. But I think if you caught me on the right day I’d lock this in as a potential best album ever, as distinguished from “favorite” Understanding the greatness of The Beatles mostly involves talking a lot about calendars. Please Please Me comes out in 1963. They play “I Want to Hold Your Hand” on Ed Sullivan in 1964. Then, somehow, by 1966 they’re doing drum loops and reciting quotes from the Tibetan Book of the Dead. In a vacuum, they’re a band that made some really good songs, but also the time between their first and last album is 2 years less than the amount of time since I’ve been out of college, yet they produced such a high volume of music of such high quality, in a way that has never been replicated, let alone surpassed. In the internet age, it is impossible to appreciate this evolution, because we have unfettered access to basically all of recorded history. But I want you to imagine, for a moment, that you live in an analog age. The only music you've heard is what gets chosen to play on the radio or what you've been adventurous enough to actually purchase. You have no idea what a significant number of musicians even look like, unless their picture is on the album art. So you saw The Beatles on Ed Sullivan, you bought Rubber Soul and said "gee whiz! this album is out there!" because the keyboard was sped up on "In My Life" and "Norwegian Wood" had a lead instrument you've almost certainly never heard because, in this scenario, you're a farm boy in Kansas and you have a Forrest Gump haircut. After your mother is finished washing your mouth out with soap for uttering a phrase as vulgar as "gee whiz," you make your way to the record store to buy the brand new follow-up album, Revolver. The store clerk gives you a disgusted look because 5 months earlier, John Lennon said in a newspaper interview that The Beatles were more popular than Jesus, but you coolly explain to her that you are actually buying the record so you can burn it with your youth group. She smiles approvingly and probably says something really offensive and unrepeatable by today's standards. You get home and throw the record on and ELEANOR RIGBY IS TRACK 2 AND THEN I'M ONLY SLEEPING HAS A WEIRD REVERSE GUITAR SOLO AND LOVE YOU TO IS HAS FULL ON SITAR AND TABLA AND WHAT IN THE LOVE OF CHRIST IS GOING ON Best Beatles album frfr and also if this is your first time listening to this you probably got to listen to the 2022 remaster and not the godawful 2009 fake stereo mix where they just stick the guitar on one side and the vocal on the other.

Easily one of the most influential albums of all time. The Beatles have many 5/5 albums and this is one of the absolute best.

muy bueno

Perhaps my favorite Beatles album. This album that proved to the Beatles they could get away with anything. A transition between the pure pop of the early years, and the more experimental records to follow. So many great songs on this one, and one of the best closing songs of all time ("Tomorrow Never Knows"). I often wonder how fans of the Beatles viewed this album. Were they repulsed at first? Or did they go along with it? Every song feels like a different experiment.

not a bad song on it

60’s Rock ⭐️Eleanor Rigby

Given the calibre and enjoyability of some of the stuff on this list Revolver is an instant 5 from me - It’s didn’t even need to listen really. This is also one of my fave records by The Beatles though and that is saying something. Love Your To and Tomorrow Never Knows are just such a monumental achievement in pop music. There is some great John stuff on here, and some huge Paul Classics, plus Yellow Submarine! Amazing stuff.

Enjoyable. Some songs a bit odd, but good colour and overall it feels fun and a good listen. Favourites : I want to tell you, Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine

I’m ne of the best albums ever.

There’s nothing I can say about this album that hasn’t been said a thousand times. Not my personal favorite Beatles album, and maybe a little over-hyped by some critics today, but I can’t listen to it without smiling and singing along.

I mean come on! It’s the Beatles. Not content to just jangle the pop sounds this explored new dimensions musically and I think it mostly works. Not my all time favorite album of theirs but it’s up there. “Eleanor rigby”, “and your bird can sing”, “I’m only sleeping” and “tomorrow never knows” are my faves.

Incredible. Classic track after classic track and the innovation!

it’s a classic, there’s really nothing more to be said.

Definitely in the upper echelon of Beatles albums. Loaded with great songs

You skip the two sitar songs and dr roberts but everything else is so good...

Can't go wrong with this one!

A perfect album

Very Beetles sounding, good good.

Tried to listen with fresh ears like l've never heard any of the songs. Definitely a couple standouts and overall excellent album. Absolutely love Tomorrow Never Knows.

Look, I may be Beatles-pilled but I don't think there's an album of theirs that I don't love.

I have pretty mixed feelings on a lot of the Beatles albums', but this is definitely one of the good ones. With the exception of the out of place, but still enjoyable, in a kids tv show way, Yellow Submarine, every song is a hit.

I love it, the best album ever

This is definitely one of my favorite Beatles albums. In re-listening to it I was struck by how short the tracks are. But they pack a lot of great lyrics and interesting arrangements into these short tracks and ther This e seems to be some variety of sound from tractor track. Eleanor Rigby, being very somber and sad and the beautiful use of violin. two more of a poppy rock sound of God to get you into my life to the more experimental and innovative sound of tomorrow never knows. It’s a great album and it was really fun to listen to this again.

My favorite Beatles album - just nudging out Abbey Road. Paul’s songs are some of his best - Eleanor Rigby, Here, There and Everywhere, Got to Get You Into My Life. Not a bad song on the album. I really like the closing song - Tomorrow Never Knows.

