Reviews (page 8 of 15)

Following Rubber Soul, their transformation is refined and almost complete transitioning into their psychedelic phase. Rubber Soul put a focus on folk songwriting and featured forays by Harrison into raga and Starr into country. Here the songs experiment with what their high studio efforts are capable of. Here we have 14 perfect tracks in the span of just 35 minutes. Not a single track is more than 3 minutes, and yet they all feel complete and satisfying. I've listened to this album dozens of times and yet I've never felt the need to extend any of them, nor drop any either. "Taxman" can be seen as a precursor to New Wave-style music (without synths of course). "Eleanor Rigby" is among the most influential track here and stands as a landmark in baroque pop, certainly the best-sounding of its era. "Here There and Everywhere" and "Tomorrow Never Knows" perfect Harrison's raga, and are my favorite Beatles raga songs after Sgt Pepper's "Within You Without You." The psychedelic tracks are by far the most interesting. It's crazy how psychedelic pop was limited at the time to Pet Sounds and 5th Dimension yet they come up with the dream-like "I'm Only Sleeping" or "She Said She Said." I just can't see the natural progression. "And Your Bird Can Sing" is a personal favorite of mine, so short and cheery I just have to sing along every time. "Doctor Robert" is the only weak track I couldn't say much about but I still sing along to it and adore Lennon's vocals. My only complaint is that "Tomorrow Never Knows" should have been the first track to make for the perfect opener and closer ("Got to Get You Into My Life"), but obviously I understand why they didn't.

Sublime. 6 stars.

When I started reading music magazines and criticism in the early 2000s, Revolver would be usually listed as the best Beatles album, and usually best album overall of all time. I think I still consider this my favourite Beatles album, but I’ll be listening to the rest of them during the list so I’ll follow up. Really interesting now with the changing tastes in popular music criticism that I don’t think Revolver would be in the top 20 albums list in Rolling Stone. Further, that they would likely list something like Help! or Hard Days Night as their best. I think the notion was in the early 2000s that music that was difficult, non-populist was automatically graded better as the more straightforward, crowd pleasing fare. Revolver is by no means a difficult album. It has Yellow Submarine on it for Gods sake. The deal is though that this is really when the Beatles started exploring what they could do beyond the confines of a record that would translate to being played live on tour. I also realized listening to this today for the first time in like 10 years that this record was so much more influential during the Britpop and post Britpop UK rock music. Oasis obviously, but as well as Kasabian, Coldplay and Keane. Now if younger artists are ribbing anything from the Beatles it’s likely from their first few albums. Crazy how the circle of influence from one band continues going. In another 20 years Revolver will once again sit in the highest esteem of the Beatles output and likely at the top of the Rolling Stone album list. For now though we can enjoy this for what it is, a amazing constructed collection of songs from a band that is going in different directions and succeeding because of it.

Superb

Tää on meikän lemppari the Beatlesilta. Tarpeeks monimuotosta ja tyylikästä. Maniavaihe on selätetty ja ollaan jo bändinä aikuisempia - hippejä, ja vitun kokeilevii siis toki koko levy käytännössä jatkuvaa muutosta. Studiotyöskentely myös aika mintissä koska tää kuulostaa helkkarin hyvältä. 5/5

Napakoita, vaihtelevia ja ennen kaikkea hyviä kappaleita. mitäpä sitä sen enempää satuilemaan, 5/5.

Dispensa comentários, curto há muito

treng vel ikkje sei så mykje her

Revolver? I barely know her! 5 stars for both this album and that joke. Both classics.

Yes. One of my favorite albums.

When I was younger, I had the "red" and "blue" albums. Pretty much the greatest "hits" of the Beatles. This still had a bit of the whimsy of the earlier albums, but something was definitely looming, something big. The songs still hold up (although I could go the rest of my life never hearing "Yellow Submarine" again) for me, unlike a lot of the other albums we have heard. I can't imagine what it was like to hear this when it was first released, thinking "what IS this? How did they do all of these songs like this?" It's just so varied, but nothing really misses. "Got To Get You Into My Life" is one of my favorites. Those horns come in and, man! I just get this big grin on my face every time. Such a great album.

Great album. Eleanor Rigby is one of my favorite Beatles songs of all time - the musical arrangement and the lyrics. Which brings me to two points. One, people (particularly those in the US at the time) need to get over themselves - can't believe how little airtime this song got because of people's religious views. And two, related to one, it is astounding that this is not a diamond album yet Kid Rock's Devil Without a Cause is. I guess at least people stopped being so uppity on that one. Back to Revolver. I love the different instruments and techniques on this album - especially the Indian-inspired work on Love You To and Tomorrow Never Knows. Also a big fan of the softer songs - Here, There and Everywhere, For No One - sweet and beautiful. Which takes nothing away from the more up tempo songs - Taxman, Good Day Sunshine, Got to Get You into My Life - also fantastic for their fun and energy. No matter the style, they really nail it on this album.

I’m almost afraid to write this review. What can I write about one of the greatest albums of all time that hasn’t already been written and written by much better writers than myself? It’s been decades since I first heard the album, and it still sounds fresh every time I listen to it. I just took a Beatles class this summer (yes, they have those now) and you would think I’d be tired of them after a 6-week deep dive but I’m not. The song “Tomorrow Never Knows” still blows my mind. It’s one of my favorite Beatles songs and I can’t for the life of me figure out how this song it was recorded in 1966 on such primitive equipment by today’s standards. I am fortunate enough to have both the mono and stereo version of this album and they’re both interesting in their own way, but I like the mono mix for most of the tracks (except “Tomorrow Never Knows”). The stereo at the time was simplistically done and some of the instruments that should be further up in the mix (such as the guitar in Taxman) gets a little buried in the stereo version. I could go on about each of the tracks and bore the living hell out of all of you who are reading this, but I’ll just say that both versions get 5 stars.

Easy 5 - a perfect album. Although it's commonly viewed these days as one of the best albums of all time, it's not my favorite Beatles album (behind Sgt Pepper and Abbey Road for me). But it's still perfect start to finish. Favorite tracks: Eleanor Rigby, Taxman, Tomorrow Never Knows.

Meilenstein-Album!

I don't think I need to explain this album to anyone. It's an absolute masterpiece, whether you like the Beatles or not. And it would be a 10/10 album if Yellow Submarine wasn't on here. Now it's a 9/10. Taxman is also one of the best songs Harrison ever wrote. The tempo, the bassline, the extra cowbell, the sneering lyrics, the guitar solo. It's nigh on perfect.

Was ready to give this a 4 until I heard the last track.

Absolute masterpiece. The first Beatles record I listened to where I finally \"got\" it as a teenager. Elanor Rigby is in my top 5 Beatles songs to this day.

An obvious all time classic. I have to get some sort of physical copy of this though, since the remasters available on Spotify are truly awful.

post drugs beatles. even the songs that you initially can't be arsed with you suddenly remember are quite good.

Try and stop me having a wank in the shower about this. I dare you. Yes, YOU! Come and watch me, you dirty little pervert.

