Free Music Notes for Help! [UK]

Free Music Review: Gee, I guess I'll give the CD a *5*
Hit: 5 Stars

With all due respect to the domestic version with the movie soundtrack incidental instrumentals, this Beatles album/CD is probably their greatest album. And its' ironic that it's basically a "soundtrack". Forget the famous mediocrity you saw once amnd said it wasn't as good as "A Hard Day's Night". This collection has *everything*. No B-side/filler/throwaway stuff. Even the track that Lennon himself didn't care for, the beat ballad "It's Only Love" is a highlight! (Gotta say, the "Anthology" version is cooler, though).
As the historians know, there was progrssiveness a-foot throughout - yes, the Bob Dylan influence is here, there, and everywhere. They kept their Little Richard leanings and infused Mr. Zimmerman and....what a sound. Their musical counterparts an fans....slackjawed as we say four times a day, today.
Naturally we hear a strong Country influence on tunes like that famous B-side, plus "You Like Me Too Much", "I've Just Seen A Face", and "Another Girl".
Not that you asked, but my favorite track is "The Night Before". It's characteristically Little Richard Meets The Everly Brothers over a brilliant composition.
Their composing, instrumentalizing, and singing was only getting better. (as in, consistently great).
CD stereo sound is fine. No new liner notes, though.

Help! [UK] Poster

How John Lennon's confessional song became the title for a silly James Bond spoof I really don't know. The funny thing is, it works both ways--as a young man's personal statement about learning to open up to others, and as the frantic theme for an exotic espionage chase comedy starring those lovable mop-tops (this time in color). Like A Hard Day's Night, only the first "side" of this album actually contains songs from the movie--the biggest hits being the eponymous cry for assistance and "Ticket to Ride." But part 2 has a few nice tunes as well, like "It's Only Love," "I've Just Seen a Face," and a little ditty called "Yesterday." And I always love it when they do an all-out screamer like "Dizzy Miss Lizzy," which sounds like John's raucous answer to Paul's "Kansas City/Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey" vocal on Beatles for Sale. Of course, it's essential--as are all the Beatles' soundtracks (all the Beatles' albums), with the possible exception of Yellow Submarine. --Jim Emerson
