9. Meet the Beatles always sounds to me like it could have been recorded yesterday.

I've been listening to it since is was first released. I love the energy and the rhythm guitar tones.

I hate all those dirges like Hey Jude and Let It Be they were recording while breaking up. Listen carefully and you can hear a band dissolving note by note.

Thank God they released the BBC stuff, that stuff shows a band at its prime. Like Meet the Beatles.
