I'm really liking "Magical Mystery Tour" at the moment.
"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe. Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind, Possessing and caressing me." "About a lucky man who made the grade" "I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you."
I'm most attached to Help!, it being my favourite album and one of the first Beatles albums I got (and also because I love the movie and it reminds me of it ). But right now I'm very much liking the White Album
I'd ask my friends to come and see... an Octopus's Garden with me ^___^
Thats a good album as well! You got to love "Help!" hah

BUT which album by The Beatles do you treasure the most in a sentimental sense..
Oh, goodness. Great question. I ask your indulgence:
First place: Beatles VI and Meet the Beatles. A tie. I've mentioned on other threads -- the harmonies on This Boy and Yes It Is -- I thought they were written by computers. Not a bright boy. But I couldn't conceive how that could be done by a mere person.
Then, in flawed order: MMT -- the first album I ever bought (around 1970?) after I scratched the **** out of my brother's. Help! -- Dwight Northrup had it, and we started our band because of it and the film. Revolver -- Side 1 is sent from above.
I think I was then given 62-66 and 67-70 for Christmas and my birthday (weeks later) when they came out. My brothers didn't have all the old ones, so I heard "Drive My Car" and "Old Brown Shoe" and others for the first time.
Then my brother came home from the Army, bringing Pepper, Abbey Road, White Album, and Let It Be. Good Lord. Those years of discovery ... I've very seldom experienced anything so ... meaningful.
Amazing stuff. Thanks for the chance to go back through it. Peace, wal
The White Album, just because there are so many great tracks, including Blackbird (my second fave song after I Feel Fine), Mother Nature's Son, Everybody...Monkey (my nine year old daughter's favorite Beatles song), Dear Prudence, I Will. Revolver would be a very close second.
When she was about 14 my school friend broke her leg, (horrid accident, I was there when it happened, v traumatic) and the whole class clubbed together to get her something. I was nominated to get her something she'd like. I knew just the thing! We had enough to get her a cassette of Revolver, so she could listen to it in hospital. She was really pleased! Since then it's been a great album for me. I love the cover, great art. The songs are sooooo good, George was stepping out from behind John and Paul, there's so much wonderful music on there. I think it points where they were going as well.
Please Please Me,solely,as it was the 1st Beatle lp I ever owned.My brother bought it in 63 and gave it to me about 10 yrs later.And its on the gold Parlophone label.But really,I cannot get over Revolver.It has everything.I only wish Yellow Submarine wasnt on it(sorry,Ringo fans) and there was another Lennon track on it.Even Rain.
