The greatest, most consistent catalog in music history. When I'm asked what my favorite album of all-time is, I say the Beatles album box set. Their entire body of work is a miracle.
I’d agree to be fair. The only catalogue that doesn’t have one stand out album or a peak so to speak and gets arguably better and better chronologically (putting movie soundtracks aside)
@@AionShanks He was so deep into folk-rock for so long, it is practically in a different category than the Top 40 pop music scene (1960-74), before it splintered into sub-sections.
13: Yellow Submarine (I never even liked the song let alone this album, or the film) 12: With The Beatles (Too many covers and weak songs) 11: Beatles For Sale 10: Please Please Me 9: Magical Mystery Tour 8: Hard Days Night 7: Help 6: Rubber Soul 5: Let It Be (some of Paul's greatest songs but weak for the others) 4: White Album (Many great songs and a few garbage tracks) 3: Sgt Pepper (The sum is better than the parts) 2: Revolver (Every song is great except for Yellow Submarine) 1: Abbey Road. (Perfect Album, including Maxwell. ) All 13 would be another band's greatest masterpiece.
My favorite studio albums are Abbey Rd, Sgt Pepper, White Album, Magical Mystery Tour, and Let it be. Overall, Revolver and Rubber Soul are my all time favorites.
The other astounding thing is all the great songs that were just singles and never appeared on studio albums- I Want To Hold Your Hand, She Loves You, Hey Jude, We Can Work It Out, Day Tripper, Paperback Writer, Lady Madonna etc.
"Something New" (1964) was another album of superb early-love ballads and hard rockers that I bought then, before I bought "Beatles '65" (rel Dec. 1964) the U.S.-North American version of "Beatles For Sale."

@Ames Pelletier The only weak albums in my list are the last two. The rest are pretty solid imo. My friend thinks Beatles for Sale is their best and I have no idea how. There's three solid tracks on that album, and one is a Chuck Berry cover.
The main credit I'd give to Beatles For Sale is it's harmonies. Possibly the best of any Beatles album. Baby's In Black and I Don't Want To Spoil The Party being 2 great examples.
This guys were from another planet. I'm a pianist and composer, studied musical production. I can say I understand the music system and this guys genius is hard to even comprehend. I read that they played 8 hours a day from Monday to Monday. So they had performed approximately 1200 concerts before they were famous. They were masters at 20 years old
Mark Lewisohn goes in to detail in his mammoth "Tune In" book about how The Beatles were pretty much the most experienced rock n roll band in the world even before they made it famous, based on their history of live playing and comparing it to what was happening in other rock n roll scenes around the world.
I would put Revolver at No 1. I actually think Sgt Pepper is a little patchy song wise, especially the second side, although the concept is revolutionary. Abbey Road is up there at 2, and maybe Help! at 3. I actually think Help! is a remarkable consistent album which is a little underrated. It may not be as groundbreaking as some of the later albums, but it is very enjoyable throughout.

Maybe time for my ranking? First, I think there is not really a bad Beatles album.. ok, maybe yellow submarine... my ranking depends on actual mood and may be changing between No. 10 and No. 3 tomorrow.... 13 - Yellow Submarine (Hey bulldog is strong, All Too Much is ok, rest of songs and side 2 is redundant) 12 - For Sale (for me, bad choice of songs and in song order... I would have add the single songs I Feel Fine, She's a Woman and outtake Leave My Kitten alone.. therefore I had dropped Mr. Moonlight, Words of Love and Every Little Thing.. sorry...but the cover art is great.. so iconic 11 - With the Beatles (weaker song writing of Lennon/McCartney songs as the debut, but the cover versions are stronger than the covers on PPM; like PPM hardly listenable via headphones in stereo, but great on a real hifi system with big speakers) 10 - Magical Mystery Tour (very good songs, but it does not work as an album for me) 09 - Please Please Me (maybe the best debut album of a band ever... strong songwriting for the Beatles originals... and what an incredible final track) 08 - Help (brilliant, but two or three fillers...very country..) 07 - Abbey Road (Side two has brilliant moments, but I cannot stand I want you (She's so heavy) and I am not a great fan of Lennon's medley songs - Mean Mr. Mustard is not so good... the McCartney stuff and also the Harrison Songs are just stunning! 06 - Let it Be (my first ever album, I bought with own money ... in 1986 or 87??, still great, even in the spector version - "I Dig a Pygmy, by Charles Hawtrey and The Deaf-Aids.... " what an opener!!! 05 - A Hard Day's Night (only Lennon/McCartney - their first real masterpiece - only a Ringo song is missing) 04 - Rubber Soul (I heard it first when I was 16, I was heavily drunken that night ... oh my god, I felt so sick; I remember this every time I hear the album,, Just great... Beatles go Folk Rock!) 03 - Revolver (wow!! just wow!!!!! incredible!!! the Beatles invented britpop ... not a weak song included) 02 - Sgt. Pepper's ... (maybe the most important album in music history; still so relevant more than 50 years after recording ... very strong songwriting and production.. everything is perfect imo, the cover artwork is so iconic) 01 Th Beatles (aka White Album)... nothing more to say. My all time favorite Album ever... I have 7 different versions on CD (1987, 2009, 2018 remix and needle drops from DESS ...
Hmm. Always gonna be a tough call, and there's likely to be much debate ever the rankings. I think I would be fairly close to your choices. Probably only one or two changes. Like Revolver at number 1. Plus I'd have to argue that while not a studio album as such, I would include Oldies but Goldies in my ranking. Purely because it's the only place in the groups life where you could get the early singles in album form, plus the cracking Bad Boy. I would say it's a bit Magic Mystery Tour ish. Not a real album. But worthy of inclusion for the collection of singles and one off tracks. Great video mate

@@AndrewDixonMusic I agree with your comments about it. And I love It's All Too Much and Hey Bulldog. They're two of the most underrated Beatles songs, in my opinion.

