I put the blame on this one fairly and squarely on the shoulders of both George Martin, and Brian Epstein. Epstein for the punishing schedule he put them through (not surprising considering the cut he was making), and Martin as producer, for lack of direction, and allowing them to record a clutch of, quite frankly, duff covers.


I just want you to reassure him - talk to him, make him see the error of his ways. Then I'll hit him.

Though was the schedule really any more punishing than Rubber Soul or Revolver? I'll let Eppy off and damn no one but that scoundrel Martin. See what happens when Macca's not in charge?

Let It Be.Some great songs but a deception.If they were tired in 1964 (Beatles For Sale) they were, and sound, more tired in Let It Be.

Let me put this in context.  To me, almost everything the Beatles did was gold.  The only selection I always skip is Revolution 9.  Other than that, they just had that x factor.  So when I say that I voted for "Beatles for Sale" as the worst album, I still prefer it over almost anything else recorded by anyone.  Also, I didn't consider MMT and YS as actual Beatles albums.  I sorta look at LIB the same as it was shelved by the lads.

That's good to know.  I mean how can they be considered actual studio albums???  MMT is like a comp for the soundtrack.  Same w/YS excpet that a lot of it is not even Beatles music, but Martins musical scores.

Beatles for Sale has the best album picture (Harrison's look is epic), but the worst imo was a Hard Days NIght....

i think it would have to come down to the Yellow Submarine album, it's just
not a proper album & i think it was a waste putting it out, the song-track
version was far much better. that's the one they should have put out with
all the songs from the movie .



It's been a Hard Days Night & i've been working like a dog!

how could someone vote for Help!?

I was very disappointed with YS. Well YS is 75% score music and MMT in my opinion came out with only half the album to my liking. and Let it Be seemed like some back alley music they threw together just to put music to some lyrics they had written. made no sense to me.

if anyone votes Abbey Road I've lost hope.


       Oh, that this too, too solid flesh would melt... Zap!                                                     My skin's soaked right through to the skin!