I could write a massive 8 paragraph review of each song if you like, but i think people have heard this album before and there's loads of reviews out there, so why waste everyone's time?

A fantastic album! It's not my favourite iteration of the Beatles, but damn you hear so much innovation on this record. They are sowing major seeds of influence here that countless acts have been reaping for over 50 years now. I do love that we're treated to George's vocals right off the hop, on the very first track, Taxman. He's my favourite Beatle, he was the very best one, it's indisputable, and I just love listening to him sing. Just incredibly influential and an impressive display from masters at the top of their game.

Classic. I actually like Rubber Soul better as an album, but Revolver has some of the best Beatles songs.

One of the best albums of all time, Eleanor Rigby changes what a pop song could be, For No One and Here, There and Everywhere are masterpieces of arranging, and Tomorrow Never Knows is a game changer in cultural terms. Everyone knows it. Yellow Submarine isn't very good tho.

Excellent album from start to finish. Tons of well known songs. 9/10

Part of the peak before their baroque period. My favorite album of the Beatles.

one of the best of all time

Best band forever. First album cover with no band name on it. Interested in Taxman song, because it is not talking about love. "Taxman" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1966 album Revolver. Written by the group's lead guitarist, George Harrison, with some lyrical assistance from John Lennon, it protests against the higher level of progressive tax imposed in the United Kingdom by the Labour government of Harold Wilson, which saw the Beatles paying over 90 per cent of their earnings to the Treasury. The song was selected as the album's opening track and contributed to Harrison's emergence as a songwriter beside the dominant Lennon–McCartney partnership. It was the group's first topical song and the first political statement they had made in their music.

Этот Револьвер способен "выстрелить" даже в самый худший день зарядом песен на все времена. Чего только стоят Eleanor Rigby и For No One! 9 из 10.

Kind of a hodge-podge of styles and it's quite short for an album with so many songs, so I could nit-pick and dock this a star but there's way too many incredible songs for me to give this any less than 5 stars.

Great album, love the Beatles

My favourite Beatles album (it's back and forth between this and Rubber Soul).

I mean...it's Revolver. Possibly my favourite of all The Beatles Work. Although I do endlessly love Abbey Road Medley.

My favorite Beatles album. A classic.

The best Beatles album. The tightest of the psychedelic era.

Wonderful, fantastic, love it!

Sublimely entertaining.

For me, this is The Beatles’ best album. Their early stuff is great with the harmonies and simple but catchy tunes, then they released Rubber Soul and you got a hint that they were evolving into much more than just a pop band, and then Revolver came out and blew everyone away with the new ground that it broke. With Tomorrow Never Knows, She Said She Said, I’m Only Sleeping, and And Your Bird Can Sing, it’s a really strong album for John. Paul’s contributions to the album are a bit more mainstream but some of his strongest work as well, especially Here, There and Everywhere. George brings a couple of solid tunes as well with Taxman and I Want to Tell You (not so much with Love You To though - the album’s only miss really). It’s eclectic, and the songs just jump off the vinyl. They did great work after this of course, but Revolver was the transition point. 5 stars.

Tunes.

Discazo

Seems like an instant classic! Fresh ideas 45+ years later and clearly influential.

Sólo por tener a Eleanor Rigby se merece de menos 3 estrellas pero no, no es lo único excelente del disco. 14 canciones repartidas en 34 minutos y aún así son piezas bien redondeadas. Sin ser el más fan ni mucho menos un experto, creo que es un disco de transición entre el sonido inicial con el de la psicodelia porque no están mezclados, sino que están presentes en algunas canciones de manera independiente. Creo que ningún disco me había provocado clavarme y poner uno tras otro y éste sí lo logró. 4.5 estrellas que suben a 5 por esta razón. Songs: Eleanor Rigby, Got To Get You Into My Life, I´m Only Sleeping, For No One

Por mucho tiempo (y quizá aún) Revolver fue mi álbum favorito de los Beatles: las razones abundan, pero una de las más importantes es que es un disco que me ofrece un poco de todo: cursilerías de McCartney, cosas oscuras de Lennon, las primeras composiciones 100% de Harrison, a Ringo cantando algo sacado de un viaje de LSD, instrumentación occidental y oriental, tracks en reversa, todo. Una de las características que lo hacen especial es que ya tenían tomada la decisión de no volver a hacer giras y eso le da a George Martin todo el espacio para igual tener en el estudio un octeto de cuerdas (¡como único acompañamiento de una canción de "Rock"!), un oboe, un corno francés, o de grabar las guitarras y luego meterlas a la mezcla final en reversa. Tratando de dilucidar cuál rola es mi favorita de este disco, llego a la conclusión de que es más fácil ubicar las dos que menos me gustan: "Yellow Submarine", que de cualquier forma tiene su ondita y es divertida de oír como pieza individual; y "I Want To Tell You", que siento como la menos interesante del disco, musicalmente hablando. Pero es que ahí están "For No One", "Good Day Sunshine" (que por cierto fue rankeada como la peor de ellos en cierto conteo), "And Your Bird Can Sing" y la cereza del pastel que es "Got To Get You Into My Life". No hay como aburrirse con este disco.

Amazing album!

A classic. Their, arguably, best song "Eleanor Rigby" is accompanied only by a string quartet. That's some feat to pull off.

Fantastic, Eleanor Rigby is a tune and yellow submarine reminds me of being 10 singing it a at school

I’ve always found The Beatles to be pretty alright, but I’ve never been able to check into the degree of hype and mystique around them (the most interested I’ve ever been in them is a documentary that came across PBS once that was getting into all the studio techniques they’d used to produce the Sgt Pepper album, like the craft end of things was just more compelling to me than the album’s actual music). All that said, I really like Revolver, kind of marks the beginning of the Beatles era that I find more interesting (lol drugs).

Incredible collection of songs, love this transition period between "old school" Beatles and what they would become from Sgt. Pepper on. Also, includes perhaps the best Ringo song in Yellow Submarine.

Perfection. Even yellow submarine.

Absolutely fantastic

Easily the best Beatles album. Might be my favorite album of all time. Their best mixture of brilliant songwriting and interesting experimentation. 10/10 1. Eleanor Rigby 2. I'm Only Sleeping 3. For No One

A true classic. The Beatles at their prime, in my opinion, mixing the best from the early and the late era of the band.

Maybe the best one by the Beatles. A collection of solid and tight rock songs here. Before they included more experimental elements.

Along with Abbey Road and maybe Rubber Soul, I consider Revolver one of my favourite Beatles's albums. There's so much going on with a wide range of styles and an increased contribution from all the members. The Beatle's sound was rapidly evolving and after this album, the band settled into the studio and continued to expand and innovate their sound. This has a few hits (Taxman, Eleanor Rigby and Yellow Sub), but really it's a collection of lower key classics that makes this a very solid listen.

When Beatles went pro.

Tiene rolas de diez y unas de dos tres, pero promedia alto.

