If it inspires some misfit 16-year-olds to delve into the catalogue a little more, then good on 'em.

You start liking it less as I start liking it more...anyway, at least we agree it could be better.

This is seeming like a worse and worse compilation the more I think of it. It`s very illogical. Why throw the Naked version of I`ve Got A Feeling, when the rest of the album isn`t available.

But it's also got stuff like "Savoy Truffle" which hasn't much of an edge at all. Where's "She's So Heavy" and "Me and My Monkey" and other songs with atonal guitars and titles too long for lazy me to type in full?

BTW, welcome Satanhimself! Have you Introduced Yourself yet? (As a man of wealth and taste?)

The Beatles as psychedelic/hard rockers exclusively...interesting. If it was expanded to 20 tracks/1 hour in length (with me being allowed to tweak the track listing, of course), I'd like it even more.

Its fine for the newbies but what about the oldies?

There would always be a debate over any compilation, people dispute the red and blue album tracklistings. Dont see the point in While My Guitar as it wouldnt be a deep cut since its so well known., tho the same could be said for Revolution.

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 What's the harm of doing this, tho? Where, and for whom, is there anything bad about introducing another way for non - hardcore fans of the Beatles to buy 14 great songs? Where?

I have no problem with the notion of introducing non-hardcore fans to deep cuts. My issue is that the songs themselves could've been chosen more logically - or plentifully, the whole thing being barely 40 minutes worth of music. (What's the point of choosing 14 songs anyways, other than that being the "traditional" number of songs on ...]]> Fri, 27 Jul 2012 21:26:20 +0100 The Walrus on New Beatles Compilation - Tomorrow Never Knows http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/albums/new-beatles-compilation-tomorrow-never-knows/#p54776 The albums http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/albums/new-beatles-compilation-tomorrow-never-knows/#p54776 Get rid of She Said She Said and Savoy Truffle and add I Want You and While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
