Hmmmm.... We started with 20 albums, five of which were by the Beatles. We are now down to eight albums...and still five Beatles. I'm beginning to smell a conspiracy, gentlemen, and an already foregone result. Do you remember John Lennon's infamous remark about the Beatles being more famous than Jesus? I shudder at the implications. I've done research, followed clues all over Europe, and I believe I have uncovered a heinous plot. I have proof that clearly puts the Beatles at the center of this centuries old conspiracy:

Yeah, Abbey Road and the White Album are the only two Beatles I'll probably ever someday buy again.

Well, it doesn't mean that I don't like these great albums. But I do like the other ones better. Abbey Road was definately the hardest. If I'd listen to this one and Sgt. Pepper today it could be that I would prefer Abbey Road. Rubber Soul and Revolver are hands down my favourite Beatles albums.