@@AndrewDixonMusic S.V.P can you do a mix of the limeyv lps as well as the yank lps ( till yesterday & today + hey Jude) & the 3 canuck lps as well ....just asking.. That would be cool.
@@AndrewDixonMusic compris mon ami.... Have never seen it & thought it would be very interesting. Even such if you don't have the capital lps box set on CD ( latter one with hey Jude lp ) & les trois canadienne lps on vinyl ( beatlemania/ twist & shout / long tall sally ) ....it would be good for you to hear how they were compiled & sounded.
I know I’m in the minority but I think Abbey Road is overrated. To me the best track is Here comes the sun ( One of my all time favorite songs ) but I don’t think the album is among their best
@ MrBuc128 It is VERY overrated, agreed. Sure, side two is brilliant and side one has the great "Come Together" and "Something". But after "Something", you have four mediocre-to-weak songs in a row on side one, and you can't say that about any other Beatles album. It's still the Beatles and it's still a very good album. But I would only rank 'Beatles for Sale', 'Let It Be', and the 'Yellow Submarine' soundtrack as being below it when ranking the Beatles' albums. Then again, I'm someone who feels that 'Help !' just may be their best album in terms of the overall quality of the songs.
13 - With The Beatles With The Beatles has a few songs that I don't really like - Hold Me Tight, I Wanna Be Your Man, Little Child, and then it has some average songs in my opinion - Devil In Her Heart, You Really Got A Hold On Me. But it does have the classics It Won't Be Long and Money. 12 - Yellow Submarine 11 - Beatles For Sale It has I'm A Loser, Every Little Thing, I Don't Want To Spoil The Party and I'll Follow The Sun, and it also has not so great songs such as Honey Don't, Mr. Moonlight, Words Of Love, and Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby. 10 - Please Please Me 9 - Help! Help has the covers Act Naturally and Dizzy Miss Lizzy. It also has a song I hate on it - Tell Me What You See. 8 - A Hard Day's Night 7 - Let It Be 6 - Magical Mystery Tour 5 - Rubber Soul For some reason, I have never loved this album as much as the following four, but it has Norwegian Wood, Nowhere Man, Girl and In My Life, which I all love. 4 - White Album (The Beatles) It has songs I love - Back In The USSR, Dear Prudence, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness Is A Warm Gun, I'm So Tired, Blackbird, Rocky Raccoon, Mother Nature's Son, Helter Skelter, Honey Pie and Cry Baby Cry, but it has lots of filler too - Wild Honey Pie, Piggies, Why Don't We Do It In The Road, and Revolution 9. 3 - Revolver This used to be my favourite. With Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, I'm Only Sleeping, She Said She Said, For No One, Got To Get You Into My Life, and of course Tomorrow Never Knows at the end. 2 - Abbey Road The medley, man... 1 - Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band No big surprise here. It has the classics With A Little Help From My Friends, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, Getting Better, She's Leaving Home, Within You Without You, When I'm Sixty Four, and the closing track A Day In The Life is what I believe to be the best song ever written. Better than Bohemian Rhapsody. By a lot. This album has no throwaway - not even Good Morning Good Morning, Fixing A Hole and Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite are filler. That's what makes the album so great.
So good to see Please Please Me pretty high, the album is underrated! Anyway, here’s my list, 13. Beatles For Sale 12. Yellow Submarine 11. With The Beatles 10. Let It Be 9. Revolver. 8. A Hard Day’s Night 7. Magical Mystery Tour 6. Please Please Me 5. Help! 4. Rubber Soul 3. Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band 2. Abbey Road 1. The Beatles (The White Album)
When you talked about being in the audience when Paul performed getting better for the first time gave you a few tears? In 2008 in Liverpool I was at the paul concert when he performed a day in the life and I can admit it gave me a few tears too.
I know my overall rankings will be different than most people's in many respects, but I tried to use only one criteria (which is difficult when taking into consideration the Beatles' overall body of work). I've tried to ONLY use what I consider to be the overall consistency and quality of songs on each album, and NOT their historical importance in the history of music, which I think can sometimes throw the rankings of a body of work off-balance and not accurately reflect how good or great the songs on an album are. And no, I'm not suggesting that Andrew Dixon made that mistake. With that in mind, these would be my rankings, with comments when appropriate: 1) 'A Hard Day's Night'. No single Beatles album has more five-star songs (with the exception of the 'White Album', but that's a double album) - the title track, "I Should Have Known Better", "If I Fell", "Can't Buy Me Love", "Any Time at All", "Things We Said Today", "You Can't Do That" and "I'll Be Back" are all masterpieces. And not one track on the album falls below three stars, in my book. Based on that, I rank it as the Beatles' best album. And the energy and sheer joy of the album is undeniable. 2) 'Help!'. I would put the seven songs on side one up against ANY pop or rock album by any artist, including side two of 'Abbey Road'. It's pure pop perfection. And side two is also great, with only one weak moment, in my opinion ("You Like Me Too Much"). 3) 'With the Beatles'. Sure, half of it is covers. But they are also the best covers the Beatles ever did, and no other Beatles album captures their raw rocking energy like this one does. All of the songs, both original and otherwise, are either great or very good, and I think this album features some of the very best vocal performances that John Lennon ever turned in. His voice is so magnificent on "Please Mr. Postman" that it brings tears to my eyes, and the band does such a sterling (and snarling) job on their cover of "Money" that (again, my opinion) it tears "Twist and Shout" to shreds. George Harrison's moody but very danceable "Don't Bother Me" is one of his great, unheralded songs. I don't understand why more people don't rank this album higher. 4) 'Revolver'. It's considered by many to be the Beatles' best, and I do consider it to feature Paul McCartney's very best work on a Beatles album. The reason it's not number one for me is because it has what I consider to be one mediocre track ("Dr. Robert") and two weak ones ("Love You To" and "Yellow Submarine"). In my opinion, these two songs should have been replaced by "Paperback Writer" and "Rain". Had they done that, it would be my number one for sure. 5) 'Rubber Soul'. Again, had the band replaced "What Goes On" and "Run for Your Life" with their single of the time ("Day Tripper" b/w "We Can Work It Out"), this one would rank probably as their second or third best for me. Just as 'Revolver' would feature Paul McCartney's best songs on a Beatles album, I think 'Rubber Soul' does the same with John Lennon's songs. 6) 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'. All I will say here is that this album's magnificence for me is slightly brought down by one song that I consider dreary and ponderous ("Within You Without You") and two that are just mediocre at best ("Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite" and "When I'm Sixty-Four"). Otherwise, a brilliant, wonderful album. 7) 'Magical Mystery Tour'. You can't go wrong with an album that features "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Penny Lane", "I am the Walrus", "All You Need Is Love" and what I consider to be the best of McCartney's nostalgic music-hall type songs, "Your Mother Should Know". 8) 'The Beatles (aka The White Album)'. I count 12 excellent songs, 12 very good songs, 2 mediocre songs, 2 below-par songs and 2 flat-out awful songs ("Wild Honey Pie" and "Revolution 9") on this fascinating, sprawling double album. 9) 'Please Please Me' 10) 'Abbey Road'. Its ranking is hurt for me by the fact that I could easily stop playing side one once "Something" has faded out. But the entirety of side two simply can't be denied. 11) 'Beatles for Sale'. Lots of good stuff here, but only one truly great original - "Eight Days a Week". 12) 'Let It Be' 13) The 'Yellow Submarine' soundtrack

Hey Rob, that's great to read mate. I feel the same about a lot of these ones, see my list further up the line. I am continuously baffled that people fail to see the magic of Hard Day's Night and With The Beatles.

"You could stare at this cover [Sgt. Pepper] for months and still devour it". Wow! You're absolutely correct there! Sgt. Pepper is my #1 favorite album by The Beatles (which means my favorite album by anyone). 100% perfection to me. Though every single song by the Beatles I love. Enjoyed the video -- I'm new to your channel, what are some other bands you like?
I liked it very much...///bringing in the early! '63...album where they had REd hair...for get name was smart...u did it welll....I feel I was so abandoned by my parents...at age 14! and then! wow BEATLES arrived: I knew it was a new world!!!!!!!! And it as.....total social Revolution!

Let It Be, Hard Days Night and Help would be higher up the rankings for me. Top 5, same albums as you, but the irder changes for me depending on how much I’m listening to a particular album.
There was a time I'd have had Abbey Road right up at the top, probably when I was playing it more often like you say. Maybe this year's box set will get it back up higher for me!
The Beatles catalogue is complicated by the different releases in the uk and America. Magical mystery tour was released as a double ep in the uk originally and didn’t have strawberry fields, penny lane or all you need is love. That was released as an album in that form later in America and eventually later versions had them on here
My ranking would be (With Ratings): 13- Yellow Submarine (6.5/10) 12- Beatles For Sale (7.3/10) 11- With The Beatles (7.8/10) 10- Please Please Me (8.6/10) 9- Let It Be (8.8/10) 8- A Hard Day's Night (9.2/10) 7- Help!

My top five would be The White Album Abbey Road Revolver A Hard Day’s Night Magical Mystery Tour I haven’t really decided on the rest because I don’t usually think in those terms for most artists, but the Beatles are an exception on that regard, but only to an extent.
"A Hard Day's Night" (rel. Jul. 10, 1964) for me, including the under-rated George lead, "I'm Happy Just to Dance With You." Also: "Something New" with George's upbeat love song on it (plus "When I Get Home", "Slow Down", "Matchbox" "Things We Said Today, "If I Fell, etc.) "HELP!", "Beatles '65", "Meet The Beatles" and "The Beatles Second Album" with the superb "Money" (John lead, screaming to the skies his love for it) and the incomparable "She Loves You", performed in "A Hard Day's Night" movie.

I think over the years the top 5 albums have been agreed upon, just the order remains elusive. But here is my top 5, No.1 down to No. 5: 1 - Sgt Pepper 2 - Revolver 3 - Abbey Road 4 - Rubber Soul 5 - The White Album I just think there's too many fillers/throwaways/ordinary songs (plus Revolution 9) on the White Album - should have been a single album. Pepper is my desert island album.
16:05 13. Yellow Submarine. 12. Beatles For Sale. 11. With The Beatles. 10. Please Please Me: I considered your argument, I totally understand why you ranked higher than I do, I mean it took them 12 hours only! Which is crazy! Who would be working for 12 hours and do it this perfect not mentioning Lennon was sick that day, and it was their debut album! It's really crazy how they did it! 9. Let It Be: This one could ranked as 12 considering that they were legends already, yet still we have great tracks such as "Across The Universe", "Let It Be" & "I've Got a Feeling" etc which makes rankes higher than other albums. At the same time I'd agree with you if you ranked it much lower. 8. A Hard Day's Night. 7. Magical Mystery Tour. 6. Rubber Soul. 5. Help! Idk how this one would be ranked if it had a better cover like Rubber Soul for instace. 4. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Not as persistent as the top three.... Songs like Good Morning, the two Sgt Pepper's, I'm sorry I just..... They're just not my cup of tea, Getting Better, With a Little Help & Fixing a Hole are decent tracks, She's Leaving Home... Not so easy to listen to, so sad one. But then You have Mr Kite, Lucy, Within You Without You, even Lovely Rita is an enjoyable track I love John & Paul's harmonies, nevertheless it's a revolutionary album, it's the most important album in history it has to be near the top. 3. Abbey Road... I'm sure you'd be pissed off, so I'll keep to myself or rather give you a hint xD I prefer side one. 2. Revolver. 1. The Beatles (The White Album), it's not because it has the best tracks even I love 26/30 of them but it's so diverse I even like Honey Pie & Don't Pass Me By (decent Ringo track, I can't see the strings as annoying as others do, on the contrary).
1. Sgt Peppers 2. The White Album 3. Revolver 4. Magical Mystery Tour 5. Rubber Soul 6. Abbey Road 7. Let It Be 8. Help 9. Hard Day's Night 10. Beatles for Sale
Ok, This is mine 1. Magical Mystery Tour (This is in my top 5 albums of all time) 2. Sgt Pepper (ITS SGT PEPPER!!!) 3. Abby Road (I allows think it’s the most overrated album of all time, and the I re-listen to it. One of the best First Sides in all of music, and One of the best Second Sides in all of music) 4. White (I know some tracks are just fine, but one of the best collection of songs, which lead to one of the best 90 minutes in any piece of entertainment.) 5. Rubber Soul (Some of there best popular songs and underrated tracks) 6 & 7 Tied. Let it Be and Revolver (Allows go back on these. Revolver is so brilliant. And Let It Be is the most amazing messes of all time. Most of the album has some god-tier Beatles songs.) 8. Help! (Yesterday on own, would make this album good. But the rest of the tracks make it fantastic.) 9. Hard Days Night (this when the Beatles became Amazing, love this album, and fun film) 10. Yellow Submarine (I love film scores, and Hey Bulldog, All together, and All to much are excellent songs) 11. Beatles for sale (really over hated. Has some great early tracks.) 12. Please Please Me (there’s a high chance I haven’t finished this album, so this placement is more of a nme thing, then the actual album) 13. With the Beatles (2/3 of the songs are good to great, but 1/3 are some are just fine) I don’t think there’s a bad Beatles album, and I would say lowest rating I would give to a Beatles album is a 7/10. Every album has some great music on it, and Hard Days Night and everything above it, are brilliant, and are some my favorite albums.

