Revolver [UK]

The Beatles

Our Rating:

Thoughts/Words/Reviews:
Revolver wouldn’t remain the Beatles’ most ambitious LP for long, but many fans–including this one–remember it as their best. An object lesson in fitting great songwriting into experimental production and genre play, this is also a record whose influence extends far beyond mere they-was-the-greatest cheerleading. Putting McCartney’s more traditionally melodic “Here, There and Everywhere” and “For No One” alongside Lennon’s direct-hit sneering (”Dr. Robert”) and dreamscapes (”I’m Only Sleeping,” “Tomorrow Never Knows”) and Harrison’s peaking wit (”Taxman”) was as conceptually brilliant as anything Sgt. Pepper attempted, and more subtly fulfilling. A must. –Rickey Wright
