Abbey Road is my favourite Beatles album for a number of reasons. As it was their last album together and tensions in the band were fraught at the time, the quality of the musicianship is outstanding for a band that were falling apart. Its a testement to their proffessionalism that an album of this quality could have been made under those ...

I've realised that I own blooming (trying not to swear) loads of albums, certainly over 400 but based on my Itunes total of over 8000 possibly it's nearing 600, not a lot by Frankingsteins tally but not bad. So I thought I'd start at A and see how far I get before I think about getting my Megadrive out and starting my games ...

It's hard to review the Beatles as there are some albums of theirs that are better than others but they still deserve 5 stars. I don't need to give much background I dare say on the most famous band of all time. The original Fab four released Abbey Road in 1969 and as usual it was a mega hit. Everthing the Beatles touched turned to gold at the ...

Abbey Road was and still is a album that can not be beaten in both quality and content, there are secrets behind this album that have not been discovered yet believe me. Everyone knows the Beatles but not everyone realizes how diverse they were, the talent grew and grew and went through so many phases throughout there careers. The reason ...

This is the greatest album of all time. The creativity that went into this album, the range of feeling and the creativity of all four Beatles hit it's pinnacle such that this masterpiece is the Mt. Everest of Beatles achievements. When this was an LP, the contrast between the sides was unique and added to the distinction. Side one being fully ...

Abbey Road was my first Beatles album and is also my favourite. It is a true masterpiece, a work of which I never tire. I first bought my own copy up in January 1998, and I regret not having one for the nineteen years of my life that preceded it. Since I was a late Beatles developer, I was determined to catch up and I’m very glad that I did. ...

It was the last album they recorded together, and if you ask me, they left the industry at their peak. If your a fan of modern music, then it is a crime not to own a copy of the 1969 Beatles album, Abbey Road. Or at least to have heard it. It may not contain many well known tracks, but in my opinion, the lesser known Beatles tracks are often the ...

It’s not an easy thing writing ops, you know. Oh, no. It can be infuriating, dull and hard to be inspired. Frankly, the only reason I continue is the joy of putting question marks where they obviously don’t belong, and I’m even beginning to tire of that. Wel?l, nearly. So what I’m trying to say, in a roundabout, ...

What do you get when four guys cross a road? ........... One of the most famous album covers of all time it would seem. Low Standards ah-hoy! Abbey Road is the last album the Beatles recorded together though not the last released, as thus it seems to show signs of the deterioration of the relationships in the band. John Lennon in ...

The true final Beatles Album and the one were George shines brightest. Allow most people would class SGT Pepper as the Beatles finest hour the truth would be more like Paul Mc Cartneys finest! Allow Lennon claimed that the B side of the Album was mostly all bits of songs and truthfully you can see that ie " I want you ( She's so ...

Reviewing an album by the Beatles is a little like reviewing the sun or the moon. Like the sun or the moon, a Beatles album is a fact of life: something to be accepted without thought, enjoyed when it's good, endured when it's not. You wouldn't question or analyze one any more than you would question or analyze a miracle. And the ...

"Let it be" was released after it, but "Abbey Road" was the Beatles' final recording, the final time when all four Fabs recorded together in the studio. As everyone knows, things were not altogether hunky dory between them, the four were going their separate ways? and it shows on "Abbey Road". It has been ...

Abbey Road is the easiest or perhaps not the easiest Beatles albumn to get into. With songs like Oh! Darling, Octopus's garden Maxwell's Silver Hammer and Because it was very easy to see this was the follow on album from the White Album and these tunes represented the easy going, whimsical, some would say formula side of the Beatles, ...

The last Beatles LP to be recorded, Abbey Road saw each Fab rarely around simultaneously, though this isn't really evident in its extremely well-drilled and elaborate song structure. Come Together and I Want You (She's So Heavy) are perfectly formed Lennon mini-epics and the quick-fire 8 track medley starting with You Never Give Me Your ...

Abbey Road is not the Beatles that we came to love and admire in the early 60’s. I think the band tried to change their image and music too much with this album and ended up with a mixed bag of tracks that do not flow together particularly well. The two tracks Octopus’s Garden and Maxwell’s Silver Hammer have the feel of ...

Abbey Road This album has always been my favourite Beatles album, a swansong and what a beautiful collection of songs it is. For me it beats Seargent Pepper, which despite all its greatness, somehow did not have enough soul for me,Abbey Road remedies that a collection of songs which are stunning. It's also well ...

Abbey Road is the greatest album from the greatest band of all time, and from start to finish you will be hooked by the fantastic production values and the true musical genius of the Fab Four. From the opening riff of Come Together, through fantastic ballads such as Something to uplifting tracks like Here Comes The Sun, you'll quickly feel ...

When the list of tunes is as compelling as it is on Abbey Road, the prospect of not owning it becomes somewhat ridiculous. While the album as a whole doesn't gel like certain others made by the band (Sgt Pepper, for the best example) many individual tracks demand to be listened to. If Come Together and Maxwell's Silver Hammer don't ...