Amazing album. I had only heard a couple of songs from this album before and I’m surprised that my favorite songs from it are the ones I just discovered as opposed to the ones I already knew. Hidden gems this whole time! They are musical geniuses these lads. Huge respect for the craft, creativity, and mastery.

This is one of those 5/5 Beatles albums. A must listen.

I may be biased because this is the Beatles album I grew up on but it's just banger after banger As a child I LOVED Eleanor Rigby and found For No One so devastating i could barely listen to it - on this listen Tomorrow Never Knows really stuck out to me. A treat!

Decided to listen to this while doing my taxes. lol I was raised on the Beatles but I don't remember this album as much as others. I do recognize some of the songs: Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine (I watched this movie a number of times!), Got to Get You Into My Life. I enjoyed hearing some new (to me) Beatles.

I’ve listened to this one hundreds of times but every time I listen again I just like it even more

d los mejores d los bitel

Love this one! Taxman hits home. Fuck those people. There are a ton of hits on this. Probably a fair bit of drug use, too, especially on Yellow Submarine. This album is a 5

Not above Abbey Road for me

What an album. 5

35 minutes go by too quickly. There's something special about how Eleanor Rigby uses those strings. They really do feel like they sing almost like additional characters in the story.

That's a solid album, listened to it a few days before it popped up and it's just so strong.

Not just the best Beatles album; the most career-representative Beatles album. Everything each Beatle did before and after this record is perfectly exhibited here.

Easy 5/5

Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream. Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void. I am a sucker microtonal instruments and tape manipulation. Front to back perfection.

As good as it gets

Listened to at 19.02.2026. Now I understand why it was such a hit not only in UK but worldwide. Many songs are engaging and catchy, not just the yellow submarine.

Her e det ikke så mye å si, men jammen ganske mye å sette pris på. Ikke minst at æ også fant ut at det va den første LP-en mora mi kjøpte, og det e fint å tenke på. Æ tror ikke mine hypotetiske barn hadde blitt like imponert av min Megadance-CD, så det e kanskje like greit at æ forblir barnløs.

What am I supposed to say on these Beatle albums? Like They're the most famous and important band of all time for a reason. It's like trying to find an original way of saying Shakespeare was a good writer or calling Kubrick a great filmmaker. There's no way of saying it that dozens of other smarter and more articulate people haven't said a trillion times better. 10/10. A few of there albums that have popped up here maybe don't quite deserve to be on it but this one definitely does.

so iconic so good a bit too experimental for me but still

I love this album. here there and everywhere potentially favourite beatles song ever??

Is this the greatest album of all time? An easy argument could be made.

A classic

Masterpiece

The context around this album makes it an incredible record. The shift in global musical direction after this album makes it an incredible record. The songwriting makes it an incredible record. Every song on this record is unique and they are all memorable. For being such a strange, experimental album, its production is still so professional. It's just a really cool album. I like the Beatles, but not THAT much, and even still I can't sleep soundly giving this album any less than a 5.

Interesting how the critical pendulum swings, and it seems this one has been on top for these boys and all boys for a long time. For me it's a lesser beatles though - sometimes the song serves the experiment more than rubber soul say, and it really just doesn't have as consistently memorable songs as others. Eleanor rigby, good day, dr robert drum loops all tight as hell, I'm not one of these sad folk who feel the need to somehow conjure up a dislike of these guys, and don't get me wrong still a masterpiece.

Expectacular give me 5

Classic and almost perfect

my favorite beatles album so far

One of the greatest albums ever recorded

Best Beatles albummmmmmmm 100/5 -Ruby One of the goats. —Noah

Easiest 5 stars I’ve given so far. The best Beatles record.

Still sounds as fresh as it sounded in 1966... perfect.

Some say it's the best album ever.

I hadn’t listened to this album in a while. It’s great though.

Qué decir, sólo puede ser un 5

Very solid album, obviously.

