The Beatles-Rubber Soul *****

Rubber Soul was maybe the equivalent of quantum leap for The Beatles. While they always made great music, even before this, it was with the release of Rubber Soul that the most popular band in the history of music came into their own.

With songs like 'Norwegian Wood' and 'Nowhere Man' the songwriting team of Lennon/McCartney became REAL songwriters not just writers of pop jingles, especially Lennon, who was more talented in the field of lyrics. 'In My Life' and 'Michelle' would both go on to become radio and fan favorites. But not to totally turn away from their past Rubber Soul does include 'Drive My Car' are pop anthem worth every acclaim that 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand received a few years before.

Rubber Soul was the first real classic The Beatles would ever release, an in my opinion is far better then that of Abbey Road, The Beatles (white album), and the incredibly over-hyped Srg. Peppers. This may not have been as experimental as those releases but is in every respect as good. Rubber Soul was for the Beatles what Bringing It All Back Home Was for Bob Dylan. Essential.

Rubber Soul Poster

Rank 'em how you like, Rubber Soul is an undeniable pivot point in the Fab Four's varied discography no matter where, or how, you first heard it. The album was softened up in its original 12-song American edition to jibe with the Dylan/Byrds folk-rock sound, as well as squeeze money from the Parlophone catalog. The 14-song U.K. edition--the version now available on compact disc--is a different, more dynamic, and ultimately more accomplished achievement. So many classics: "Drive My Car" and "Nowhere Man" (both omitted from the U.S. edition) merge the early combustible Beatifics to a burgeoning studio consciousness; "The Word" can be read as a pre-psych warning shot; the sitar-laden "Norwegian Wood" and the evocative "Girl" (the latter written on the last night of the sessions) stand as turning points in John Lennon's oeuvre. George finally emerges too, with the McGuinn-ish "If I Needed Someone." --Don Harrison