My List is as followers : Revolver # 1 Sgt. Pepper's # 2 Abby Road # 3 The White Album # 4 With The Beatles # 5 A Hard Day's Night # 6 Help # 7 Please Please Me # 8 Beatles For Sale # 9 Rubber Soul #10 Magical Mystery Tour #11 Let It Be #12 Yellow Submarine # 13 That's how I see it I would like to put in the two Past Masters at the bottom as they had tracks not on any Album including my very favourite track Rain, plus other like Bad Boy on Oldies but goldies in Australia we had never heard that track till that album came out, I, also like too add Let It Be Naked as I love this more than the original Let It Be. Thank you for your great list and other videos. Rocking Eddie
1 Abbey Road 2 sgt pepper 3 White Album 4 Revolver 5 Rubber Soul 6 let it be 7 Help 8 Hard Days Night 9 Magical Mystery Tour 10 With The Beatles 11 Beatles for Sale 12 Please Please Me 13 yellow submarine
I agree with you about ‘Let it Be’. I was 13 in 1969 and I only had nine albums, all Beatles albums. ‘Let it Be’ was disappointing when I first heard it. Too much filler. John and George’s song contributions on the album aren’t strong. The white album is great but I loath Revolution No 9. I was such a fan back then that I still played this track over and over! Side two is stunningly varied and great - ten songs(?). Sgt Peppers has Fixing a Hole and She’s Leaving Home which are okay but not songs I like listening too a lot! The second Side of Abbey Road is brilliant- but I give Her Majesty a miss.
Beatles For Sale is underrated,there are still good songs on it like "I Don't Want To Spoil The Party" and "Follow The Sun". Sorry,"A Hard Day's Night" at number 10?There isn't a dud on it and could play it multiple times a day,every day."I Should Have Known Better" anyone?
I concur with Tim Riley when he writes that Pepper is the Beatle's Mona Lisa and that Revolver is their best album, for sturdier material--to my ears, it sounds like a greatest hits compilation; hence: | Revolver | Pepper | White | Rubber | Abbey | Please | Hard | Help | Magical | Be | With | Sale | Submarine |.
Here is my list from best to worst. Rubber Sole, Revolver, White, Abby road, Sargent pepper, Let it be, Magical Mystery tour, Help, A Hard days night, Please Please me, With the Beatles, Beatles for sale, Yellow Submarine. I love the Beatles ever since I heard the parody letter B from Sesame Street. I feel that my top 9 from 9 to one are just try to out do the one that came before
Your rankings were spot on except for me I would have switched Hard Days Night with Help and swapped Sgt. Peppers with their first album. Just nit picking I know. There is no wrong order.
My top 5: 5) rubber soul 4) revolver 3) sgt pepper 2) white album 1) Abbey road I’m not sure I’d have let it be as low as this, but I don’t disagree that it’s in the bottom half. What truly makes that ridiculous is that let it be is my favorite song of all time. So…
The White Album or The Beatles,call it what you will, is no doubt a great album with such a wide variety and number of tracks.However there are three tracks which I skip when I'm not in the mood(Revolution 9 being the main one).
Thanks for your ranking Andrew - very interesting!! A couple of things from me : I don't really regard "Magical Mystery Tour" as a "proper" album - as it was never intended that way (as good as it is). Also i think "Yellow Submarine" should have come out around August 1968 - with some of the already recorded songs from the White Album sessions put on side 2 instead of the instrumentals. This would have also tied in with the release of the film. The "White Album" should have been a single album IMO. I'll always put "Beatles For Sale" above "Hard Days Night. Even though "Sale" had some covers, the approach lyrically & musically was very fresh. I feel on "AHDN" , the original formula was starting to get a bit stale by the 3rd album. Though there are some great, very fresh songs such as "Things We Said Today" & "I'll Be Back". No. 1 for me: "Abbey Road". No. 2: "Rubber Soul". No. 3: "Sgt. Pepper". My rankings for the others always change.
I will start off with my ranking by ranking my favorite Beatles compilation albums Number 10 I’m ranking my favorite Beatles album based on how many tracks there are becaus being a music collector than I am I’d love to have more songs so I can have ours an hours of listening to music. I will start off with my number 10 pic is the agent album it’s a good album because you get songs that weren’t released on any of the Beatles albums especially in the UK and that album came out in 1970 in the US and I believe that came out in the UK and 79 the climb I have about it is that there’s not enough songs because there’s only 10 tracksNo I wanna help you could fit 17 songs up possibly 19 on vinyl that would be just fine that’s why I’m ranking the agent album is my 10th compilation Beatles album now my number nine probably won’t be surprising to some of those who are reading my ranking of the Beatles compilation albums but the number and nine position goes to rock ‘n’ roll music The reason why I put it at number nine is because of this horrible album cover I don’t know what capital records was thinkingWhen I put up this horrible album cover which has to do with Coca-Cola and some Sam’s on the album cover that is just crazy I don’t know what that’s all about this album cover use the stuff from the 1950s which I don’t think since the album any better as far as the album cover that was such a good double album but capital records should use the Hamburg photographs that the Beatles used or were taken by one of the Beatles friends name Astrid care care who took a lot of photographs of the Beatles back in the early days that would fit really well but there’s some great songs on there like helter-skelter Twist and Shout I love the fact that George Martin was able to try to remix the Beatles music because he didn’t like how the music was pinned having the instruments on the last side and the vocals on the right especially with songs like twist and shout and boys among others and it’s still a great album now a lot of songs on it and my number eight album compilation Beatles album would have to be the love songs album it’s a good album but it doesn’t have as many songs on it and some of the songs seem out of place like she’s leaving home for example some of the other songs if you’re going to make a compilation album that has the Beatles love songs why not put all of the love songs from the earliest to the later ones in your career which half of their catalog has to do with love songs I would definitely put in from me to you thank you girl eight days a week and I would also put in I love you too that would work and I would put in please please me as well and ask me why those would be great putting onto a love songs compilation albumNumber seven I went with the Beatles rarities album it’s a really good album although capital could’ve used more songs I think Capitol short cheated the fancier in America because of the fact that you don’t have as many songs as the UK version did think the UK version has 17 songs which is a great TracklistingOne of the things I really love is when I bought the Beatles rarities album I bought it from one of my favorite music stores Music Millennium here in Portland Oregon it was great this was the first time I had ever heard of and I love her I love the guitar solo with six measures as opposed to four which was only available in the German version of a hard days night and it’s a great song by the way and Penny Lane what a fantastic song and I love the fact that you finally get to hear the floating trumpet solo at the end that was chopped off of the master which was totally a shame but it’s still a good song nonetheless and the sad thing about it was when the Beatles rarities came out it was sad that EMI and capital couldn’t give us our tax like you can now they could use all the different versions of songs which would’ve been good to hear but I’m glad it’s all clear it out now to where rare outtakes could be released it is still a good album.
Revolver is Number 1 Sorry that was rank the Greatest Album ever by fellow Musicians who know Music !! It changed everything about recording music including sound effects Etc. Fact not Opinion
11) Please Please Me 10) With The Beatles 09) A Hard Days Night 08) Beatles For Sale 07) Help 06) Rubber Soul 05) Revolver 04) Sgt Peppers 03) The Beatles 02) Let It Be 01) Abbey Road MMT and YS don't count. MMT is a compilation album. YS is 1/2 Beatles 1/2 George Martin.
My next favorite Beatles compilation album Number six would have to be the Beatles past masters volume one and cute it’s a really great album because you have all the Beatles singles and the piece that were never released on any album except in America probably even with bad boy which was the first time Americans got to hear it. I love the fact that you get to hear a different version of love me do featuring the first version which was released as a single featuring the session drummer and the white that’s a great version and what you don’t hear are the handclaps and the Ringo Starr version as you do in the single version I bought this album when it first came out I only had buying one I never had time to open till I bought the Beatles box set from 2009 and a model box that as well. I was really grateful to have the Beatles past Masters volumes one and two which is a great compilation album if you wanna get deeper into the Beatles catalog and you want to have all the singles in one place this is the way to go What a great way to start with love me do going all the way through to I’m down, I had never heard of the Beatles singing in German up until I bought the Beatles past masters compilation albums. I love the fact that you get to hear the Beatles singing I want to hold your hand and she loves you in German and what’s really cool is you get to hear both stereo and mono mixes. Then on volume two of the past Masters going from day tripper all the way through to let it be to you know my name look up the number what a great listening experience. My next Beatles album number five it would have to be the Beatles red and the blue albums 1962 to 1966 and 1967 to 1970, I had bought those albums when they were remastered in 1993 they were in a Juul case. Which was very bulky at the time but it’s still a good album nonetheless I was so surprised to hear how good the final version from 2014 was I love the fact that the Beatles red and the blue albums were remastered first as a CD remastered from the digging packs and then getting to hear them for the first time on vinyl I first bought the final version from the US copy from capital recordsThen I bought them the Beatles red and the blue album at my favorite music store Music Millennium here in Portland Oregon. When I bought the Beatles albums I couldn’t wait to hear how they sounded, when I listen to those albums I was grateful to hear how well they sounded and I love the fact, that all the engineers at Abbey Rd., USD regional master tapes which I think what should be done to all the Beatles stereo releases for those who love vinyl records every song on both compilations is fantastic and I think those two albums and also the past masters are the way to go for new Beatles fans for those who want to get more into their music. Every song is fantastic from love me do all the way to yellow submarine and then go in from Strawberry Fields forever all the way to the long and winding road what a great compilation album to support album setsWhat was great to start the Beatles red and the blue albums came at a time when there was a compilation album that was going to be released on TV from the TV and what not which was called alpha and omega and I’m glad that Apple records decided to put a stop to that because when you’re dealing with a company like Apple records you don’t want to mess with them legally I think it’s still a good album and the next album on my list would have to be the Beatles anthology that would be number four on the list of the Beatles best compilation albums What a pleasure to hear two new Beatles songs it was the three of the Beatles reuniting even though John Lennon was murdered I love the fact that they were able to use John Lennon demos what songs like free as a bird and real