Free Music Notes for 1967-1970 (The Blue Album)
Free Music Review: The Blue album
Hit: 4 Stars
Picking up where 1962-1966 left off, the double-album compilation 1967-1970, commonly called The Blue Album, covers the Beatles' later records, from Sgt. Pepper through Let It Be. Like The Red Album, The Blue Album contains a mixture of hits, including singles like "Lady Madonna," "Hey Jude," and "Revolution" that were never included on an LP, plus important album tracks like "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," "A Day in the Life," "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," and "Come Together." Like its predecessor, 1967-1970 misses several great songs, but the compilation nevertheless does capture the essence of the Beatles' later recordings.Free Music Review: frankly, dismissable
Hit: 1 Stars
Frankly this set of no-no tunes is dismissable. The lirrics are corny and sexist and immature.
Why, this has been around too long.
Evict and run from this.
Thanxs
Free Music Review: Epic 2 Disc Set
Hit: 5 Stars
This is one brilliant collection of songs from The Beatles in there later days. If you are a Beatles lover, this 2 disc box set is a must buy. It features some of the best hits of the Beatles, and also contains a few of their lesser known tracks that never got the praise that they deserved. There are no weak songs in this album and belongs in any rock n' roll lover's collection.
Best Songs:
Lucy In the Sky with Diamonds: A fabulous psychedelic track that is known and loved by all Beatles fans.
Come Together: A huge hit off the album "Abbey Road", this track has a classic bass riff.
While My Guitar Gently Weeps: A beautiful rock song, with a wonderful guitar melody. It has been covered by bands like the White Stripes and The Jeff Healey Band. An all time classic hit.
Here Comes the Sun: A George Harrison classic with a magnificent guitar tune and compelling lyrics.
I am the Walrus: The best song lyrically ever written by The Beatles. The song writing here is sensational.
A Day in the life: My favourite Beatles song of all time. I can't get enough of this track. It has a glorious piano intro into a beautiful ballad, and then it eventually turns into a quick moving song and back again to the original sound. Wonderful.
Overall, you can't go wrong with having all the best hits on 2 Discs, unlesss you own the majority of their studio albums.This is wonderfully compiled and is a great buy for someone knew to the Beatles' music.
Free Music Review: They hope you will enjoy the show!
Hit: 5 Stars
There hasn't been a music group quite like The Beatles. For 8 years the fab four rose up the charts, started Beatle-mania, influenced the way the youth dressed, talked, and grew their hair, and launched a healthy contribution to rock n roll's history. This set of The Beatles greatest hits covers the years of experimentation and progressiveness in lyricism and music, 1967 to the year the band split up, 1970.
The number one single Strawberry Fields Forever/Penny Lane kicks off the compilation. Then, there are four tracks off of 1967's Grammy winning album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the title track along with Little Help From My Friends, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, and A Day In The Life. All You Need Is Love, one of my personal favorites, is also included and it sounds great. Other albums featured are Magical Mystery Tour in four tracks including Fool On The Hill and Hello Goodbye. From 1968's White Album we get Back In The USSR, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, and Obladi Oblada. Abbey Road is represented with Come Together and Here Comes The Sun and from The Beatles final album Let it Be are the title track, Across The Universe and Long And Winding Road. One of the biggest highlights on the album, however, is Hey Jude, the bands biggest selling number one hit single.
For a quick glimpse into The Beatles music and to understand what the big deal was with these four guys from Liverpool, England, this is definitely the album to have. Be sure you get this along with The Beatles 1962-1966.

Free Music Review: Magnifficent Slice of Music History
Hit: 5 Stars
This two-disc album is part 2 of the definitive Best of the Beatles album, the first part being The Beatles 1962-1966
The Beatles 1967-1970 is a fantastic tribute to beautiful music of this great pioneering band in rock and roll, which dominated the musical scene of the 1960's with one magnificent hit after another. Listening to the Beatles really has a feel-good quality about it. In fact all these songs are masterpieces in the history of music. My personal favorites are the melody Penny Lane, the uplifting With a Little Help from My Friends, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, the sad A Day in the Life, the uplifting All You Need is Love, Hey Jude, Revolution - one the best political commentaries ever put into a song, and a damming critique of mindless/soulless radicalism, the meandering While My Guitar Gently Weeps, the catchy OB-LA-DI, OB-LA-DA, Don't Let ME Down, the fantastic Ballad of John and Yoko, Here Comes the Sun and Let It Be.
Music and the world would not have been the same without the Beatles. So get this slice of musical history now!
