Sorry. For me Pepper would share #1 with Hard Day's Night, and White would be at the botome of the list.
I agree entirely Mister C. The White Album is hugely over-rated and it's fashionable to say Revolver is better than Pepper! When people ask me for the best Beatles album I hesitate between Pepper and Hard Day's Night, but Pepper has got a song for Ringo which gives it the edge!
I have to disagree with you about the White Album being hugely overrated... I think it is brilliant! There are so many songs on that album that are truly classic songs. So many different styles on one album: few bands can beat that!
Pepper is in my opinion an overrated album! Just a few songs I really like on that album... Definitely not as many good songs as on the White Album.
But hey, I like Revolver too! I nearly like all Beatles' songs...
I agree about Revolver being a great album . But Its only my 4th favorite. My third Being Rubber Soul . Hey how bout this, I'll set up a tread about favorite origional albmus in order. I'll talk about it there.
Pepper is definetely better tahn white album. White has some songs which i really don't like. But Revolver is better than Pepper. As for AHDN it's not as good as Pepper

What's a truly classic song?Yesterday?Something?Hey Jude? On the White album there are some good songs, but not many classics. Pepper, on the other hand is a classic album.If you take one song away it wouldn't be the same...Who cares if Honey Pie or Good Night or Don't Pass Me By had never existed?Not me...

Hi Zipp!
Are you the same Zipp who posts on the Les Yellow Sub forum? If so I was just wondering what everyone had to say about my Walrus King Lear post... I can't read French!

The way I see it, a classic song is a song by the Beatles which is such a great song... I don't consider Hey Jude and Yesterday GREAT songs: Back In The USSR, Glass Onion, Helter Skelter, and many more of course are what I consider to be great songs. It's just my opinion that's all...
I personally can't decide on a favourite Beatles album! It's too difficult! But, in saying that, Sgt. Peppers was my first album and I think it is truly amazing stuff. It got no. 1 album of all time in Rolling Stone...I have to agree with that.

Yes, it's the same Zipp. Your Shakespeare is now being listened to throughout France!(Well by at least four people...) They were very happy to be able to follow with the song. Incidentally, it's a shame you didn't put the earlier bit between Gloucester and Edgar (between 2.26and 2.30). How on earth did you manage to find the broadcast? Anything you want to say to the yellow-sub site?

Hi Zipp!
I think it's great that clip is being heard for the first time all over the world! I've had hits on that webpage from all over including Japan, Canada, Israel, Slovenia, Phillipines, Italy, Belgium, Trinidad, Uraguay and the US of course! Amazing!
That is the whole recording I have though unfortunately. I wish I did have the rest, but that's probably locked up in a BBC vault somewhere!
It was aired during a BBC Radio One documentary about John Lennon called In My Life - I think it was a 10 part programme. I was amazed when I heard that ACTUAL King Lear clip from I Am The Walrus though!
To all the guys at Yellow Sub I'll just say a very big 'BONJOUR!'. I'm so glad you liked the web-page - it makes it all worthwhile
It amazes me to see how the Beatles still manage to touch so many people, regardless of race, colour or creed.
Great. I'll send your big 'bonjour' to yellow-sub later on today.I'll do a little topic on it! Maybe one day we'll get the rest of King Lear or 'Le Roi Lear' as the French fans say.
Well, I woulda cared if Good Night never existed because I really like that song! While My Guitar Gently Weeps is incredible and definitely helps White Album, but it still ain't one of my favorites.
As for my favorite album, it's Abbey Road. Look what it opens with! Come Together, Something, Maxwell's Silver Hammer, Oh! Darling, Octopus' Garden. Then continues with Here Comes the Sun, Because, and the GRAND suite with Golden Slumbers, Carry That Weight, and The End, with one of the most famous Beatles lines ever writter (And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make).
I'm sorry, but no other Beatles album compres to the greatness of Abbey Road. MMT would follow it, and then Revolver.
What happened we went from talking about a Beatles album to the Rolling Stones(whitch is an Ok band. Rush is 10x better). Anyway after havin a serious listen to of Sargent Peppers I've decided that it's still a great album but ther are other albums that are beter. i.e. Magical Mystery Tour!
HaHa, we were actually talking about the magazine Rolling Stone, in which Sgt. Peppers was number 1 in the 500 greatest albums of all time. Favourite album, ive gone away and thought about it...OH I JUST CANT DECIDE!