love, those are some really good songs that start off the Beatles anthology and then to hear some rare recordings that were never released like one song from Stewart that clip and a few songs from Paul McCartney‘s living room from 1964 so that was a fantastic thing to hear and this was the first time I had heard of the Tony Sheridan recordings I had never heard them before that made me want to get the Beatles with Tony Sheridan which I have on CD and vinyl.It’s great to hear my bunny cry for a shadow and ain’t she sweet and I love hearing the live performances from Sweden from the Shell which they performed with a queen in the audience and the Ed Sullivan show and the show from Sweden which is six numbers and all The Beatles anthology albums are great especially hearing me out takes the highlights for me would have to be take one of tomorrow never knows and also hearing three different versions of Strawberry Fields forever which is great and then on volume three hearing the song because from the Abbey Road album A cappella it was fantastic and then ending the Beatles anthology double CD sets with the end is great especially tacking onto the piano part of the day in the life which is great and I think the Beatles anthology would have to be one of the best documentary DVDs ever because it’s the Beatles telling her own story.My third favorite Beatles compilation album it would have to be the Beatles yellow submarine song track I think hard am I in Capitol used the songs that were used in the film from the Beatles it would’ve been a good album but I love the original version two but I think the yellow submarine song track surpasses the original at every level, including Bing remixed which I think for the first time all of the Beatles music was right next to using the original master tapes which is great which brings out so much clarity in the songs including yellow submarine and I love the fact that you get to hear John Lennon’s refrain of a life of these finally restored in the remix versionWhen you hear the stereo version of the yellow submarine from the revolver and even on the album itself yellow submarine John Lennon’s response from Ringo’s first line is not there the second line is faded in a manner mix you hear Ringo Starr saying as we live a life of ease John Lennon‘s line is there in the mono mix but not under stereo mix for some reason and I love all the songs from the album including a bulldog it’s all too much only a Northern song and I think all together now is a good song. And also on the yellow submarine song the guitar part acoustic guitar comes in right at the same time as the vocals but in the stereo mix the guitar comes in a little bit late. That is a really good compilation album and if anyone wants to take a deeper dive into the Beatles music besides the Beatles past masters lines one and two in the red and the blue album is the next album for those are new to Beatles music it would have to be the Beatles one compilation that’s my second favorite beetle population I love that album because it has all their child hits since they had seven number one songs in England and 20 in America so you get a worldwide domination of Beatles number one. All the songs are great not just from the 2000 release but I even love the 2015 remixed version which is a little bit different including hearing the drums and the base on can’t buy me love in the middle same thing with paperback writer as well. And the album was remixed by Giles Martin speaking of Giles Martin he did a great job with my number one all-time favorite Beatles compilation album it would have to be love what a great album that is. There is a really good documentary called altogether now it’s about the making of the surf to Soleil show what a great album that is the Beatles love and I love the fact that not only are all the songs remixed but there are a bunch of mash ups of different songs as well the highlights for me would have to be tomorrow never knows based on the drums using the vocals on with the new without you that is fantastic they could’ve used the whole song within you without you using that and I love the fact that you get to hear a drive my car the Word and what you’re doing all mashed up in one song and I love the strawberry fields forever version because it uses three different versions from the early demo which no one had heard up until this point then using some of the early takes including take seven and take 26 and I love how at the end of the song, George Martin and Giles Martin use other songs as well including the trombone solo album Sergeant peppers lonely hearts club band and Penny Lane and then using the piano solo on in my life from rubber soul then going into piggies along with hello goodbye on top of that the hell up with iPhone calls then I love the here comes the Sun the inner light transition and I also love at the end of come together you have dear prudence and cry baby cry used at the end One of the greatest things that George Martin did before he passed away which was adding strings to the George Harrison demo while my guitar gently weeps that is a great version right there the whole album is great from start to finish Night Shift on CD but on vinyl those are my favorite Beatles compilation albums.
Here are my favorite Beatles albums from the core catalog Number 13 I am going to go with the Beatles yellow submarine it’s a good album but half of the album is not the Beatles especially on site too and I love the charge mine orchestra but it’s just not the Beatles at the end of the day I would have to agree with you Andrew there are some good songs on there like a bulldog it’s all too much only a Northern song is a good one and all together now and at number 12 it would have to be the Beatles let it be albumI’m going off of the Beatles studio albums based on how many songs there are and what I think should be on there or not I like the album let it be it’s a really good album but the only thing is is that I don’t know why I thought Spectre didn’t put in don’t let me down what should’ve been on the album which is a great song there are some good songs on the light at B album across the universe the long and winding road I’m in mine and I’ve got a feeling that’s a great song. And then get back my favorite part of the song get back is that the end where John Lennon says I like to thank you on behalf of the group on ourselves and I hope we pass the audition which got some great laughs at the end. Number 11 select B would be number 12 number 11 would be the Beatles magical mystery tour it’s actually a really good album so many good songs on there magical mystery tour I am the walrus Hella goodbye all you need is love, Strawberry Fields forever one of the greatest songs ever along with Penny Lane and baby you’re a Rich Man. This shows you of how kind of a band the Beatles were and what songs they could create. And I think that the fact that the Beatles magical mystery tour of the whole album is part of the core catalog it shows you how good capital records could be when they decided to put all the songs together. Number 10 it would be the Beatles for sale album that’s a good album even though it was recorded at the end of 1964.There are some good songs on there like I don’t wanna spoil the party what you’re doing every little thing I’ll follow the Sun that’s a great song, and no reply rock ‘n’ roll music I love his version of that and a days a week what a classic song that especially with the fading intro. Trail Number nine would have to be the Beatles second album with The Beatles what a great album that is and there’s so much energy throughout the whole album it’s great especially with songs like it won’t be long I want to be your Man money that’s what I want it’s one of the great covers that John Lennon dead and there are some really fantastic songs on this album even George’s first contribution which was don’t bother me. Number eight would be the Beatles help album what a great album this is what songs like yesterday one of the most covered songs ever and I need you you like me too much and help what a great song the night before you’ve got to hide your love away especially with the flute solo at the end. And ticket to ride what a great song that is.My next album number seven would be rubber soul what a great album it was certainly a game changer for them because they really started to experiment with the music especially on Norwegian Wood and using mature lyrics with songs like thanks for yourself in my life one of the greatest songs ever one of my top 100 favorite best Beatles song never and I especially love the piano cello that George Martin played because he couldn’t play it slow enough it was sped up at half speed that’s a great album. My next album would have to be revolver what a great album this is going from taxman to Dr. Robert to tomorrow never knows wow what a fantastic album it is all the way through including she said she said here there and everywhere well they were really on fire with this one in the next album is going to be Sergeant peppers lonely heart coffee and tea with a little help from my friends I think every song on this album is great and the album cover is fantastic as well What a great album closer to have a day in the life one of the best songs ever it’s a fantastic song all the way through The next album would have to be a hard days night there’s so much energy on this album it’s a really fantastic album from a hard days night too I should’ve known better, can’t buy me love things we said today it’s a good album and it’s a great movie too. I love the fact that a hard days night starts with the amazing one guitar chord in the way Paul McCartney and John Lennon sings harmony is fantastic and I also love the song if I fell and I love her and my next favorite album would have to be their debut with the Beatles it’s an amazing feet even today that any band could record their album in one day and the Beatles recorded 10 of the 14 songs all in one night I think one of the best cover versions of Twist and Shout would have to be the Beatles version because I love the fact that John Lennon really yelled at the end of it because he could only do one and a half goes of the song since he was sick and he was singing all day and when you’re sick and you don’t sound very well it could be very difficult, but I’m glad that the Beatles managed to record a great debut album what a great debut album to open with I saw her standing there and then to close with Twist and Shout I think it’s one of the strongest albums ever. My next albumMy next favorite album would have to be Abbey Road what a great album that is not only from the album cover but also the fact that you have some of the greatest songs ever including come together something here comes the sun and the Abbey Road medley on site you as one of the best pieces of music but the Beatles has ever created if not the best ever. There is such great music all the way through and I even love I want you she’s so heavy using the white noise at the end of it which was a synthesizer I believe another course that would be number two and number one album would have to be the Beatles White album album if I had one album to listen to if I was stuck on any island it would have to be the white album because there’s so much on there you got helter-skelter you got revolution nine you got piggy to get a bloody avatar, and you got Julia and long long long The white album is a great album to listen to even the deluxe box that is good and it’s amazing that John Lennon and Yoko Ono decided to use original tape loops for revolution nine way before computers were even invented I think it’s one of the greatest avant-garde pieces ever and it’s a fantastic album especially with the great two openers back in the USSR and dear prudence while my guitar gently weeps there’s so much good stuff on it it’s a fantastic album.
Nicely done. Good to see Please Please Me so high, but A Hard Day's Night and Help! below With The Beatles is....interesting! But what's your favourite Bond film??
Thanks James! Was a tough call, and even taking in to account my 2 least favourite Beatles songs are on With The Beatles! Favourite Bond film? One of my very first videos was on just that subject! th-cam.com/video/cnYZLBs8oBI/w-d-xo.html

