The End is one of the best rockers ever. Here Comes the Sun. Great stuff. That golden hammer song kind of sucks. Contempating buying the album. The booklet sucks balls. Nothing they could say about the biggest band of all time?

Abbey Road is such a great listen, but I always rate it as probably my least favourite post-Help! release (discounting the Yellow Submarine soundtrack, which basically had Hey Bulldog and nothing much else). The whole second side is amazing, brilliant, it's everything one could ask for from a band wrapped up in one. I think the issue I have with the album stems from "Octopus's Garden" and "I Want You;" it's just 10 minutes of stuff I really don't need to hear for that long. "Octopus's Garden" should have been a minute long, and "I Want You" should have been 4 minutes long. That way I could listen to the album over and over again. I suppose I could just skip those tracks, but that would be an insult to the Beatles, so I wouldn't. My favourite part is the medley though; it's just perfect. You definitely should own it.