There are 1089 albums on this list, Revolver was number 1060 for me. I bring this up, because I think it's funny, especially when so many people refer to it as the biggest link in evolution from album to album for The Beatles. I got 4 Beatles albums in the 300's, and then didn't get another one for over half the project until Sgt. Pepper's at 953. The two arguably biggest advancement's with innovation, took the longest. I think there are a lot of artists on the list you can listen to their albums in whatever order and it works out, but Beatles are one, I would also say maybe Led Zeppelin, where the evolution of the artist plays a key role in understanding what you are listening to. After all of this waiting, and excitement (especially since there aren't many albums I know I'm waiting for with a month to go) I couldn't listen to this one right away since my left ear was completely shot due to a medical issue. Possibly the worst band to lose left right stereo audio on... Funny how life works... Anyways to the review. Admittedly I was a bit surprised by how "pop" the album sounded and was expecting a bit more experimental. (not that it isn't.) Eleanor Rigby has already been a favorite Beatles song of mine, even before the deep dive into the catalogue. Somehow I've avoided listening to Yellow Submarine my whole life so that was a fun one to hear for the first time in full. I loved how well John's vocals were, and I really gotta wonder how many albums before this one had such a consistently driven bass-line that wasn't just holding the song down, and was actively the melody or main attractions. I gotta imagine Paul's Bass-playing on this album was a remarkable achievement at the time. The back-half was a bit lackluster for Beatles standards, not to say it was boring, but maybe it'll grow on me the same way a lot of the White Album has. A little side tangent, I had a moment of recognization for the closer Tomorrow Never Knows, despite never hearing it before, until pinning it to Mad Men, and one of the biggest scenes in the show. Pairing this with the knowledge of the inevitable stampede influence of the latter part of the Beatles catalog, and how that parallels to the context of the scene in Mad Men elevates that scene for me and my love of that show. All in all I really enjoyed the album, I would probably rate quite a few Beatles albums higher than it, but maybe that's something that'll change over time, as Beatles albums often do. Regardless, I am gonna use this final Beatles album to reflect on how wonderful it has been to experience the band as a whole, and it being one of the shining hallmarks of the project. I truly think that every person could find a Beatles song that they could connect with, or find something within if they searched enough, and that is a special trait that I don't know how many other artists have. The farther we get removed from the 1960's, society around us seems to go through an echo-chamber of repeated conversations of "The Beatles are overrated" or "The Beatles are underrated because so many people think they are overrated/hated." I don't know if there is a correct answer to it, similar to how I don't know if there is a best answer to who your favorite Beatle is. (Mine seems to change depending on what song I'm listening to) What I do know is they absolutely deserve to be heard as one of the most influential bands of all time, and that not only did they evolve music as a whole, they probably helped build the stadiums that influenced artists who followed them would sell out in years to come. In a time where we can see the true vastness of history and how much has been lost and forgotten, The Beatles are one of the few things in the history of music, that's legacy won't be forgotten, erased, or lost to the sands of time.

Classic! The first time I heard Eleanor Rigby I was watching Give My Regards To Broad Street

I've loved this my entire life. Even the clunky Paul songs (Here, There, and Everywhere and Got to Get You Into My Life) aren't as cloying as his songs on other albums. Tomorrow Never Knows is so, so good. There's a scene in Mad Men where Don Draper comes home and finds this album in his apartment. He turns it on and we see him react to Tomorrow Never Knows. It was a great TV moment that showed the culture clash that was to come in the mid to late 60s. I digress. Everything about this album is perfection. No notes, except to say Eleanor Rigby terrifies me as I age.

nice acoustics clean vocals for a 60s

I really love it

My favourite Beatles album? No. But easily worth of 5 stars compared to most of the albums on the list.

I wish I could rate it higher

A classic favorite

Una de las primeras demostraciones de poder de Tue Beatles. Podrían no haber sacado nada más y ya serían una de las mejores bandas de la historia.

Nothing to add

When Beatles come around I know I'm in for some fun times. Even when they're played to death, the music still manages to sound fresh, creative and joyful. This album is no exception, every single song here would be a banger of most other bands on this list. And while most albums in the list only hold a few bangers that carry the whole album, this album has absolutely no slouches. Yes, the sound and vibe is not consistent, but who cares? It's good listen from start to finish. Might be my favorite album in my journey so far.

Part gritty social commentary, part goofy silliness, "Revolver" is yet another example of why The Beatles remain so popular and influential today. They were (are) musical geniuses.

It's one of their best. Some absolutely sublime songs. Here, There, and Everywhere being my favourite. Fab cover art too.

I love it! Such fun to listen to an album where you know the words to every song!

It may not be the best Beatles album but it's in my top 4.

What’s to say that hasn’t already been said!

Still can't quite get on board with calling this my favorite Beatles record, but damn, it's good. and Tomorrow Never Knows still rips.

Fab five or 4

I mean. I MEAN. I mean… It would honestly be embarrassing how much I love this album, if I could bring myself to feel embarrassment about it. This morning I wrote a whole essay about it and the Beatles and the role both have played over the past few years in my life/my friendships/my first extremely tame forays into drug use/my falling out of love with cynicism and misanthropy and ironic detachment, etc. etc., which I got as far as copying and pasting into this review box before I decided: no, come on, too many words, and more damningly, WAY too personal. Not the right venue. Maybe I really should just start up a Substack. ANYWAY… Setting aside all of that. There’s probably nothing I can say about the album in and of itself that hasn’t been said a million times already by a million other people who’ve loved it just as powerfully as I do, or more. They’re great songs. Fucking OBVIOUSLY everyone should listen to all of them before they die, preferably as many times as possible

Undeniably one of the Best albums ever made 🫡

The first definitive example of the Beatles’ impact on all of the subgenres of rock you love and cherish today. Revolver, in my view, was the first time the Beatles established themselves as true trailblazers of the direction western music would take from the late ‘60s and onwards. Beforehand, they’d struck popularity through sounds that other cultures has established way before them - but Revolver is the experimentation that can definitely prove the Beatles’ seminal and original impact on where we are today. An undeniable 5.

Fav tracks: taxman, Eleanor Rigby, I’m only sleeping, here, there, and everywhere, yellow submarine, for no one, tomorrow never knows Literally no skips, this album is so peak. Genre bending between psychedelic, do-wop, and world influence

I get why this is a top album. It’s got some great hits and is just overall a very cohesive fun album!!