Only my second 5*. But it’s brilliant, an album I’ve always loved, and has my favourite Beatles song on (‘Here, There and Everywhere’)

I do find the mixes for the beatles kind of weird with headphones where the L/R audio is totally wack

Yeah the Beatles were pretty good, not gonna lie. Eleanor Rigby is probably my favorite song of theirs, but this album also has some other bangers like "Taxman", "Love You To", "Tomorrow Never Knows" and basically every other song (except Yellow Submarine). Gotta love that sitar. I'd be the first one to jump on the "Beatles are overrated" train (or submarine?), but that doesn't mean they weren't amazingly talented musicians. I have to give this a 5/5 or I'm being too strict with these ratings.

Uff tremendo pedazo de arte 5/5

I love the cover. Some classic songs. My favourite was Tomorrow Never Knows.

yeah pretty good

"Eleanor Rigby" was one of the first Beatles songs I heard. "She Said She Said" and "Here, There, and Everywhere" are two of my top favorite Beatles songs of all time. The sounds here are just the perfect blend of innovative and familiar. I get a sense of nostalgia listening to this record even though I was born in the 1990s. :)

Classic, hard to argue with their anthology.

Its always great to get a Beatles isn't it? Obviously this is an incredibly accomplished album, but in the spirit of saving the 5*s for the hard hitters, this isn't my fave Beatles album. So is it a 4... hmm. I love how varied their style is in this, some classic rock, some more alt songs and then some that are a little twee. Ah fuck it its a 5

Top 3 Beatles albums for me. Good day sunshine and Eleanor Rigby are absolute tunes. And the Sitar on Love you to is incredible

one of the truly great albums of all time. Maybe the first 'rock as high art' masterpieces.

My favorite album from The Beatles. I still remember the first time I listened to Eleanor Rigby when I was a kid. It is a masterpiece that changed what was considered pop music. All excellent tracks - no filler at all. Even Yellow Submarine flows perfectly while listening the entire record. Happy to live a life where this exists.

“This is a brilliant album which underlines once and for all that the Beatles have definitely broken the bounds of what we used to call pop.”

classic

Probably the third best Beatles album. That's very high praise, indeed.

It's hard not to love this one, it's so raw and powerful.

Classic

One of the most important pieces of art in the history of mankind.

A CLASIC

It's not my favourite Beatles album, but the hallmarks of quality still shine throughout

I'd say it's perfect if not for the Yellow Submarine... otherwise it's an amazing album that only cemented The Beatles' status as the best band of their time.

Phenomenal. Good mix of beginning Beatles and old Beatles.

I had never actually listened to a Beatles album from beginning to end, though I've heard a lot of their songs many times. But I really enjoyed this album. It flows really well and I liked the songs I hadn't heard before.

There have been times where this album moves into my number 1 Beatles album, but the White Album usually wins out. This thing is another perfect album on the list. What else is there to say about this album. Just awesome songwriting, musicianship, performances, and creativity. I've heard it tons of times all the way through, but I never tire of it. Even the album cover is magical.

one of their best album

Just brilliant. One of the best albums ever.

Favorite Beatles Album. Perfection!

Possibly my favorite album of their's.

Classic

A classic :) My Favorites off this album are I'm Only Sleeping, Here There and Everywhere, And Your Bird Can Sing, and I Want to Tell You.

I enjoyed this album of the Beatles. That does not surprise me.

Had not listened to this before, but had heard about half the songs previously. It has a great album cover! My favorite song on this album, and possibly of the Beatles, is "Eleanor Rigby." I read on the Wikipedia page that the string octet was inspired by the soundtrack to PSYCHO. I love that soundtrack so I guess it isn't such a surprise I love this song. I also already loved the songs "Taxman," "Here, There and Everywhere," "Yellow Submarine," "Good Day Sunshine," "And Your Bird Can Sing" and "Got To Get You Into My Life" (which rivals Eleanor Rigby for my favorite Beatles song). The rest of the album was new and I liked them on first listen. Probably my favorite of the new songs were "Doctor Robert." The song seems to imply this doctor might not be completely on the level... "For No One" stood out to me. I also found "Tomorrow Never Knows" to be an amazing end to the album. I love its epic psychedelic structure. It's easy to see why this was such an important and beloved album. It overflows with musical ideas and packs a huge punch for its relatively short runtime.

One of my favorite Beatles albums, if only Yellow Submarine had remained on the cutting room floor might be a 6 🌟

If asked to write down all the Beatles' albums from memory, I'd forget Revolver. Which I know, because I forgot it until it showed up on my list. It's great: musically, lyrically, production quality. Even the experimental pieces are approachable - which, for me, is often a reason I skip a Beatles song. Like all of their albums, Revolver is already part of my collection. It should be in yours, too.

El mejor album de la historia!

Amazing. Top to bottom.

Brilliant. The breadth of musical exploration in one album is unbelievable.

Another album by the Liverpool band The Beatles. Maybe you heard of them before. Many great songs. Some consider this their best (not me). "And Your Bird Can Sing" and "Eleanor Rigby" are two of their classics. "Yellow Submarine" is not one of my favorites, but reminds me of the version of the german artist Klaus Beyer ("Gelben Unterwasserboot") and makes me very happy anyway.

Revolver is a band at the peak of their powers as a collective but also as individuals, where everything is in balance. The result is a pop/rock album of seismic proportions covering all sorts of musical ideas, stylistic ground and psychedelia. It’s edgy, thrilling and dangerous and it’s close to, if not the Beatles best.

Already listened to this one while going through Rolling Stones top 100 albums of all time a few years ago before they did the recent update. It's great, but I still like the Beach Boys better than the Beatles 🤷🏾‍♀️

I really enjoyed listening to this album. My favourites are Eleanor Rigby, Here, There and Everywhere, I'm Only Sleeping and Tomorrow Never Knows. 5/5 stars.

Simply put it’s the best Beatles album and should be classified as one of, if not the greatest album ever made. Words can’t do this album justice, it’s a magnificent piece of work that should be remembered for eternity

What more can be said about this? An absolute classic.

When I made the return to Vinyl from my journey through the tape, CD, MP3 and streaming this was the first album I bought. Originally I listened to this as a kid on my Dad's copy which was well worn by the time I got hold of it. I was surprised how much the pops, crackles, little jumps etc were etched in my brain. Almost 40 years later and my new copy didn't have any of these, still sounded awesome. I feel for anyone who hasn't had that analogue experience. Don't get me wrong the pure unadulterated digital has its place as well. A classic all the way, even those that doubt Yellow Submarine, I was 5 when I first listed and that was my fav and got me hooked don't forget that the Beatles are a band for all time and all people.

Its definitely 5 stars, I would be lying to myself if it was any lower. But at the same time a couple of the songs can be annoying at times. I actually enjoy Yellow Submarine which is contrary to other reviews on this site, but I need to be in a really good mood to enjoy Good Day Sunshine, otherwise its a straight skip. Same story with Dr. Robert, who's backstory is way more interesting than the song itself. That being said, the 5 stars is warrant because I love half the songs to death and enjoy the rest. I particularly love Tomorrow Never Knows instrumentation and sonic sound. Also there's 3 songs from George which is fantastic as he's my favourite Beatle. On a side note, the album cover is their best, even better than Sgt. Pepper. I feel like all but one or two Beatles albums on this list will be 5 stars. It's kind of annoying at times they're too good. Then again if you've sold the most records in history, what else do you expect.

