Well I wouldn’t be able to eliminate any From the melody because it’s the Abbey Road melody! Haha, but I would take out Her Majesty

The medley on side 2 has to stay. There’s no way I could eliminate that.  Heck, Abbey Road is pretty near awesome just the way it is. I’m leaving it be. a-hard-days-night-paul-11

I only removed 2 tracks: Maxwell’s Silver Hammer and Her Majesty (which the majority would agree are the weakest efforts on the album).  The latter doesn’t really have anything to do with the Medley and I thought The End concluded it perfectly to begin with.  

I also combined 4 of the Medley tracks into two.  In the end, you get a much cleaner simpler tracklist.

I’m in the minority then.

Or give them a balloon that says “album” on it – like just the idea of an album

This sounds like one of Yoko’s artworks.  Are you sure you’re not Yoko?

You’re all right.  Needs more minimalism.  I took your constructive criticism.  Is this tracklist back-cover better?

I don’t mind “Her Majesty “. I love singing along with it. THOUGH I don’t listen to it every single time because I do agree with you in that  I think the final statement should have been “And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make”. 

Maxwell’s Silver Hammer is one I used to love as a kid, and I have some sentimental attachment so I can’t let it go. a-hard-days-night-john-1

You could just give them a blank cd and tell them to imagine their own ‘Abbey Road ‘, why be bound and limited by what the Beatles gave us?

 

Actually thats very Yoko.