Maybe their best album. The instrumental complexity is great and a lot of the best songs on the album never get any play. Tomorrow Never Knows is a fantastic end to the album and highlights it well. I'm Only Sleeping is great. Taxman aged really poorly. Also, Ringo should've been cut off.

There are a lot of Beatles albums on this list and this is one of the ones that deserves to be on this list. Taxman is a unfortunate way to start though. Eleanor Rigby clicked for me the first time I heard it many years ago. I'm Only Sleeping is inspiring. As always it was very nice of them to let Ringo join in. For No One is a big one sonically. It's interesting that so much of the music from the 1990s and early 2000s seems directly influenced by this album specifically. One of the more cohesive albums by the Beatles. Still undecided for me if I like this more than Rubber Soul or not.

One of the most influential albums in history

This album is forever seared into my brain after some extensive listening following heartbreak at 22.

class

Legendary, revolutionary, crazy this came out 60 years ago

It isn’t particularly coherent, but my word it is spectacular. Eleanor Rigby and Tomorrow Never Knows arguably redefined popular music in radically different ways. The level of ambition is incredible.

There are times when I think The Beatles are overrated, and then I listen to ‘Revolver’ again and it reminds me of how absolutely mind blowing this must have been on release. The influences of the Indian sub-continent really gives the ears something new and fresh to listen to fused with some of their best songwriting to date. Yes, ‘Yellow Submarine’ is awful, but it also has ‘Eleanor Rigby’ on to counteract it. To finish with ‘Tomorrow Never Knows’ which wouldn’t sound out of place on a Caribou or Chemical Brothers record is ballsy and leaves you with this hypnotic feeling that must have been so wildly far ahead of its time.

10/10

Top class. Still pop enough for me at this stage

Album frais, iconique des Beatles, avec des sonorites studio, des super harmonies. Batterie assez rapide, percussion, album assez calme avec des melodies qui changent un peu. Album qui marque la fin de la periode « gentils garcons ». Innovation technique notemment dans la maniere d’enregistrer les instruments en studio

Love it best Beatles album tomorrow never knows is my favorite

Masterpiece

Fav; here, there, & everywhere 5/5

Ah, I’ve been looking forward to this. I grew up listening a lot to The Beatles, but almost only compilations - never really the full albums. So there’s quite a few songs on this album I don’t really know. I love the classics: Eleanor Rigby, Here There and Everywhere and Taxman. But some of the «new» songs are equally good, especially the "sitar-songs": Love You To and Tomorrow Never Knows.

Masterpiece

Huge Beatles fan. Revolver is my favorite Beatles album, though almost tied with its' sister album, Rubber Soul.

Favorite - Taxman + I’m Only Sleeping 10/10

One of the best Beatles albums I have heard. Lots of innovation and even deleted takes of songs were fun to listen to. Really cool album art to accompany it as well.

classic. amazing songs, beautiful artwork.

Love!

The best bass line ever

Great but short listen

This album has always been nails. This album just kicks every kind of ass there is, from Taxman to Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine, And Your Bird Can Sing. I just love this sheet.

Had Rubber Soul a couple of weeks ago now I get Revolver. It's impossible to really say what the very best Beatles album is but there's as strong a case for this as anything else. Released 9 months after Rubber Soul (ridiculous), it takes it to a whole new level in terms of sound and production quality - they spent thousands of hours recording and mixing this to get it right. They were insanely productive around this time and no wonder they stopped touring. All Beatles chip in on this one with Harrison's 'Taxman' opening the album, kicking off about the taxes being imposed at the time (rings very true today) whilst Ringo takes the lead vocal on Yellow Submarine, which I'll have nothing bad said about. But great songs abound from Lennon at his dreamiest best in 'I'm Only Sleeping' and 'She Said She Said' then 'And Your Bird Can Sing' which is nothing at all like that, a rock song centred around an irresistible riff. Meanwhile, McCartney's 'For No One' and 'Good Day Sunshine' providing a nice juxtaposition of sorrow and optimism before the soulful sunburst of 'Got to Get You into My Life'. And in closing the head spinning and influential Tomorrow Never Knows inspired generations of psychedelia and electronica and still sounds remarkable today. Im not really into 'I Want to Tell You' or 'Dr Robert', they are the weakest songs here but do fit in well with the theme of the album. Easy full points, possibly the best album ever.

My first favorite Beatles album. The designation has changed over the years, but there is so much fun on this. Little moments like the bass at the end of 'And Your Bird Can Sing' and the fade-in guitar to 'I Want To Tell You' to the horns in 'Got To Get You Into My Life' (and don't forget the drum fills at the end of each verse!) - just so much to love across this entire album.

Subba

Ein grandioses Album der Fab Four. Hier befinden sich die Beatles auf ihrem Zenit der im darauffolgenden Album seinen Höhepunkt findet. Hier dominiert aber noch der Merseybeat mit den passenden Gitarren, was dieses Album von seinem Nachfolger abhebt. Highlights: Die Basslinie von Doctor Robert und die Duettgesänge von Paul und John bei She Said she Said und and your Bird can sing.