HI Rami, a good idea for long term, unlikely to be soon though. Although I've got all the US albums, and am familiar with some of the differences, at this moment in time I'm not sure I know the subject well enough! I'd have to include mono/stereo differences also I think if/when I do it!

The greatest, most consistent catalog in music history. When I'm asked what my favorite album of all-time is, I say the Beatles album box set. Their entire body of work is a miracle.
bob dylan's first 15 years are a close second
I’d agree to be fair. The only catalogue that doesn’t have one stand out album or a peak so to speak and gets arguably better and better chronologically (putting movie soundtracks aside)
@@AionShanks He was so deep into folk-rock for so long, it is practically in a different category than the Top 40 pop music scene (1960-74), before it splintered into sub-sections.
Let It Be is in my top 5. It's raw and unfiltered Beatles. Two Of Us I Got A Feeling, For You Blue...brilliant
The Beauty of the Beatles is... There is NO bad album. 👍
I've always found TWA too scattered. If it would have been condensed to the best songs put on one album it would be my number one
13: Yellow Submarine (I never even liked the song let alone this album, or the film)
12: With The Beatles (Too many covers and weak songs)
11: Beatles For Sale
10: Please Please Me
9: Magical Mystery Tour
8: Hard Days Night
7: Help
6: Rubber Soul
5: Let It Be (some of Paul's greatest songs but weak for the others)
4: White Album (Many great songs and a few garbage tracks)
3: Sgt Pepper (The sum is better than the parts)
2: Revolver (Every song is great except for Yellow Submarine)
1: Abbey Road. (Perfect Album, including Maxwell. )
All 13 would be another band's greatest masterpiece.
Are you a fan?
I really adore HELP! It's in my top 3 with Abbey Road and Rubber Soul
My favorite studio albums are Abbey Rd, Sgt Pepper, White Album, Magical Mystery Tour, and Let it be. Overall, Revolver and Rubber Soul are my all time favorites.
The other astounding thing is all the great songs that were just singles and never appeared on studio albums- I Want To Hold Your Hand, She Loves You, Hey Jude, We Can Work It Out, Day Tripper, Paperback Writer, Lady Madonna etc.
Absolutely! Past Masters are great albums in their own right.
The American album Hey Jude is a good one as well.
"Something New" (1964) was another album of superb early-love ballads and hard rockers that I bought then, before I bought "Beatles '65" (rel Dec. 1964) the U.S.-North American version of "Beatles For Sale."
13. Yellow Submarine
12. Beatles for Sale
11. Let It Be
10. With the Beatles

@Ames Pelletier I completely forgot I did this ranking. I'm gonna edit this.
@Ames Pelletier The only weak albums in my list are the last two. The rest are pretty solid imo. My friend thinks Beatles for Sale is their best and I have no idea how. There's three solid tracks on that album, and one is a Chuck Berry cover.
The main credit I'd give to Beatles For Sale is it's harmonies. Possibly the best of any Beatles album. Baby's In Black and I Don't Want To Spoil The Party being 2 great examples.
@@AndrewDixonMusic True but With the Beatles has great harmonies too. Especially All My Loving.
This guys were from another planet. I'm a pianist and composer, studied musical production. I can say I understand the music system and this guys genius is hard to even comprehend.
I read that they played 8 hours a day from Monday to Monday. So they had performed approximately 1200 concerts before they were famous. They were masters at 20 years old
Mark Lewisohn goes in to detail in his mammoth "Tune In" book about how The Beatles were pretty much the most experienced rock n roll band in the world even before they made it famous, based on their history of live playing and comparing it to what was happening in other rock n roll scenes around the world.
Certainly they are a good example of the Rule of 10,000.
I would put Revolver at No 1. I actually think Sgt Pepper is a little patchy song wise, especially the second side, although the concept is revolutionary. Abbey Road is up there at 2, and maybe Help! at 3. I actually think Help! is a remarkable consistent album which is a little underrated. It may not be as groundbreaking as some of the later albums, but it is very enjoyable throughout.
HIs rankings, and mention those ranked by Rolling Stone mag. list of Top 500 Albums:

