6. "Here, There and Everywhere". If I had to pick just one.
The problem is, with the later Beatles albums, I have come to look at each of them as one whole complete work in and of itself.

2. Isn't "Taxman" the SHIT?
Most underrated Beatles song ever, and the best, most concise song George Harrison ever wrote..

10. Yeah!
And if you want to hear the bass-line from "Taxman" lifted hook, line, and sinker, listen to The Jam's "Start"..

3. Can you channel John? Is he pissed that he's funding Michael's
defence?

11. Seriously, if you like mid-sixties music you should check out...

...this song by a band named Joy Zipper (free legal track):

I've only listened to about half the album, but it's pretty good so far.

12. Is happiness a warm gun?
Just curious, because I heard that it can be quite a rush.

14. Was this the album with "Tomorrow Never Knows" on it?
Finally understood the meaning of the words-only took me a lifetime.

16. Great album!
I remember when I was a kid thinking, "There's something going on here!" Rubber Soul had been different, but Revolver was so different! The album cover showed they were no longer the "Fab Four."

17. You don't have that thing right next to your ear, do you?
That thing could kill you if it went off by accident! It doesn't mater how much you paid for that on eBay, it's still dangerous!

um, wait, never mind... :-)