Mindestens top 3 Album der Beatles = 5 Sterne.... Sehr diverse Mischung durch Übergang zur experimentellen Studio-Band

It's not bad. It's interesting music and I feel I should listen to it once at least. Sent me down a rabbit hole of 60s psychedelia. Fun.

Bah classique

another one i've not listened to a while, but i know it will rank 4 or 5 stars. just amazing songs start to finish here "eleanor rigby" is still just a perfect pop song. beautiful and melancholy "i'm only sleeping" is a, well, sleepy hit. it's one of those songs that's a clear response to _Pet Sounds_, and that's to this song's benefit "here, there and everywhere" is a great, longing love song. it sounded a little dated at its time, but now it sounds timeless. "yellow submarine" is often written off as a novelty. it really isn't. whimsical, tuneful, enjoyable. give it a listen "she said she said" is a perfectly fine blues-based pop song. not the greatest beatles song but still fine. "good day sunshine" continues the blues-based pop song tradition, but paul's playing and singing really brings this song into greatness. that chorus is rightful beloved by the masses. "and your bird can sing" is a top 5 beatles song for me. there is nothing revolutionary about it, but the interaction of them all is in full swing here. just smart songwriting and playing all around "for no one" paul's interplay between his voice and piano is solid here. also, french/english horn almost always=great pop song in my ears "doctor robert" is a song. i like it because one of my best friends is a literal doctor robert "i want to tell you" is almost dissonant at times, mainly due to that bouncing piano. it's kind of gloriously weird "gotta get you into my life" is pure pop perfection. this version is outstanding, but i still prefer the earth, wind, and fire cover. give it a spin. "tomorrow never knows" is one of the best album-enders of all time. _revolver_ shows why ringo's drumming is often unfairly maligned, this tune in particular.

beautifully quirky

★★★★★★★

Mi album favorito de los Beatles. Masterpiece.

Classic album

9/10 - Classic and at their prime. Psychedelic Beatles are the best Beatles.

Review - Love this album. The band's moving into trying out more experimental songs, taking influence from psychedelic and world music. This doesn't always make for the best songs, but it's interesting to see their expanding influences and changing songwriting. Meanwhile, even the less experimental songs are expanding beyond their earlier , more formulaic rock and roll style. Some of their best songs are in this album. Rating 9.5/10 Need to hear? YES

My favorite album of all-time.

Saw a compelling argument that the presence of the best Beatles song ("Tomorrow Never Knows") on this record (which is a good choice) makes it a strong contender for best Beatles album. I'd agree... almost. It has "Yellow Submarine" on it, which is arguably the worst Beatles song.

Genuinly so good, one of my favorite albums of all time. One of the easiest 10 out of 10s so far

10000000/10

Love Love Love the beatles. Fave songs: Elanor Rigby, Taxman, Here there and everywhere

The Beatles full shift into pop to psyche rock. Influence from their experience in travels and consumptions. The riff starting with John + Paul is obvious from the song styles.

Great throwback! Eleanor Rigby is a fave!

1966 fire!

Easy 5 stars.

Aw hell yeah a classic

What really needs to be said here?

Revolver is the Beatles shunning any care for live performances and creating a purely studio album. Primarily a work of psychedelia, the band embraced experimentation regarding both musical and lyrical content to create a diverse sounding album. Chief among these includes Indian influenced strings (Tomorrow Never Knows), metal-esque impressions (Taxman) and a nautical atmosphere (Yellow Submarine), complete with glasses, chains and bells. Not all of these innovations hit the mark, and the sound and feel of the drugs the Beatles were consuming during the album's composition are clearly felt. The experimentation can also alienate the more conservative sounding songs such as "Here, There and Everywhere". Yet the album's layered and vibrant sounds, combined with classic Beatles melodies, have rightly secured this album a place among the greats.

its fa fuckin beatles bro

👏👏 didn’t realize I knew some of the songs. Iconic.

🥞

Lo sigo escuchando y es realmente el tipo de música que me gustaría empezar a escuchar más !! Estuve escuchando mucho djo estos días y me transmitieron ciertas vibes parecidas

putaalbum

Stand out tracks: Taxman Eleanor Rigby Yellow Submarine Tomorrow Never Knows Based on my personal taste I’d give this album a 4. For its iconicness and influence at the time I’d give it a 5. The kind of production for Tomorrow Never Knows was incredible for the era of music.

A close second place to Abbey Road.

Revolver is one of my all time Beatle favorites !!

Beautiful! !! “Here, there and everywhere”!!

Obvious 5

Got already

Their best in my opinion.

One of my Top 5 Beatle's albums, so many of these songs are iconic and written into the social & artist fabric of the times. They NEVER get old ! Recognized as one of the greatest and most innovative albums in the history of popular music, its range of musical styles, diverse sounds and lyrical content stand tall all of these decades later.

This album is very familiar to me. This may get better with age for me?

SHOCKING: THE BEATLES ARE GOOD!!! Okay. Admittedly some of the songs are a bit silly, but they're still good :)

Unbelievable album. McCartney’s songs are so impossibly good on this. But even the couple of lesser known album tracks are solid. One of the Beatles’ best.

