Free Music Notes for Revolver [UK]
Free Music Review: masterpiece
Hit: 5 Stars
magnificent. maybe not the beatles' most cohesive work, but for me the most intriguing and most beguiling.
i love harrison's contributions, i love the beginnings of their era-defining musical experimentation on my personal favorite track (tomorrow never knows), i love the complexity of the work as a whole.
maybe the most interesting beatles album, as it came during their transition from pop icons to bona fide artists. it doesn't get any better than this.

Free Music Review: The Beatles conjure another winner and arguably best album 40 years later
Hit: 5 Stars
The Beatles' Revolver was released in August of 1966.
The album was the last in their mop-top period and still a classic today (over 40 years after its first release). I was already familiar with these songs as heard on the radio.
Guitarist George Harrison shines with three numbers including the opening rocker "Taxman", the Indian sounding "Love You To" and the rocker "I Want to Tell You" which would be covered by Ted Nugent on Ted's 1979 album State of Shock. Singer/rhythm guitarist John Lennon has five great songs here like the atmospheric "I'm Only Sleeping" (deleted from original US issue). Plus the rockers "She Said She Said", "And Your Bird Can Sing" (deleted from original US issue) and "Doctor Robert" (deleted from original US issue) and finally, the psychedelic closer "Tomorrow Never Knows" is Lennon's masterwork.
Bass player/singer Paul McCartney has five numbers with the eerie "Eleanor Rigby". Plus the ballad "Here There and Everywhere" and pop numbers like "Good Day Sunshine", "For No One" and "Got To Get You Into My Life" (Earth Wind and Fire covered this in 1978 for the debacle movie Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band with The Bee Gees and Peter Frampton).
Lastly, drummer Ringo Starr sings the John Lennon penned "Yellow Submarine" showing us that The Beatles could tackle any genre of music well, even kid's songs (the track would inspire the animated movie of the same name a few years later).
I first got this album in December of 1995 on CD and loved it immediately (although I had heard the sterile US version years earlier but felt short changed, the UK version is the real Revolver).
Revolver was YET another #1 album (even if it was the cheap cut edition here in the US), no surprise and is my third favorite Beatles disc after Sgt Pepper and Abbey Road respectively.
Free Music Review: Great Album
Hit: 5 Stars
This is my favorite Beatles album. If your going to get one Beatles album, get this or Rubber Soul, but Revolver is better.