An obvious one. One of the greatest albums ever. Stereo version still sounds kind of funny on headphones - need to check out Mono version again.

All these songs are great (what's with the Yellow Submarine hate?), but the standouts are Eleanor Rigby (haunting lyrics, simple yet effective), I'm Only Sleeping (psychedelic rock groove), Here, There, and Everywhere (an amazingly beautiful and refreshing love song), Got to Get You Into My Life (a super catchy tune), and Tomorrow Never Knows (the psychedelic piece de resistance). I guess my only "complaint" would be that Paperback Writer and Rain, two great songs from the Revolver sessions that were released as a single a few months before Revolver, aren't on the album but this is understandable since it was typical Beatles practice to not include single songs on the album.

When i first got really into the Beatles, i couldn't get into this album. I've since come around, but there are still some real stinkers on here. "Dr. Robert" might be the worst Beatles song. I almost demoted this to 4 stars just because of that song

Ive heard this album realistically at least 100 times in my life, and today, listening in my noise canceling headphones, is the first time I’ve noticed the yawning in “I’m Only Sleeping” and the clapping in “And Your Bird Can Sing.” Music!

What hit me upon this return to Revolver is the textural variety the Beatles aim for across the album as a whole. By this point their songcraft is rock solid, so it’s a case of seeing what else they can add, or how they can twist it: the pulsing strings of Eleanor Rigby, the swirling pseudo-Indian She Said She Said, the bursting sunshine horns of Got to Get you into my Life. These embellishments are thrown into sharp relief by reverting back to the guitar,guitar, bass, drums and harmonies of the classic sound, which underpins the whole record. In this context of experiment with sonic texture even the sore thumb of Yellow Submarine doesn’t stick out quite so much.

The best

One of my favorite Beatles albums, if only Yellow Submarine had remained on the cutting room floor might be a 6 5 🌟

Many of my favs on this album!

Obvious classic and maybe my favorite Beatles record

Yes yes, as if this album hasn't been reviewed 3 million times already...ok ok ok top 10 album of all-time, highly influential, etc etc. I don't think any Beatles album is anything less than interesting, even their (to me) very dated earliest material - this is where they started to get experimental, which is probably why as a little kid listening to some of these songs scared me a bit (musically the sitar freaked me out a bit; lyrically "Eleanor Rigby" especially was a trip - 'keeps her face in a jar' - the metaphor was way over my head). But...scary music sticks with you. Honestly, a few of the songs kind of bore me ("I'm Only Sleeping" and "Love You To") - but the best here are among the best songs....ever? "Good Day Sunshine" and "Got to Get You Into My Life" in particular are worthy of their fame. For me they got even better after this, but this is the true genesis of them steering away from their 50s influences (perhaps excepting "Here, There and Everywhere") and becoming the "weird Beatles" - which is my preference. 9/10 5 stars

I mean, what more can be said. Just one of the greatest of all time.

I mean. Come on. This record. Hoooooooo boy. I've listened to all the Beatles studio albums so many times that I can hum the pitch of the first note of any song, based on hearing the end of the previous song in the track listing. Not a brag, just an indicator of how well I know these records. The Beatles are my favorite band and a lot of what I like about my other favorite bands can be traced back to something the Beatles did "first." I can't pick a favorite Beatles record (not for a lack of trying) and Revolver is in the group of their best that make the task impossible. This is also the record where their guitar tones got wild. I've always loved how thin and piercing the distorted guitars are on this record, and that continues with Sgt. Pepper and the White Album (not many guitars on Magical Mystery Tour). It took me a long time to get into other great 60s bands (The Kinks, Beach Boys, etc.) because I held them all to the standard that the Beatles set. No band produced such an consistently high level of quality through their entire career. 12 records in 6 years. That's all it was. Highlights: So hard to pick just a few, but...McCartney's lead guitar and noodle-y bass runs on "Taxman;" The story and strings on "Eleanor Rigby;" the perfectly-captured sleepiness on "I'm only sleeping;" the giant leap forward of "Tomorrow Never Knows."

Is this their best album? Maybe. The Beatles are cool. Even people who don't "like" the Beatles have to appreciate them. Those who say they don't at least appreciate them (or acknowledge their greatness) are just trying to be "different" or "cool" - but they aren't. Kickin' bass lines throughout this one Paul - way to go.

Stunning. The lyrics, the artistry, the variety, the production. A band unafraid to try new things but who take the fans with them. Taxman is a great rock track; Eleanor Rigby is a maudlin, poetic chamber pop track; I’m Only Sleeping a trippy, hippy sixties indie track; Tomorrow Never Knows experimental almost trip hop/dance Indian vibe… and it all works and sounds incredible. Perhaps the album that shows the world The Beatles as artists, making great works of art - more than just a great band. Side note- I nearly docked a star for the insufferable, anodyne, tiresome Yellow Submarine - but, hey, that would of been churlish of me!

Quite cool. It has some good songs. The Beatles are pretty good I guess but I don't know why everyone in the 60s was obsessed with them because they are not very good looking and their music is just like doo doo playing a nice tune. Bit overrated in my personal opinion. Like BTS but ugly and average

Finally, a Beatles album! And it's my second favorite one after the White Album

The Beatles at their best. 10.

Fantastic album. I need to listen to more individual Beatles records instead of the top played list.

No soy mucho de Beatles, pero me ha sorprendido para bien el disco y se me ha hecho corto.

Still unreal. Maybe the best Beatles album

Very listenable, complex and confident

Naturally, very familiar with this one as well already. Between “Rubber Soul” and “Revolver”, my dad educated me about the Beatles in my early teens. As such, both have special places in my heart, though if I had to choose between the two, I’d lean “Rubber Soul”. That is in no way any sort of indictment on “Revolver”. This album is also a stone-cold classic.

Tomorrow Never Knows. Without this song my entire musical journey would be totally different. The Chemical Brothers may never have existed without it. Plus Taxman, Eleanor Rugby's and the rest of the album... Just wonderful.

Classic

Yum, 4.5?

Classic album. Loved by me and everyone else.

An absolutely fantastic album jam packed with bops and classic songs. Not one dull spot on the whole thing and the Beatles experiment with sounds in such interesting ways while still keeping the songs fun and absolutely entertaining.

Perfection

The Beatles pushed music to where it is now. This album is undervalued.

Pretty cool. Definitely from a different time but i enjoyed it.

Esta cool, es el mejor disco de los beatles de esta epoca y siento yo que mas innovador respecto al sgt peppers

An album as inventive as it is accomplished. It’s hard to imagine a song more perfect than Eleanor Rigby, or more timeless than Tomorrow never knows. Countless bands imitated The Beatles sound, but none could replicate their songwriting.

fantastisch album

Everything about the production of this album is amazing. Taxman is a killer opener, with amazing buildup as tracks and the bassline are progressively added. So good!