Maybe time for my ranking? First, I think there is not really a bad Beatles album.. ok, maybe yellow submarine... my ranking depends on actual mood and may be changing between No. 10 and No. 3 tomorrow....
13 - Yellow Submarine (Hey bulldog is strong, All Too Much is ok, rest of songs and side 2 is redundant)
12 - For Sale (for me, bad choice of songs and in song order... I would have add the single songs I Feel Fine, She's a Woman and outtake Leave My Kitten alone.. therefore I had dropped Mr. Moonlight, Words of Love and Every Little Thing.. sorry...but the cover art is great.. so iconic
11 - With the Beatles (weaker song writing of Lennon/McCartney songs as the debut, but the cover versions are stronger than the covers on PPM; like PPM hardly listenable via headphones in stereo, but great on a real hifi system with big speakers)
10 - Magical Mystery Tour (very good songs, but it does not work as an album for me)
09 - Please Please Me (maybe the best debut album of a band ever... strong songwriting for the Beatles originals... and what an incredible final track)
08 - Help (brilliant, but two or three fillers...very country..)
07 - Abbey Road (Side two has brilliant moments, but I cannot stand I want you (She's so heavy) and I am not a great fan of Lennon's medley songs - Mean Mr. Mustard is not so good... the McCartney stuff and also the Harrison Songs are just stunning!
06 - Let it Be (my first ever album, I bought with own money ... in 1986 or 87??, still great, even in the spector version - "I Dig a Pygmy, by Charles Hawtrey and The Deaf-Aids.... " what an opener!!!
05 - A Hard Day's Night (only Lennon/McCartney - their first real masterpiece - only a Ringo song is missing)
04 - Rubber Soul (I heard it first when I was 16, I was heavily drunken that night ... oh my god, I felt so sick; I remember this every time I hear the album,, Just great... Beatles go Folk Rock!)
03 - Revolver (wow!! just wow!!!!! incredible!!! the Beatles invented britpop ... not a weak song included)
02 - Sgt. Pepper's ... (maybe the most important album in music history; still so relevant more than 50 years after recording ... very strong songwriting and production.. everything is perfect imo, the cover artwork is so iconic)
01 Th Beatles (aka White Album)... nothing more to say. My all time favorite Album ever... I have 7 different versions on CD (1987, 2009, 2018 remix and needle drops from DESS ...
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is my favorite too! It has aged like fine wine.
Let's be honest, it doesn't really matter what order you put these in. Even the Beatles' worst was better than anyone else's best.
Hmm. Always gonna be a tough call, and there's likely to be much debate ever the rankings. I think I would be fairly close to your choices. Probably only one or two changes. Like Revolver at number 1.
Plus I'd have to argue that while not a studio album as such, I would include Oldies but Goldies in my ranking. Purely because it's the only place in the groups life where you could get the early singles in album form, plus the cracking Bad Boy. I would say it's a bit Magic Mystery Tour ish. Not a real album. But worthy of inclusion for the collection of singles and one off tracks.
Great video mate
Cheers! Sure is a tough call trying to put some of these albums down at numbers 3 and 4, but something has to go there!
Revolver is my number one.Tied with Rubber Soul if there's such a thing here,as you can't separate the two.

@@AndrewDixonMusic I agree with your comments about it. And I love It's All Too Much and Hey Bulldog. They're two of the most underrated Beatles songs, in my opinion.
@@andyjacobs28 Absolutely!!
I love the way you present your own ranking: so unassuming, so unpretentious, so friendly! One questiom, though: why rank the Beatkes albums? Each one of them is so different and has a life and personality of its own,,,All of them, top of the list

@@AndrewDixonMusic S.V.P can you do a mix of the limeyv lps as well as the yank lps ( till yesterday & today + hey Jude) & the 3 canuck lps as well ....just asking..
That would be cool.
Thanks for the suggestion but that's probably something best left to someone who knows the non UK versions a lot better than I do!
@@AndrewDixonMusic compris mon ami....
Have never seen it & thought it would be very interesting.
Even such if you don't have the capital lps box set on CD ( latter one with hey Jude lp ) & les trois canadienne lps on vinyl ( beatlemania/ twist & shout / long tall sally ) ....it would be good for you to hear how they were compiled & sounded.
I know I’m in the minority but I think Abbey Road is overrated. To me the best track is Here comes the sun ( One of my all time favorite songs ) but I don’t think the album is among their best
@ MrBuc128 It is VERY overrated, agreed. Sure, side two is brilliant and side one has the great "Come Together" and "Something". But after "Something", you have four mediocre-to-weak songs in a row on side one, and you can't say that about any other Beatles album. It's still the Beatles and it's still a very good album. But I would only rank 'Beatles for Sale', 'Let It Be', and the 'Yellow Submarine' soundtrack as being below it when ranking the Beatles' albums.
Then again, I'm someone who feels that 'Help !' just may be their best album in terms of the overall quality of the songs.
"With The Beatles" was the first Beatles album I found in my parents' record collection when I was ten.
#2 overall rel. in Nov. 1963, after Please Please Me, their first, rel. in Mar. 1963
13 - With The Beatles
With The Beatles has a few songs that I don't really like - Hold Me Tight, I Wanna Be Your Man, Little Child, and then it has some average songs in my opinion - Devil In Her Heart, You Really Got A Hold On Me. But it does have the classics It Won't Be Long and Money.
12 - Yellow Submarine
11 - Beatles For Sale
It has I'm A Loser, Every Little Thing, I Don't Want To Spoil The Party and I'll Follow The Sun, and it also has not so great songs such as Honey Don't, Mr. Moonlight, Words Of Love, and Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby.
10 - Please Please Me
9 - Help!
Help has the covers Act Naturally and Dizzy Miss Lizzy. It also has a song I hate on it - Tell Me What You See.
8 - A Hard Day's Night
7 - Let It Be
6 - Magical Mystery Tour
5 - Rubber Soul
For some reason, I have never loved this album as much as the following four, but it has Norwegian Wood, Nowhere Man, Girl and In My Life, which I all love.
4 - White Album (The Beatles)
It has songs I love - Back In The USSR, Dear Prudence, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness Is A Warm Gun, I'm So Tired, Blackbird, Rocky Raccoon, Mother Nature's Son, Helter Skelter, Honey Pie and Cry Baby Cry, but it has lots of filler too - Wild Honey Pie, Piggies, Why Don't We Do It In The Road, and Revolution 9.
3 - Revolver
This used to be my favourite. With Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, I'm Only Sleeping, She Said She Said, For No One, Got To Get You Into My Life, and of course Tomorrow Never Knows at the end.
2 - Abbey Road
The medley, man...
1 - Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
No big surprise here. It has the classics With A Little Help From My Friends, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, Getting Better, She's Leaving Home, Within You Without You, When I'm Sixty Four, and the closing track A Day In The Life is what I believe to be the best song ever written. Better than Bohemian Rhapsody. By a lot. This album has no throwaway - not even Good Morning Good Morning, Fixing A Hole and Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite are filler. That's what makes the album so great.
So good to see Please Please Me pretty high, the album is underrated! Anyway, here’s my list, 13. Beatles For Sale 12. Yellow Submarine 11. With The Beatles 10. Let It Be 9. Revolver. 8. A Hard Day’s Night 7. Magical Mystery Tour 6. Please Please Me 5. Help! 4. Rubber Soul 3. Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band 2. Abbey Road 1. The Beatles (The White Album)
Morning Andrew ,
I would have also put Yellow Submarine at number 13 on the Album list
I agree with you about the Medley on Abbey Road.
When you talked about being in the audience when Paul performed getting better for the first time gave you a few tears? In 2008 in Liverpool I was at the paul concert when he performed a day in the life and I can admit it gave me a few tears too.
I know my overall rankings will be different than most people's in many respects, but I tried to use only one criteria (which is difficult when taking into consideration the Beatles' overall body of work). I've tried to ONLY use what I consider to be the overall consistency and quality of songs on each album, and NOT their historical importance in the history of music, which I think can sometimes throw the rankings of a body of work off-balance and not accurately reflect how good or great the songs on an album are. And no, I'm not suggesting that Andrew Dixon made that mistake.
With that in mind, these would be my rankings, with comments when appropriate:
1) 'A Hard Day's Night'. No single Beatles album has more five-star songs (with the exception of the 'White Album', but that's a double album) - the title track, "I Should Have Known Better", "If I Fell", "Can't Buy Me Love", "Any Time at All", "Things We Said Today", "You Can't Do That" and "I'll Be Back" are all masterpieces. And not one track on the album falls below three stars, in my book. Based on that, I rank it as the Beatles' best album. And the energy and sheer joy of the album is undeniable.
2) 'Help!'. I would put the seven songs on side one up against ANY pop or rock album by any artist, including side two of 'Abbey Road'. It's pure pop perfection. And side two is also great, with only one weak moment, in my opinion ("You Like Me Too Much").
3) 'With the Beatles'. Sure, half of it is covers. But they are also the best covers the Beatles ever did, and no other Beatles album captures their raw rocking energy like this one does. All of the songs, both original and otherwise, are either great or very good, and I think this album features some of the very best vocal performances that John Lennon ever turned in. His voice is so magnificent on "Please Mr. Postman" that it brings tears to my eyes, and the band does such a sterling (and snarling) job on their cover of "Money" that (again, my opinion) it tears "Twist and Shout" to shreds. George Harrison's moody but very danceable "Don't Bother Me" is one of his great, unheralded songs. I don't understand why more people don't rank this album higher.
4) 'Revolver'. It's considered by many to be the Beatles' best, and I do consider it to feature Paul McCartney's very best work on a Beatles album. The reason it's not number one for me is because it has what I consider to be one mediocre track ("Dr. Robert") and two weak ones ("Love You To" and "Yellow Submarine"). In my opinion, these two songs should have been replaced by "Paperback Writer" and "Rain". Had they done that, it would be my number one for sure.
5) 'Rubber Soul'. Again, had the band replaced "What Goes On" and "Run for Your Life" with their single of the time ("Day Tripper" b/w "We Can Work It Out"), this one would rank probably as their second or third best for me. Just as 'Revolver' would feature Paul McCartney's best songs on a Beatles album, I think 'Rubber Soul' does the same with John Lennon's songs.
6) 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'. All I will say here is that this album's magnificence for me is slightly brought down by one song that I consider dreary and ponderous ("Within You Without You") and two that are just mediocre at best ("Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite" and "When I'm Sixty-Four"). Otherwise, a brilliant, wonderful album.
7) 'Magical Mystery Tour'. You can't go wrong with an album that features "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Penny Lane", "I am the Walrus", "All You Need Is Love" and what I consider to be the best of McCartney's nostalgic music-hall type songs, "Your Mother Should Know".
8) 'The Beatles (aka The White Album)'. I count 12 excellent songs, 12 very good songs, 2 mediocre songs, 2 below-par songs and 2 flat-out awful songs ("Wild Honey Pie" and "Revolution 9") on this fascinating, sprawling double album.
9) 'Please Please Me'
10) 'Abbey Road'. Its ranking is hurt for me by the fact that I could easily stop playing side one once "Something" has faded out. But the entirety of side two simply can't be denied.
11) 'Beatles for Sale'. Lots of good stuff here, but only one truly great original - "Eight Days a Week".
12) 'Let It Be'
13) The 'Yellow Submarine' soundtrack
Your rankings can be done in any way that works for you Robert! Would be interested to see them (unless I've missed them somewhere else here) 🙂👍
@@AndrewDixonMusic If you click on "Read More", then my rankings are listed. I got a little carried away with all of my explanations of why I ranked them the way I did !
Hey Rob, that's great to read mate. I feel the same about a lot of these ones, see my list further up the line. I am continuously baffled that people fail to see the magic of Hard Day's Night and With The Beatles.

