Both great collections of songs but Revolver for me.
Revolver it is by a country mile.
Any other group releasing songs like Eleanor Rigby, And Your Bird Can Sing or Tomorrow Never Knows could rest well, knowing they'd reached a nirvana. The Beatles didn't. This album is a work of almost unimaginable genius.
Paul Simon at that time was just warming up. What he did on his own later (and still does) is pure gold.
It was called Revolver because the LP revolves (you already know that I’m sure).
BOTW is a great album, but I hate the title track.
Much as I love the Beatles, the prospect of an all Beatles final is like then 2 English teams reach the Champions League final, somehow it loses a bit of excitement