Classic!

I like this for personal reasons, aand it's still a great album

Awesome album! Loved the documentary included with this album!

Yes yes yes. Putting on the LP buying list!

Possibly their first album of pure genius. Best Tracks: Eleanor Rigby, Got to Get You into My Life, Tomorrow Never Knows

Fantastic album, the best they made as a band in my opinion.

Double listen. The best

top ten album! every song is a classic.

I’m a basic bitch, but this is absolutely the best album by one of the greatest bands. 10/10 would listen again.

Love it. Uplifting and gentle feeling album. Strings in Eleanor Rigby Cool Sitar, can Hear a lot of FOTC inspiration.

I'd somehow forgotten how good this album was.

The ones I didn’t know so well sounded class. Plus the ones I do know are a couple of my faves Beatles songs. Kids love Yellow Submarine too. These guys will go far.

Que wow. Incredible stuff.

Probably in my top 5 ever. Easily the best Beatles album, even with Yellow Submarine

4.8 + Beatles in the pocket, pushing the envelope on pop sound with the discipline to not descend into self-indulgence.

Some believe the greatest album ever made.

So good. So much sitar!

adadad

Excellent album

Very instrumental. More songs I recognized than I thought I would. A dope anime intro I've always looked for was on this too. A chill album, good for background music while doing art or cleaning

This is not my favorite Beatles album but it does demonstrate the diversity of their artistic talent and how musical styles from other cultures can be incorporated but maybe not appropriated?

Masterpiece of the 60s that changed the course of popular music!

*sigh*. This is the most begrudging 5 stars I'm going to give. This is far from my favorite Beatles album, but it's the goddamn Beatles. Anything less than 5 is just straight up untrue.

Great, great album. Obviously a classic

Perfection. Nothing more need be said.

one of the best albums of all time. nuff said.

Pog up for the best and basic album

I expect to have most of the Beatles album will be on this list.

Rubber Soul part 2, arguably their best album and one of my personal favorites.

Fantastic as ever

Really enjoyed this. Listened twice.

My favourite Beatles album. It doesn’t get much better.

Well, it’s the Beatles, so it’s hard-pressed to be bad. ;) I liked this one, and it was interesting because they sounded young still to me on this one.

Pleasant, easy listening with that unmistakeable Beatles sound.

perfeito, experimental, vanguardista

took a second listen but this album is huge. can only imagine what a revolutionary thing the sitar would of been yellow submarine is hilarious tomorrow never knows im only sleeping

Stone cold classic. Every track a classic except maybe “Love You To,” which is famous in its own way for the introduction of the Indian influence. Forgot the really hard stereo effect amplified by wearing headphones.

Beautiful mixing and wonderful record, one of my favorites!

Favourite songs - For No One She Said She Said I’m Only Sleeping Least favourite - Love You To Tomorrow Never Knows Overall one of my favourite albums

A classic. Didn’t know I knew most of the songs until I heard them. Can’t believe they are all on one album

Veritable blueprint for a perfect pop album

Кайфулечка

I mean cmon! Beatles scale: 4.7

YES this was my shit back in 2018 still love them

Connor: One of the best Beatles albums

Definitely more my pace as far as the Beatles go. There’s a lot going on here musically, I can see myself coming back to this one

Great pop record. I guess I really like studio Beatles.

Apart from Yellow Submarine, one of their best

There’s not much of anything I don’t like on Revolver and I love Elenor Rigby, it’s one of my favorites. But I do like other albums more - I like when the albums have a bit more of the full spectrum of Beatles sounds from the very soft to the more classic rock sounds.

Taxman- bueno pero no mi favorita, repetitiva 7/10 Elenor Rigby - me gusta, diferente a lo que normalmente he escuchado de este grupo 8.9/10 I’m only sleeping- pensé que no me iba a a gustar por el principio pero es mi favorita hasta ahora, el outro wow 9.3/10 Love you to- different pero no me gusta mucho 5/10 Here, there and everywhere- me gusta sweet and slow I love it 9/10 Yellow submarine- no me gusta parece canción de campamento 4.7/10 She said she said- no se me dio miedo 3/10 Good day sunshine- soft and cute 8.5/10 And your bird can sing- está bien 7.4/10 For no one- I can relate 8/10 Doctor Robert- feliz y ok 7.8/10 I want to tell you- me gusto 8.4/10 Got to get you into my life- creo que es mi favorita del album 10/10 Tomorrow never knows - no 2/10

Un clásico

Enjoyed that blast from the past

Ну ебать, пушка, расслабон Давно битлов не слушал и было любопытно, как теперь для меня они звучать будут. Ну шо сказать, определённо раньше они мне больше нравились, но сейчас есть какой-то приятный ностальгический оттенок из-за которого в разы приятнее слушать их Но скорее всего именно из-за него я не могу оценить на 5 баллов, теперь не настолько их слепо люблю, а из-за ностальгии хочется высоко оценивать только самое пиздатое, то под что можно постоянно фантазировать и мечтать о своём. Тут всё же какие-то просадки ощущаются, как-то выбивает тебя иногда из приятного транса Треки все хороши, и Taxman, и Eleanor Rigby, и Here, There and Everywhere, и Good Day Sunshine. Так что без выбора, единственное подмечу Got To Get You Into My Life, то что там Пол вытворяет, это пиздец, прям ух (В сравнении с другими песнями в альбоме, конечно же) Как минимум чем интересный этот альбом, так это тем, что всё звучит в какой-то степени одинаково и разно. И это сразу привлекает и интригует тем - "А что дальше будет", но переходы иногда слишком уж резкие, нет плавности между треками

Классика. Оч приятный альбом, получил то, что ожидал. Топ-1 - Yellow Submarine + Eleanor Rigby. Топ-2 - Here, There and Everywhere

I’ve known about this album, but admittedly have never listened to it until now. While some standout songs are famous and familiar, some I’d never heard and some your mum even knew that I didn’t. But the album is iconically the Beatles and this did not disappoint. You threw your arms up for yellow submarine and that made my day.

A collection of classics. The South Asian influences on some of the songs are fun too

That was a good album, had some solid hits.

Great album lots of hits

Great Beatles album

Loistava Beatles-albumi, joka on todennäköisesti tehty ihan älyttömillä resursseilla, sen verran mahtavalta tuotanto ja soundit kuulostavat. Asiat on kohdallaan; stemmalaulut, soitto ja hyvällä tavalla älytön määrä ”muita kuin bändi-instrumentteja”. 14 biisiä, kesto reilu puoli tuntia, biiseissä erinomaisesti vaihtelevuutta eli biisit ovat selkeästi erilaisia keskenään. Jälleen kerran, Ringon rumpalointi on eleetöntä ja tehokasta. Tähän levyyn on helppo ihastua. 4/5

I don't actually need to listen to this album to know what each song sounds like. I just need to read the titles and all the songs in their entirety, just pop into my head. Not my favorite Beatles album, but its status as A Classic Album is well-deserved. (4/5 personally, 5/5 for importance)

amo esta portada omg, revolver tiene de las mejores canciones de los beatles y después está la poronga que hizo ringo digamos 9,2/10

I think the only song I really don't care about here is "Yellow Submarine". Other than that, phenomenal album! Very high 4

this one is fun okay?! it has interesting sound effects and cool harmony lines, it has eleanor rigby, yellow submarine, AND for no one on it sooo it’s a classic

When they started to be more interesting

Finally listening to this album. Short but good. Exactly what I expected from the Beatles and they are a great band but I dont think i can give it a 5.