I think this was my first time listening to a Beatles album all the way through. I recognize a lot of the songs. Overall I was surprised how interesting and experimental this album was. I liked it!

It’s the Beatles at their best in my opinion. Listening to this album you can tell a lot of thought was put into creating something that is best listened to start to finish, and it still holds up today. 5 stars

Eleanor rigby is an all timer

Amazing array of sounds

9/10

4.5/5 Stars Top Songs: Got to Get You In My Life, Eleanor Rigby, I'm Only Sleeping

*Probably my favorite Beatles album *Eleanor Rigby is a fantastic song

Possibly the best beatles album. From 1965 all of the beatles albums are 5 star classics though. Eleanor rigby is beautifully sang with mournful lyrics. Im only sleeping is lennon with a dreamy delivery and funny to boot, harrisons guitar playing is amazing on this song. Here there and everywhere is the wedding songs to top all wedding songs, incredibly moving. She said she said still sounds contemporary 60 years on. Good day sunshine veers slightly into vaudeville but the hook brings it back. For no one could soundtrack any brit film, its an outstanding work of art. The album is rounded off with tomorrow never knows which is the psychedelic song above all others. This is bubbling with ideas and genius.

All timer of an album. love the tunes

Not only my personal favorite Beatles album, but one of my favorite albums of all time. So many good songs here and it's really the transition point from their early sound to what the later albums would represent. The eastern influences and sitar starting to pop up, the more complex orchestration (Eleanor Rigby stands on its own here, one of my favorite songs ever, but even Yellow Submarine starts to hint at the the horns that would really flesh out on Sgt Peppers), the impeccable guitar work on And Your Bird Can Sing, just awesome from start to finish. Tomorrow Never Knows is such a great closer, second maybe only to A Day in the Life in terms of album closers. Impeccable songcraft throughout and a masterpiece in my opinion.

Stands the test of time regarding artistry, musical arrangements & vocals, song writing - a wonderful listening experience.

I mean. It's great. What else can be said.

Duh.

Always a favorite and a good time!

Marks the historic shift from touring to pure studio experimentation. "Taxman" attacks the 95% UK tax rate for the wealthy ("1 for you, 19 for me"). "Tomorrow Never Knows" pioneered sampling and electronic music using manual tape loops. "Eleanor Rigby" uses a double string quartet instead of rock instruments.

Undeniable

One of the classics.

Hitazo tras hitazo. Y cuando llega alguna canción no tan conocida como el resto (vaya, todas son exitosísimas, pero hay algunas que no han sonado tanto como, digamos, Yellow Submarine o Eleanor Rigby), resulta un genial descubrimiento (o redescubrimiento). Un disco genial, para pasársela increíble y una vez más, no poder creer lo geniales que fueron los Beatles.

What can I write that we haven’t already read. Essential Beatles LP.

Hier hou ik van. Met plezier geluisterd.

Dat noem ik een klassieker. Alles is nog steeds terug te horen in muziek hierna.

The amazing thing about the Beatles is how varied the music is and often the topics. Who writes music about a tax collector? Maybe the most interesting part about them is how much they appealed to the unwashed masses. Gives me hope for humanity.

Easiest 5 stars I’ve given so far

I was w a friend most of the day 👯‍♀️ so I'm on second listen a lil later! But it's tea 🫖 asf !

This would probably be a perfect album if not for "Yellow Submarine" lol. And that song is not bad! It just doesn't fit at all. "Eleanor Rigby" remains one of the greatest songs of all time, 59 years later. I only learned recently that the guitar solo in "Taxman" was performed by Paul. "And Your Bird Can Sing" is one of the most "how have I never heard this song before" songs the Beatles have. It's one of my favorites. This is such a great album.

