Editorial reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
There are only three stories worth knowing from the last 2,000 years of history: the life of Mohammed, the life of Jesus and the career of The Beatles. They invented all music ever. John was the best one; but Paul is--despite the knighthood and everything--still the most under-rated songwriter of the 20th century. This is the album with "Eleanor Rigby", "Here, There and Everywhere", "For No One", "I'm Only Sleeping" and "Tomorrow Never Knows" on it--but then, you knew that anyway. We presume you have this album already and you're just getting a second copy in case you lose the first. i--Caitlan Moran/i

Forget Pepper this is The Best Beatles Album
The Beatles music had changed by 1966, 3 years earlier it was "She Loves You,yeah,yeah,yeah" not is is "All the lonely people,where do they all come from" The Beatles had improved lyrically and musically and there personalities changed.The First Track "Taxman" is a George Harrison song, its a song about one day you can be filthy rich and have it all taken away, this is a fine song.Eleanor Rigby is the first ballad from the album, and a brilliant ballad, Paul McCartney wrote this track. I'm Only Sleeping is a brilliant John Lennon track, like Taxman its very psychedelic, Love You To is another Harrison with a trademark Sitar, not an amazing song, but preety good. Here,There and Everywhere is a trademark McCartney ballad a brilliant track. Yellow Submarine is a catchy track Ringo sings this one and makes the song recognisable. She Said,She Said is a great yet brilliant track, brilliant guitar work and great lyrics. Good Day Sunshine another great song, great lyrics catchy as hell. And Your Bird Will Sing, is a great song, yet more great guitar work by Harrison. For No One is another great McCartney ballad with a great orchestra in the back ground. Dr Robert is a classic John Lennon about drugs. I want to Tell You is a great Harrison song, Harrison proves himself as a songwriter in this song. Got To Get You Into My life is a great song a bouncy and catchy song by McCartney. The final song is a great song and one of the great Psychedelic songs ever Tommorow never Knows is a Lennon masterpiece, so overall i agree that this album is truly Brilliant. br / br /Key Tracks:Taxman,Eleanor Rigby,I'm Only Sleeping,Here,there and Everywhere,Yellow Submarine,She Said,She Said,Good Day Sunshine,And your bird can sing,For No One,dr Robert,Got To Get you into my Life,I want to tell you,Tomorrow Never Knows br / br /Also Buy: Between The Buttons(The Rolling Stones)

At the threshold of a new era.
One of the most important albums by The Beatles was 'Revolver', released in Europe in 1966. It marked the end of their Rock and Roll period and at the same time had already some songs of what would become the psychedelic period of the "Fabulous Four." 'I'm Only Dreaming' and 'Tomorrow never knows' are a good example of that whole new style. We Beatles fans had to wait two very long years for the release of 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band', the psychedelic album. br / br /'Revolver' has some songs as beautiful as a rare gem. 'Eleonor Rigby', a melancholic song about old and lonely people. br / My favorite song is 'Good Day Sunshine'. They use no guitars but two pianos and play them in a jazzy way. The three songs I just mentioned are in the old style - ballads and rock.

Not the best beatles album
Although lots of people think its the best, I think that the albums following this one are. There are some very good songs on it and the best are George Harrisons Love You To and Taxman, and the Paul McCartney compositions. The other songs are quite tedious and a few sound too much like repeats of Taxman. It's worth it for the few very good songs.