"You could stare at this cover [Sgt. Pepper] for months and still devour it". Wow! You're absolutely correct there!
Sgt. Pepper is my #1 favorite album by The Beatles (which means my favorite album by anyone). 100% perfection to me. Though every single song by the Beatles I love.
Enjoyed the video -- I'm new to your channel, what are some other bands you like?
I liked it very much...///bringing in the early! '63...album where they had REd hair...for get name was smart...u did it welll....I feel I was so abandoned by my parents...at age 14! and then! wow BEATLES arrived: I knew it was a new world!!!!!!!! And it as.....total social Revolution!

Those top 4 could be in any order whatsoever and it would be difficult to argue with!
Let It Be, Hard Days Night and Help would be higher up the rankings for me. Top 5, same albums as you, but the irder changes for me depending on how much I’m listening to a particular album.
There was a time I'd have had Abbey Road right up at the top, probably when I was playing it more often like you say. Maybe this year's box set will get it back up higher for me!
The Beatles catalogue is complicated by the different releases in the uk and America. Magical mystery tour was released as a double ep in the uk originally and didn’t have strawberry fields, penny lane or all you need is love. That was released as an album in that form later in America and eventually later versions had them on here

I haven’t really decided on the rest because I don’t usually think in those terms for most artists, but the Beatles are an exception on that regard, but only to an extent.
"Please Please Me" never fails to cheer me up with the opening track-"I Saw Her Standing There"-"One,Two,Three,Fawww!!"
"A Hard Day's Night" (rel. Jul. 10, 1964) for me, including the under-rated George lead, "I'm Happy Just to Dance With You." Also: "Something New" with George's upbeat love song on it (plus "When I Get Home", "Slow Down", "Matchbox" "Things We Said Today, "If I Fell, etc.) "HELP!", "Beatles '65", "Meet The Beatles" and "The Beatles Second Album" with the superb "Money" (John lead, screaming to the skies his love for it) and the incomparable "She Loves You", performed in "A Hard Day's Night" movie.

I think over the years the top 5 albums have been agreed upon, just the order remains elusive. But here is my top 5, No.1 down to No. 5:
1 - Sgt Pepper
2 - Revolver
3 - Abbey Road
4 - Rubber Soul
5 - The White Album
I just think there's too many fillers/throwaways/ordinary songs (plus Revolution 9) on the White Album - should have been a single album. Pepper is my desert island album.
16:05
13. Yellow Submarine.
12. Beatles For Sale.
11. With The Beatles.
10. Please Please Me: I considered your argument, I totally understand why you ranked higher than I do, I mean it took them 12 hours only! Which is crazy! Who would be working for 12 hours and do it this perfect not mentioning Lennon was sick that day, and it was their debut album! It's really crazy how they did it!
9. Let It Be: This one could ranked as 12 considering that they were legends already, yet still we have great tracks such as "Across The Universe", "Let It Be" & "I've Got a Feeling" etc which makes rankes higher than other albums.
At the same time I'd agree with you if you ranked it much lower.
8. A Hard Day's Night.
7. Magical Mystery Tour.
6. Rubber Soul.
5. Help!
Idk how this one would be ranked if it had a better cover like Rubber Soul for instace.
4. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Not as persistent as the top three.... Songs like Good Morning, the two Sgt Pepper's, I'm sorry I just..... They're just not my cup of tea, Getting Better, With a Little Help & Fixing a Hole are decent tracks, She's Leaving Home... Not so easy to listen to, so sad one.
But then You have Mr Kite, Lucy, Within You Without You, even Lovely Rita is an enjoyable track I love John & Paul's harmonies, nevertheless it's a revolutionary album, it's the most important album in history it has to be near the top.
3. Abbey Road... I'm sure you'd be pissed off, so I'll keep to myself or rather give you a hint xD I prefer side one.
2. Revolver.
1. The Beatles (The White Album), it's not because it has the best tracks even I love 26/30 of them but it's so diverse I even like Honey Pie & Don't Pass Me By (decent Ringo track, I can't see the strings as annoying as others do, on the contrary).
1. Sgt Peppers
2. The White Album
3. Revolver
4. Magical Mystery Tour
5. Rubber Soul
6. Abbey Road
7. Let It Be
8. Help
9. Hard Day's Night
10. Beatles for Sale
Ok, This is mine
1. Magical Mystery Tour (This is in my top 5 albums of all time)
2. Sgt Pepper (ITS SGT PEPPER!!!)
3. Abby Road (I allows think it’s the most overrated album of all time, and the I re-listen to it. One of the best First Sides in all of music, and One of the best Second Sides in all of music)
4. White (I know some tracks are just fine, but one of the best collection of songs, which lead to one of the best 90 minutes in any piece of entertainment.)
5. Rubber Soul (Some of there best popular songs and underrated tracks)
6 & 7 Tied. Let it Be and Revolver (Allows go back on these. Revolver is so brilliant. And Let It Be is the most amazing messes of all time. Most of the album has some god-tier Beatles songs.)
8. Help! (Yesterday on own, would make this album good. But the rest of the tracks make it fantastic.)
9. Hard Days Night (this when the Beatles became Amazing, love this album, and fun film)
10. Yellow Submarine (I love film scores, and Hey Bulldog, All together, and All to much are excellent songs)
11. Beatles for sale (really over hated. Has some great early tracks.)
12. Please Please Me (there’s a high chance I haven’t finished this album, so this placement is more of a nme thing, then the actual album)
13. With the Beatles (2/3 of the songs are good to great, but 1/3 are some are just fine)
I don’t think there’s a bad Beatles album, and I would say lowest rating I would give to a Beatles album is a 7/10. Every album has some great music on it, and Hard Days Night and everything above it, are brilliant, and are some my favorite albums.
From favorite to least favorite: R, AHDN, RS, WTB, AR, MMT, TB/WA, H, SPLHCB, PPM, LIB, BFS, YS.

