Before I start: I'm aware the Beatles wrote Yellow Submarine and Maxwell's Silver Hammer, both of which aren't very good songs.

Does anyone here listen to any of the early Beatles albums? I've had them on non-stop for the past few days. I think they're perfect rocknroll records. They each have a unique individual sound to them, but are all consistent.

Its partly why they're the best. Although something like 'Don't Bother Me' isn't as innovative as 'A Day In The Life', its just as good at fulfilling its purpose.

But people don't tend to talk about the pre-Rubber Soul records very much. What are everyone's favourites though, before it?

Mine's With The Beatles at the moment. Please Please Me was lovely, but WTB is liek the epitomy of a very strong follow-up.
