Advantages: Some really great tracks

Disadvantages: Parts of the album seem lost

When loking at album, I aim to be objective, just because I do not like something, does not mean it is not any good, my opinion is afterall just that, an opinion.

I also look at an album as a collective, some songs might not be so good on their own, but them with others in album form and they can make alot more sense.

I would never say that this was the greatest Beatles album, its not, its not even album they had a lot to do with in terms of production and ideas, but it is good, there are still some really good tracks here, not least because the Beatles playing together produced a sound that was unique and so brilliant. Even weak songs could often be carried because of their style.

'Dig A Pony', not a great song, but somehow with the Beatles playing it and that fantastic voice that John had it works, the amazing 'I've Got a feeling'.

Perhaps this should not be your first choice, but once you have explored Beatles music this becomes a fascinating glimpse of the time and does yield some very good tracks, but as album it never gets off the ground like other albums.

A good buy but perhpas not your first.