A classic album had the class is of Elenor rigbt and yellow submarine but I also discovered a few new ones I really enjoyed!

Pretty good album, liked the second half better

Some of the so he on revolver as re absolute fantastic, Eleanor Rigby and Tomorrow never knows. But some of the ones between don't do much for me. Yellow submarine is such a meme song. Good album, but Beatles don't do much for me.

first time listening to the beatles in album form, and it was good ! but just that, i can appreciate this album but honestly didn't particularly enjoy it, low 4

Another stellar Beatles album. What’s not to love, there’s alittle bit for everyone. There’s “taxman” “Eleanor rigby” “I’m only sleeping” “love to you” “and your bird can sing” “for no one” “yellow submarine” and “tomorrow never knows”. It’s jammed pack with great songs! Honestly I do think a lot of their work gets lost in their own shadow. Like when you ask somebody about great Beatles tracks no one is going to remember to say “for no one” or even “I’m only sleeping”. There’s just so much going on in their entire catalog. But regardless I think this is one of their best albums, it’s not quite perfect enough to get a 5 from me cause there are some forgettable tracks that don’t make a huge impact. But as a whole it’s a quintessential Beatles album.

Good album

Yellow Submarine is terrible, and the sentiments of Taxman are unconscionable, but most of the rest of the album is pretty great, a mix of traditional rock n roll and a degree of experimentalism that was astonishing for 1966.

I really liked it much better the second time. Starting to see some of the attraction. I'd listen again on purpose

Better than the white album, less of Paul’s nursery rhymes and more psychedelic

Number: 202 Familiarity: Extremely (5) Rating: 4 Before: ======= So there are 4 too many Beatles albums on this. If I were to choose only 3, this one would probably be a contender.

Favourite Songs: I'm Only Sleeping Love You To Tomorrow Never Knows

Amazing production and ambition. Just not all the songs landed right in the feels to make it a 5.

Weird to say, but I always forget how fun it is to listen to the Beatles. Controversially, I think they’re quite good.

Is it a 4? Or is it a 5? Let’s see today… Yeah. It’s a 4. Yellow Submarine is… a very nice song for four and five year olds. A lot of the Beatles are. I LOVED them when I was five. The crazy thing is they sold this to 15 and 25 year olds. Idk 4 Boolean: true, it’s the Beatles

Kauniita hienoja kappaleita. Lyhyitä, helppoa kuunneltavaa. Taattua Biitlesiä.

Its a great album 8.5 or 9 tje vocals are great yhe gituar is great the drums are great

I don't really think we all live in a yellow submarine, but it's an interesting idea. I also don't need to tell you Revolver's a great album. It's excellent front to back, full of classics, and is perfectly listenable over 50 years later. The only real complaint I have about it is that fuckass album cover with the weird line art just continues to feel uncanny. It's not really the best of the Beatles (that title goes to either Pete or Abbey Road, depending on where you're standing) but it's definitely up there, potentially a top 3 if I'm not in a particularly rubbery mood. All that to say that it lacks the kind of hit-singles vision you get out of something like Sgt Pepper or Abbey Road, but it also makes it a very tonally-consistent album with a clear throughput of vision. Lennon's voice works really well over the album and from a production level it's a front-to-back masterpiece that holds up great. I even like that weird-ass final track, feels very ahead of its time. I forgot how good Eleanor Rigby is, too. That track in particular just hits different with those sharp violins. Only McCartney could pull off a line about darning socks and make it work. Fav tracks: Eleanor Rigby, I Want To Tell You, Got To Get You Into My Life, Tomorrow Never Knows

Não achava que era bem o meu estilo mas depois de ouvir surpreendeu me bastante, gostei bastante de Here, There and Everywhere; For No One e de I Want to tell you e obviamente de Tomorrow Never Knows eu tinha visto muitas críticas em que diziam que a música fazia do álbum um 5⭐️ mas para mim não mudou assim tanto a minha opinião do álbum. Claramente um álbum de verão, e vou voltar a ouvir com certeza

wrongo

Classics coming out the wazu!

Dieses Beatles Gedudel halt….aber got to get you into my life ist ja mal richtig geil!

Probably the weakest Beatles album I has listened to but it's still the Beatles

Es muuuuy bueno. No tiene ninguna canción skipeable como quieren hacer creer. AMO la sitar y los instrumentales indios. Verdaderamente una joya, de los álbumes más influyentes de la música. No es de mis favoritos pero lo escucho regularmente

Not my favourite Beatles album but still a cracker

beautiful

not something id usually listen to but definitely a few bangers

Is it just me, or does "Taxman" not fit on this album? It's like they started out with an early Beatles throw-back , then went full psychedelic for the rest of the album. A good, if a bit too all over the place, album.

If I were ranking Beatles albums ... Revolver would slot in just below Rubber Soul for me.

mostly weaker songs than other Beatles, still a few standouts. the thing that makes up for it is that they're incredible at rock band arrangements by this point, and messing about with recording studio as instrument worked so well for the Beatles it convinced decades of hacks to try it. in general you should not put a children's song on your rock album but mythological musicians have got to do a few weird things here and there

Great.

When my brother was a young boy he thought the Beatles were a children's group like the Wiggles because of the prevalence of Yellow Submarine at day care sing alongs. I actually like the Beatles version of the song, I like the salty sea dog vocal of whoever is doing that. Credit to the post war British tax system to make a song by the world's most famous musicians complaining about paying their taxes seem sympathetic. Nice and short, bit all over the place but has some stone cold classics.

"Here, There and Everywhere" is a highlight. Some of the songs lack direction. Overall it just sort of is the Beatles.

I like it

Classic Beatles album. I have no idea why it’s considered in the top echelon of Beatles albums. Or of albums all time. Pardon my ignorance. 4/5

A signature Beatles album, short and sweet but with wide variety and classic tracks. 4/5.

This album was a really good album. The diverse instrument and the amazing lyrics really got me into it. Though the lyrics are repetitive, it’s still very good. Recommending this to slow rock enthusiasts.

Not my favourite Beatles album but its still a Beatles album!

3.5★/5 06.22.2026

this was pretty good! more things on here than I thought I would enjoy, particularly Tomorrow Never Knows

It’s so abundantly clear that the Beatles and their albums are the spark which steered so much of music in the direction it is pointed to now. That being said revolver didn’t pack the same punch for me as sgt pepper or the white album did, perhaps because it didn’t flourish quite as much experimentally. As I’m writing this, a fear grows within me that I have completely missed the point with this album, shall have to re listen and assess my naivety

No typically a Beatles fan, but Eleanor Rigby gets this album four stars.