Date gen: 22nd dec 2025 ( carried from the 21st ) Time gen: 2:14am Initial vibes: Very good Tracks:14 Length:35 mins 1. Taxman What a strange way to kick off the album but I’m not complaining. There’s a catchy tune and I’d listen to it again 7/10💜🧡 2.Elenor Rigby I’ve listen to this song before and I initially wasn’t a fan but it’s really grown on me. I really like the strings in the back, it gives it a darker feel compared to most of the Beatles other works. It also tells a story and that’s one of my favourite things in music, when a peace tells a story, it makes it seem more real, like it has a connection and it makes me appreciate the piece so much more! 8.7/10 💜💙🤍 3. I’m only sleeping It’s calm, and I like that. I will definitely be listening to it again. You can definitely sway to it and I like that 7.7/10💚 4. Love you to It was definitely a strange thing to listen to at 2am, actually I think that it’d be weird to listen to at any time of day. It’s got a nice tune but it’s definitely not my favourite out of what I’ve heard on the also far. Can’t be as bad as wild honey pie though 😰 5.9/10💜 5. Here, there and everywhere Oh right of the bat I felt calm. I really don’t know why I don’t listen to this song more because I love it so much. I was crying when listening to it because of how peaceful and calm it sounds. It just puts me at ease and I really like that. Such a beautiful song 9/10 💚💙🤍 6. Yellow submarine RAHHHH I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG. I adore the upbeat tempo and just the vibes all around. I am constantly catching my self singing this because of how catchy it is. Also ringo is the main vocalist on this song and that makes it 100 times better 10/10💛🧡 7. She said she said Ohh this might be a new favourite song of mine. Right off of the bat I knew I was going to like it. This will definitely be listened to on the daily 8/10 💛💚 8. Good day sunshine Very happy vibes. I was grinning the entire way through this song. I don’t have much to say other than this will definitely be getting added to happy 7/10💛 9. And your bird can sing Very good aswell. I love whatever went through the Beatles minds when singing/ writing this. This is DEFINITELY Getting added to my playlist. 7.6/10 💛🧡 10. For no one I love love LOVE sad love songs they make me feel something. Not only do I love songs like this, this is definitely my favourite one music wise like I don’t have a single complaint 9/10 💙💚🤍 11. Doctor Robert Right so we’ve drifted back into the strange category again but I’m still not complaining. It’s definitely interesting and I enjoy it I just don’t know if I would listen to it outside of the album. I’ll have to report back 6/10💜 12. I want to tell you It’s nice but it doesn’t particularly stand out to me. Just kind of like your average run of the mill song. It’s nice but like Doctor Robert I don’t know if I would listen to it outside of the album 6/10 💛 13. Got to get you into my life It’s nice, stands out more than the last one but again nothing really that special 6.8/10💛 14. Tomorrow never knows I’m kind of disturbed but in a cool way. Would probs appreciate more if it wasn’t 2am. I’m highkey scared shitless rn. It’s my least favourite by a long shot which is disappointing because I was enjoying the album sm 😔 I’ll just pretend like it doesn’t exist 2.3/10 🖤 After listening: It’s a very good album and I would definitely recommend. Half of the album sounds like it comes straight out of MMMM by Tally Hall and it’s kinda nostalgic in a way 1st: Yellow Submarine 2nd: For No One/ Here there and everywhere 3rd: She Said She Said Last: Tomorrow never knows Album #1 🥳 Very happy that I got the Beatles what a great way to kick off this new project

I already own this xx

the best beatles album

𝘙𝘦𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘳 is the moment the Beatles stopped being just a great pop band and became something stranger, sharper, and genuinely boundary-pushing. What strikes me most is how casually they mix brilliant pop songwriting with ideas that shouldn’t work together — and somehow do. The songs jump in every direction: a taxman rant, the lonely world of Eleanor Rigby, a cheerful yellow submarine, sunshine optimism, a singing bird, and even a doctor named Robert. It shouldn’t feel cohesive, but the band is so locked into its creative peak that everything fits. John, Paul, George, and Ringo sound fearless here, each track its own little world. And then there’s 𝘛𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘸 𝘕𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘒𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘴, which still feels like a transmission from the future — tape loops, drones, and a vocal that sounds more like a mantra than a pop melody. It’s probably the most experimental thing they had ever recorded up to that point, and it blows the album wide open. Even the cover matters: Klaus Voormann’s collage, tied to their early Hamburg days, feels like the perfect visual counterpart — playful but surreal, grounded but already drifting toward psychedelia. For me, 𝘙𝘦𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘳 works because it captures both sides of the Beatles at once: the perfect pop craftsmen and the restless experimenters. It’s witty, curious, tuneful, and bold — and easily one of their finest albums.

🖤love

the Turn!

I mean it’s the Beatles. Enough said. My rating 4.8

An absolute classic possibly my favourite Beatles album, but I could say that about 2/3

Quite possibly my favorite Beatles record.

One of my all time favourites

Starting with a banger. Just waiting until I can lock in those 5-stars.

I guess all the albums get five stars, but this one was evolutionary...the beginning of the transformation from the Fab Four to something else.

Greatest beatles album hands down

Nicee

Not a single bad song on here, and the recent remaster greatly improves the mix. One of the best Beatles albums

Great! I love The Beatles. For No One and Here, There, and Everywhere are two of my favorite Beatles songs. I love a lot more on this album though.

5 Stars, amazing album.

The acid has hit. The lads from Liverpool have contemplated their mortality. John sneers, Paul sighs, Ringo grins, and George writes underrated bangers. A cornerstone of modern experimental music; it hits from all directions and never slows down. This must've blown some minds wide open back in '66.

The album where the Beatles collectively said, “What if we stopped being cute and started bending reality?” Rating: 5/5 Short Review: A kaleidoscope disguised as a pop record. Revolver is psychedelic, punchy, playful, innovative, and weird in the best “my brain is expanding against my will” kind of way. It’s the sound of four guys discovering studio magic and immediately using it for mischief. Favorite Track: I’m Only Sleeping Because it’s dreamy, lazy, existential, and feels exactly like you on a Sunday morning after a long run, staring at your ceiling pretending to contemplate life.

À classic

Ka-BLAM! my favorite Beatles album? This and Sgt. Pepper. Got to get you .. Good day sunshine! I'm only sleeping, Eleonor Rigby. Dr Robert, Taxman! I use that to teach 1st conditionals in ESL class. Sheer musical genius and mastery, Every single song is AWESOME - 60yrs later. Why they are the GOATs.

