"Taxman," "Love You To," and "I Want to Tell You." Well, they're all

Does the stand for Georgilicious?

I also had a tape that my Dad had recorded. It was the American version of Revolver, so it didn't have "Doctor Robert", "I'm Only Sleeping" or "And Your Bird Can Sing". Poor Dad was missing out!

I'm not sure, but I would bet it was on one of the "other" Beatles recordings, like Beatles VI or something like that. My dad didn't have Good Night on there probably due to space constraints. I certainly felt like I was missing out when I realized that the tapes I had bought of Revolver and Rubber Soul were for some ...

Yeah, I want to get revolver on Vinyl, but the only one I can find within my price range is the American release. Which is missing, in my opinion, 2 of revolvers best songs.

I enjoy listening to Revolver in the afternoon, whille Abbey Road is one I listen to at night.

For Golden Slumbers? I remember listening to bits of the White Album before I went to sleep (not actually sleep *to* it, because it was on a tape.) But it had such great, mellow songs on there, Cry Baby Cry, Long, Long, Long, Blackbird, Julia, I Will, Mother Nature's Son. I could go on.

Oddly enough, my tape, copied from my dad's copied from an actual record did not include Good Night.

And Your Bird Can Sing! I guess no one else feels that way... The first time I heard it I was ecstatic. every time I hear it I'm ecstatic.

Revolver's for sure my fave album of all time. I can't stop listening to She Said, She Said right now. and For No One.

Same here! I love listening to this song on a sunny day.

Actually, I like listening to this one at night.
For me, Rubber Soul is a morning album and Revolver and The Beatles are nighttime albums.

yeah. yeah. I agree to pretty much everything that was just said. It just has this aura about it, and it's got attitude. The guitar work is lovely, everything's lovely. And the cover is the best I've ever seen. My guitar strap has the revolver cover all over it OOOH look a half apple!

I think the whole album has that "sunny day" feeling to it. And not just because of Good Day Sunshine.

Well, all of the songs except "For No One"-that one's a bit of a downer. And "Eleanor Rigby". But those two supply some nice contrast.

I noticed that Dr. Robert is some peoples least favourites, and I would probably agree except the "well well" part with the harmonium really brings it up so I quite like it.

Totally agree - those harmonium bits really make the song for me, too!

I think my favourite is probably "She Said She Said" for now, although it could be toppled by any of 4-5 others at anytime.

I have to agree with mr. Sun King. I've always liked Maxwell's Silver Hammer, Octopus's Garden and Yellow Submarine, all songs that are generally trashed by critics and fans alike. Every opinion counts!

I get "Yellow Submarine" and "Maxwell's Silver Hammer," but "Octopus' Garden?"

*starts quickly dying*

Yeah, I was reading this music blog and it listed the 'worst' Beatles songs. Octopus's Garden was on their for its 'childish' qualities. Maybe it's not as deep or as complex as "Tomorrow Never Knows" or "Strawberry Fields Forever", but it's still a great song and ...