And then there was one. Only got Hard Days Night left from the Beatles (aside from the Lennon and McCartney solo albums). Honestly was expecting more from this album? When its hitting, its really hitting (Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine, and Got To Get You Into My Life), but otherwise I'm finding the rest of the tracklist to be fine. Not a super big fan of the Indian influenced songs with the sitar and tanpura. Although it doesn't sound quite as appropriative and cringe as when pretty much any other band use those instruments. The sequencing can be a little rough too. Eleanor Rigby going into I'm Only Sleeping is a bad transition. Still feeling a 4 on this one, but a light 4 that is pretty much propped up by the hits I mentioned before. Probably slot it above The White album and With the Beatles, but below Sgt. Peppers and Abbey Road.

im not usually a beatles listener but this album made me really like them! taxman was my favorite

I kinda wish I had Abbey Road right at the end of this challenge, as every Beatles album will probably underwhelm me in comparison. This is a nice album nonetheless, doesn't have too many standout tracks though. Eleanor Rugby is a classic, however. 3.5/5.

Great album - might be the best one by the beatles just because of how many great songs are on here. I re-listened to a lot of old favorites and found a couple more that I didn't know.

J'ai bien aimé c'était cours sympa il y a des sons que j'ai bien kiffer celui avant submarine

#32 The Beatles shifted towards psychedelia with Revolver, and it delivered several of their best songs. Incredibly influential and truly ahead of its time, this album sounds fantastic for a 1966 release. Lots of unique arrangements and instrumentation are used, showing how much they were able to innovate and expand their sound in comparison to their earlier work. It's a good listen all the way through, but so many tracks are jammed into its relatively short run time. It would benefit from dropping a couple and letting the more experimental tracks run a bit longer.

Incredible, this might be pushing for my favorite Beatles album!

One of my favourite Beatles albums. Incredible sounding for its time and it still sounds so good today.

It’s a great timeless album. Still relevant in 2026 (60 years after its release). Some songs will stay with you, while others might be a bit forgettable, but overall: a great album.

7/10 great psychedelic themes and a cool introduction into the pioneering of psych rock

This sent me on a trip

Overall 4/5: The Beatles have so many unique songs, and I get why they are covered so much. I think I regonized about a third of the songs before listening to this whole album. My first impression of this album was there was a TON of experimentation going on which I appreciate. Some of it I enjoyed and some of it I did not. Personally, I am not a huge fan of the Beatles singing, but the chord progressions, melodies, song structure, and rhytmn are so unique for some of these songs. This seems like an album where you impression might change after multiple listens because there is a lot to take in. Taxman 3.5/5: interesting use of stereo, cool bass and guitar riff and the drums fit well. The song was not as interesting as other Beatles songs for me though Eleanor Rigby 5/5: Classic, already familiar with this one, the Cody Fry version of this song is great I'm Only Sleeping 4.5/5: great harmonies and melody, interesting reverse guitar, interesting chord change in middle of song Love You Too 3.5/5: Like the sitar and Indian instruments, the melody was not interesting to me though, unique for a rock band which I can appreciate Here There and Everywhere 5/5: I am familiar with this one. This song goes so many places for the length, unique chord progression which is what makes the beatles music intersting for me. Yellow Submarine 4.5/5: Familiar with this one. I know people clown on this song sometimes because it is kinda stupid. It agree it is kinda stupid but to me it's funny and charming. She Said She Said 2.5/5: There is a lot going on here, but not really for me. The guitar tone is pretty unique and there are some interesting rhythmic elements here. Good Day Sunshine 3.3/5: It is a fun upbeat song that makes you want to bop your head. The piano is very low which is interesting and I like the piano solo. The modulation at the end caught my attention And Your Bird Can Sing 3/5: I like the harmonies guitar riff, and nice classic line cliche. I didn't dislike anything about this song, but nothing really caught my attention like some of the other songs For No One: 3.5/5 Classic ballad sounding but there was one chord in there that suprised me which I liked. Doctor Robert 2/5: I like the middle part, but the amount of times I heard Doctor Robert got kinda annoying and repetitive. I Want To Tell You 3/5: Cool sounding intro. I love the dissonant piano parts, very jazzy. Nice middle section to mix things up. Got To Get You Into My Life 4.5/5: Familiar with this song and the chorus is very catch and I love the brass parts and lead up to the chorus. I have to say the Earth Wind & Fire version of this song is so much better (but I am bias because that is my favorite band) Tommorow Never Knows 2/5: All the background sounds caught my ear hear. I don't even know what was going on at the 1 minute mark. I can't say I enjoyed listening to this my first time around but I appreciate expermentation. That was almost too much to take in for my first listen.

This was the first Beatles album I found myself eager to relisten to. It had a lot of good songs on without being so much of a chose as the White album.

the termites

Los bitels

this was released the same year i was born. My mom keeps repeating some of The Beatles songs from time to time. Listening the whole album in 2026 made me feel nostalgic. Good music, good Album. I wish this album is kinda longer...

Is it just me or does this album cover look like Kiss with no makeup?

The first Beatles record of my project. I won't spend much words talking about them or the music here since the Beatles are totally worth the hype; they're one of the greatest bands of all time hands down. As for Revolver it's not my favorite Beatles record for one simple reason: every song is perfect- and way too short. The songs and the album itself both are. I simply can't rate it on the same level I would Abbey Road or the White Album for instance. Maybe worth the one missing point for its innovation, but it might be on a different day. Still this is a must listen, like most Beatles material.

Startet mit 2 Meisterwerken doch wird von song zu song langweiliger

I think this is one of their best if not their best. Manages to be consistent but has variety. I understand keeping your drummer happy but Yellow Submarine doesn’t do anything here. Songs like Elenor Rigby, She Said She Said, And Your Bird Can Sing and Tomorrow Never knows stand out for me, unlike many Beatles albums there is no real trash filler as to be fair, unnecessary as it is, YS has a catchy chorus and is harmless enough. Bearing in mind this hit in 66 it’s apparent to see why it had such an impact. 4.2

3.6/5. Some great tunes, some less good. But they were creating all this from a base of absolutely nothing. Absolute pioneer music this, probably why there are a few missteps. But when they get it right they really get it right.

It's obviously an incredibly influential album and way ahead of its time. Eleanor Rigby and To Get You Into My Life are the highlights for me. There some stuff that doesn't appeal so much but it's a diverse, interesting album that benefits from repeat listens.

its the beatles, what else can you say. i didnt like i love you to and the last song, felt like they where out of place

Classic and one of my favorite Beatles albums!