First off - this mix is ridiculous. Roaring out of the gate with Taxman. Then full Paul with Eleanor Rigby. I'm Only Sleeping alludes to shoegaze. Here there everywhere - that crazy guitar key change saves from potential smaltz and the transition into... yellow submarine. I love urging the crowd on in the channel. Such a joyous place that you don't want to leave in the midst of the slow fade. To switch gears the the board strokes... this is a transition that's better than what happened on either side. The harmonies of old are still there but the music and so writing is refracted. John wins the record. Probably the last one? There are some many amazing sonic flourishes. The knockout is Tomorrow Never Knows. So often "sounds" don't age well. This is simply untouchable. And The Mono version is like sticking your finger in an electric socket. It will make your hair stand on end. And lastly - Rain. From the same sessions. Doesn't get any better.

An embarrassment of riches, embracing so many types of music from one track to the next: guitar hero rock, string quartet pop, twee pop, Indian drone, 50s doo-wop ballad, and a sea shanty (just to name the first six tunes). Tomorrow Never Knows is the first, and still the best, trip hop song. One of the greatest album covers ever.

In my view, "Revolver" marks a masterclass in songwriting and studio craft, showing The Beatles at a moment when curiosity, confidence, and imagination aligned perfectly. For some reason, I haven't posted my favorite songs, but here they go: “Eleanor Rigby” - storytelling on loneliness backed by classical arrangements. “Tomorrow Never Knows”- This song opened the boundaries of conventional song structure with its tape loops, hypnotic drone, and spiritual lyrics. “Here, There and Everywhere” What else can I say? Revolver captures the Beatles eager to explore the unexplored. 5/5

It’s an all-time classic album for many reasons and you know it.

Such an amazing album overall. Not much can be said about it. Nearly every song is a banger and a lot of my personal favorites like Got To Get You Into My Life and Yellow Submarine are on here.

My first Beatles album on the list. A classic.

Decided not to write a long review for 'Revolver'. It's 'Revolver', after all.

high 5 this album has ruined my rating system. ziggy stardust is obviously a full marks album so deserves the highest rating. this album is beyond full marks. its like when hermione granger received a hundred and twelve per cent on her charms exam. some people ( including paul ) say george didnt get going as a songwriter until abbey road. this album ( and rubber soul ) reveal that as rubbish. its said he lost interest in the beatles around the time of sgt pepper, but here he delivers 2 all time bangers and "i want to tell" you as a little 9/10 bonus. this album has the best opening 5 tracks of any and two of them are from george. "love you to" is his best indian inspired track. it bangs. its the best beatles album and the best album of all time. its a true beatles album: "a hard days night" is johns album, "sgt pepper" is pauls album, "abbey road" has "maxwells silver hammer" on it. the 3 writers are equal on here ( george slightly less equal ), and the reason so many of the tracks bang so hard is ringos unreal performances with a great drum sound. its summed up by the cover ( the best album cover ) where all their faces are big and the same size. heres where they transformed from a band to a super group. like all beatles albums this one has its dud track, but in recent years ive learnt to love yellow submarine. ever since reading about the recording session where they invited all their friends round to do the sound effects, blowing bubbles in the bath etc, it always brings a smile to my face. its a joke song and a pretty funny one too. who doesnt like a bit of fun.

B2B2b

Perfection. Damn it sounds so good. And I know it will sound like hyperbole, but anyway: one of the high water marks of 20th Century art and culture.

i like hearing how the 4 of them are clearly diverging into their own musical preferences—mccartney’s songs are so different from harrison’s are so different from lennon’s now (and yellow submarine is in there too for what it’s worth)

Sensational stuff. I can’t even justify knocking a star off for the silliness of Yellow Sub. There’s too much good stuff here, especially the last track ‘Tomorrow Never Knows’

Brilliant album. It has some very early experimentation going on with the backward guitars. It' would be pointless and also a very long list to mention even a small amount of bands who would cite this as an influence. But suffice to say, this was part of the origins of alternative rock/ Indie. Apart form the cringe worthy 'Yellow Submarine' (but it still is a classic), this has some of their best work.

Still not even my third favorite Beatles

An all time classic. Revolver has outstanding songs that are varied, experimental, playful, and yet restrained. These are tight compositions and each one has its particular place in this album. The songs are evocative character studies, sometimes in the third person, sometimes in the first person, and sometimes they paint a picture of a whole town’s worth of people. The arrangements are sublime. A phenomenal piece of art. 5.

A classic. So many good songs here.

These guys were on to something

masterpiece

Great

I felt like I had been getting gas lit by the Beetles fan boys for so long. All I ever head was this was the greatest band of all time, this band revolutionized music, and all I ever heard was 60’s pop bullshit. This was the first album I actually heard it on. This album doesn’t quite live up to the behemoth hype surrounding this group, but with any other band this is and easy five, so I have to be fair here.

The fab four at their creative peak banging out tune after tune. Eleanor rigby is a classic and I'm only sleeping and good day sunshine are underrated gems. Only weaker track is Dr Robert which is a bit of a nothing song but kinda catchy still

My FAVORITE Beatles album. I feel like it's criminally underrated when compared to the albums that follow. (and I understand that) An absolute amazing turning point in their music, so good.

I used to think the Beatles were overrated. I also used to be hella stupid