Some great tracks. Can see how it was so far ahead of its time

Really enjoyed this Beatles album, especially the incorporation of the eastern instruments and droney parts on the back half. The album has a few well known songs, and some experimental numbers in between. Good balance! 4.1/5.0

Mafalda y yo somos el top global d beatlemaniacs. 4.5

aunque no es el mejor álbum que tienen siempre los beatles van a tener algún banger, se notó mucho la influencia de la india

this was a great listen. Recognized several songs on this one for sure. 4 stars.

I realized i never consciously listened to the Beatles - them being kind of this omnipresence of "people know them". liking it so far, a lot more than i expected especially "Eleanor Rigby", "Love You To" and "For No One" - everything is musically interesting but not necessarily my taste

Good album with good songs. Not exactly my favourite style but enjoyable to listen to and some standouts like Eleanor Rigby

Might listen again but overall wasn’t necessarily getting into the vibe

Una bomba de disco. Le pondría 4.5 estrellas pero no puedo. Lo único que no me gustó fue la última canción y Love You To

Fantastic album. Not all songs are hits, but there are a bunch and the album just feels like a cohesive package even though the individual tracks are so different.

The Beatles groundbreaking record but it’s not sgt peppers or the white album the it must be revolver If your unsure why the Beatles are so highly regarded then remember that on Three separate occasions contemporary reviews were staggered by the diversity and innovation on display . revolver sits in the middle and is no less worthy for that . Complete different to what came before. Taxman - an angry jazzy rebuttal to actual tax problems . Still based on jangly guitars but with a driving baseline is followed by the symphonic pop of Eleanor rigby . Beautiful and slightly disturbing The quaint Fab Four still can be found on songs like I’m only sleeping and she said but now with added sitar and the start of psychedelic sounds that would be expanded on in their next groundbreaking release Yellow submarine and Dr Robot toy with being novelty songs but manage to stay relevant- just

4 lads get into the studio and change the musical narrative.

The jump in creativity from With The Beatles to THIS is insane. I’m still impressed by the special effects and worldly influences on this album today. I can’t even imagine how this must’ve sounded in 1966. It’s also cool hearing more from George (and Ringo I guess) on vocals and how each of them have their own lyrical styles that play off each other. Truly timeless!

https://1001albumsgenerator.com/albums/3PRoXYsngSwjEQWR5PsHWR/revolver

8/10 I like the Beatles a lot. But Yellow Submarine drags this down from great to very good. Stupid song, haunting my primary school days being forced to sing it.

Taxman - repetitive but masterpiece anyways Eleanor Rigby - cultissime, rien de moins I'm only sleeping - unenergized, but very chill and cool Love you to - feel like a knight at the tavern and love that Here, there, and everywhere - love the chorus, not the song... Yellow submarine - cultissime. She said she said - groovy and rocky, love that Good day sunshine - "insert dumbass Patrick star meme" 🤠🤪😃 And your bird can sing - good song, too short for anything crazy, love the guitar tho For no one - Beatles song, good asf Doctor Robert - very good, rock n' roll vibes I want to tell you - good but melancholic asf Got to get you into my life - relatable, good sing, good guitar and drums Tomorrow never knows - very experimental, still love the influence Definitely not my favorite Beatles album, but still good and relevant 60 years later

База

I feel like most people rate this really high just because it’s the Beatles. Yes, the Beatles have many great hits and a few of them lives in this album, but I feel like the entire album in its entirety wasn’t like world changing to me. It’s still good tho, yellow submarine is a banger and it was one of like 10 songs on my iPod when I was little. Always on loop

bangerz. high 4

The vest one yet. Didn'T like the different side of where the musice got played from

It brings me much pain to not give Revolver a 5, but unfortunately I can't. 'Yellow Submarine' fucking sucks, 'Doctor Robert' is mediocre and 'Good day Sunshine' plods along with no real place on the album. Despite its many masterpieces, it is far from a perfect album, and I'll never understand how so many people consistently rank this in the Beatles top 3 records.

Ik snap wel wat mensen hier vet aan vinden. Dit is wel een stuk bijzonderder dan de eerdere Beatles albums als je het mij vraagt. Je hoort de buitenlandse invloeden, hoor ik een soort Indiaas geluidje daar? Maar ik weet niet, misschien zijn mijn verwachtingen gewoon veel te hoog. Deze mannen zijn een soort god voor muzieksnobs overal, en dat hoor ik niet helemaal. Wel beseffen dat dit uit 1966 komt, dat is wel echt insane. Wat dat betreft snap ik het wel, deze muziek is destijds ontzettend vernieuwend geweest. Nu is het, tsja achterhaald wil ik niet zeggen, maar het is niet meer zo vernieuwend. Er zitten wel echt hele vette nummers tussen, Eleanor Rigby vind ik echt prachtig en als er meer van dat op stond was het de makkelijkste 5 die ik had gegeven. Nu zit er echter ook wat matigere nummers zoals Dr Robert op. Tomorrow never knows is denk ik net iets te zwaar als trip. Holy shit wat is de cover trouwens vet. Alles bij elkaar? Ja ik denk wel dat dit mijn favoriete Beatles album is, dus ja, dan moet het ook wel een hoger cijfer krijgen dan de rest. Er zit een hoop op wat ik vet vind, en ok het is niet allemaal even sterk. Maar soms moet ik ook gewoon realiseren dat dit uit 1966 komt. En met dat in het achterhoofd is dit, ook nu nog, gewoon echt een goed album. Jammer dat ik die vinyl heb weggeven... FAVO: Eleanor Rigby, Here, There, and Everywhere, Yellow Submarine, Got to get you into my life

Once again, what more can be said about this Beatles album that hasn't been said before. I think it's potentially the most cohesive album, but it no more or less excellent than other albums. Lots of classics. I used to think this was my go-to Beatles, but I think it has since been replaced. I shan't divulge what has replaced it, on threat of death.

Admittedly a foundational album that has inspired popular music for decades to come. However, besides a few standout tracks, I feel like this record isn't really THAT special. Perhaps it was a more innovative record at the time. Also, the cover is horrifying. Favourite tracks: Eleanor Rigby, And Your Bird Can Sing Least favourite tracks: Taxman, Doctor Robert

Enjoyed it; eclectic sound kept it interesting (though cohesive?). A few songs that were new to me. Eleanor Rigby my fave.

Great tunes that become laughable at some cases just listening to these men sing it. Experimentation I thoroughly enjoyed, it felt very seamless and the mixing in headphones was heavenly. Reminds me of Type O Negative, and now I see where their inspiration comes from.

3rd Beatles album of the list lets go!! Starting off with Taxman, typical Beatles track. Good, solid.Eleanor Rigby, obviously a classic. Such a great narrative and music to support it. I’m only Sleeping is a good track, and I always love a little Sitar like in Love you to. I really Here there and everywhere and obviously yellow submarine is obviously great. I loved and your bird can sing! For no one had some amazing piano. Doctor Robert was really fun. Had a good groove to it. I want to tell you also had that nice groove. Ending up with Tomorrow never knows. Great piano! A decent closer. It’s a Beatles album! Not my favourite one, but what more can I say. 4/5 ⭐️ 127/1089

Could have been a 5, if not for Yellow Submarine.