That's how I see it I would like to put in the two Past Masters at the bottom as they had tracks not on any Album including my very favourite track Rain, plus other like Bad Boy on Oldies but goldies in Australia we had never heard that track till that album came out, I, also like too add Let It Be Naked as I love this more than the original Let It Be. Thank you for your great list and other videos. Rocking Eddie

I agree with you about ‘Let it Be’. I was 13 in 1969 and I only had nine albums, all Beatles albums. ‘Let it Be’ was disappointing when I first heard it. Too much filler. John and George’s song contributions on the album aren’t strong. The white album is great but I loath Revolution No 9. I was such a fan back then that I still played this track over and over! Side two is stunningly varied and great - ten songs(?). Sgt Peppers has Fixing a Hole and She’s Leaving Home which are okay but not songs I like listening too a lot! The second Side of Abbey Road is brilliant- but I give Her Majesty a miss.
Beatles For Sale is underrated,there are still good songs on it like "I Don't Want To Spoil The Party" and "Follow The Sun".
Sorry,"A Hard Day's Night" at number 10?There isn't a dud on it and could play it multiple times a day,every day."I Should Have Known Better" anyone?
I concur with Tim Riley when he writes that Pepper is the Beatle's Mona Lisa and that Revolver is their best album, for sturdier material--to my ears, it sounds like a greatest hits compilation; hence: | Revolver | Pepper | White | Rubber | Abbey | Please | Hard | Help | Magical | Be | With | Sale | Submarine |.
Here is my list from best to worst. Rubber Sole, Revolver, White, Abby road, Sargent pepper, Let it be, Magical Mystery tour, Help, A Hard days night, Please Please me, With the Beatles, Beatles for sale, Yellow Submarine. I love the Beatles ever since I heard the parody letter B from Sesame Street. I feel that my top 9 from 9 to one are just try to out do the one that came before
Your rankings were spot on except for me I would have switched Hard Days Night with Help and swapped Sgt. Peppers with their first album. Just nit picking I know. There is no wrong order.
My top 5: 5) rubber soul 4) revolver 3) sgt pepper 2) white album 1) Abbey road
I’m not sure I’d have let it be as low as this, but I don’t disagree that it’s in the bottom half. What truly makes that ridiculous is that let it be is my favorite song of all time. So…
The White Album or The Beatles,call it what you will, is no doubt a great album with such a wide variety and number of tracks.However there are three tracks which I skip when I'm not in the mood(Revolution 9 being the main one).
Thanks for your ranking Andrew - very interesting!! A couple of things from me : I don't really regard "Magical Mystery Tour" as a "proper" album - as it was never intended that way (as good as it is). Also i think "Yellow Submarine" should have come out around August 1968 - with some of the already recorded songs from the White Album sessions put on side 2 instead of the instrumentals. This would have also tied in with the release of the film. The "White Album" should have been a single album IMO.
I'll always put "Beatles For Sale" above "Hard Days Night. Even though "Sale" had some covers, the approach lyrically & musically was very fresh. I feel on "AHDN" , the original formula was starting to get a bit stale by the 3rd album. Though there are some great, very fresh songs such as "Things We Said Today" & "I'll Be Back".
No. 1 for me: "Abbey Road". No. 2: "Rubber Soul". No. 3: "Sgt. Pepper". My rankings for the others always change.
I will start off with my ranking by ranking my favorite Beatles compilation albums Number 10 I’m ranking my favorite Beatles album based on how many tracks there are becaus being a music collector than I am I’d love to have more songs so I can have ours an hours of listening to music. I will start off with my number 10 pic is the agent album it’s a good album because you get songs that weren’t released on any of the Beatles albums especially in the UK and that album came out in 1970 in the US and I believe that came out in the UK and 79 the climb I have about it is that there’s not enough songs because there’s only 10 tracksNo I wanna help you could fit 17 songs up possibly 19 on vinyl that would be just fine that’s why I’m ranking the agent album is my 10th compilation Beatles album now my number nine probably won’t be surprising to some of those who are reading my ranking of the Beatles compilation albums but the number and nine position goes to rock ‘n’ roll music The reason why I put it at number nine is because of this horrible album cover I don’t know what capital records was thinkingWhen I put up this horrible album cover which has to do with Coca-Cola and some Sam’s on the album cover that is just crazy I don’t know what that’s all about this album cover use the stuff from the 1950s which I don’t think since the album any better as far as the album cover that was such a good double album but capital records should use the Hamburg photographs that the Beatles used or were taken by one of the Beatles friends name Astrid care care who took a lot of photographs of the Beatles back in the early days that would fit really well but there’s some great songs on there like helter-skelter Twist and Shout I love the fact that George Martin was able to try to remix the Beatles music because he didn’t like how the music was pinned having the instruments on the last side and the vocals on the right especially with songs like twist and shout and boys among others and it’s still a great album now a lot of songs on it and my number eight album compilation Beatles album would have to be the love songs album it’s a good album but it doesn’t have as many songs on it and some of the songs seem out of place like she’s leaving home for example some of the other songs if you’re going to make a compilation album that has the Beatles love songs why not put all of the love songs from the earliest to the later ones in your career which half of their catalog has to do with love songs I would definitely put in from me to you thank you girl eight days a week and I would also put in I love you too that would work and I would put in please please me as well and ask me why those would be great putting onto a love songs compilation albumNumber seven I went with the Beatles rarities album it’s a really good album although capital could’ve used more songs I think Capitol short cheated the fancier in America because of the fact that you don’t have as many songs as the UK version did think the UK version has 17 songs which is a great TracklistingOne of the things I really love is when I bought the Beatles rarities album I bought it from one of my favorite music stores Music Millennium here in Portland Oregon it was great this was the first time I had ever heard of and I love her I love the guitar solo with six measures as opposed to four which was only available in the German version of a hard days night and it’s a great song by the way and Penny Lane what a fantastic song and I love the fact that you finally get to hear the floating trumpet solo at the end that was chopped off of the master which was totally a shame but it’s still a good song nonetheless and the sad thing about it was when the Beatles rarities came out it was sad that EMI and capital couldn’t give us our tax like you can now they could use all the different versions of songs which would’ve been good to hear but I’m glad it’s all clear it out now to where rare outtakes could be released it is still a good album.
Revolver is Number 1 Sorry that was rank the Greatest Album ever by fellow Musicians who know Music !! It changed everything about recording music including sound effects Etc. Fact not Opinion
Yes Revolver is amazing, no complaints from me there!

MMT and YS don't count. MMT is a compilation album. YS is 1/2 Beatles 1/2 George Martin.
I can tell from that list that you think they continued to get better and better with each album they made! 😀
My next favorite Beatles compilation album Number six would have to be the Beatles past masters volume one and cute it’s a really great album because you have all the Beatles singles and the piece that were never released on any album except in America probably even with bad boy which was the first time Americans got to hear it. I love the fact that you get to hear a different version of love me do featuring the first version which was released as a single featuring the session drummer and the white that’s a great version and what you don’t hear are the handclaps and the Ringo Starr version as you do in the single version I bought this album when it first came out I only had buying one I never had time to open till I bought the Beatles box set from 2009 and a model box that as well.
I was really grateful to have the Beatles past Masters volumes one and two which is a great compilation album if you wanna get deeper into the Beatles catalog and you want to have all the singles in one place this is the way to go
What a great way to start with love me do going all the way through to I’m down, I had never heard of the Beatles singing in German up until I bought the Beatles past masters compilation albums. I love the fact that you get to hear the Beatles singing I want to hold your hand and she loves you in German and what’s really cool is you get to hear both stereo and mono mixes.
Then on volume two of the past Masters going from day tripper all the way through to let it be to you know my name look up the number what a great listening experience. My next Beatles album number five it would have to be the Beatles red and the blue albums 1962 to 1966 and 1967 to 1970, I had bought those albums when they were remastered in 1993 they were in a Juul case. Which was very bulky at the time but it’s still a good album nonetheless I was so surprised to hear how good the final version from 2014 was I love the fact that the Beatles red and the blue albums were remastered first as a CD remastered from the digging packs and then getting to hear them for the first time on vinyl I first bought the final version from the US copy from capital recordsThen I bought them the Beatles red and the blue album at my favorite music store Music Millennium here in Portland Oregon.
When I bought the Beatles albums I couldn’t wait to hear how they sounded, when I listen to those albums I was grateful to hear how well they sounded and I love the fact, that all the engineers at Abbey Rd., USD regional master tapes which I think what should be done to all the Beatles stereo releases for those who love vinyl records every song on both compilations is fantastic and I think those two albums and also the past masters are the way to go for new Beatles fans for those who want to get more into their music. Every song is fantastic from love me do all the way to yellow submarine and then go in from Strawberry Fields forever all the way to the long and winding road what a great compilation album to support album setsWhat was great to start the Beatles red and the blue albums came at a time when there was a compilation album that was going to be released on TV from the TV and what not which was called alpha and omega and I’m glad that Apple records decided to put a stop to that because when you’re dealing with a company like Apple records you don’t want to mess with them legally I think it’s still a good album and the next album on my list would have to be the Beatles anthology that would be number four on the list of the Beatles best compilation albums
What a pleasure to hear two new Beatles songs it was the three of the Beatles reuniting even though John Lennon was murdered I love the fact that they were able to use John Lennon demos what songs like free as a bird and real love, those are some really good songs that start off the Beatles anthology and then to hear some rare recordings that were never released like one song from Stewart that clip and a few songs from Paul McCartney‘s living room from 1964 so that was a fantastic thing to hear and this was the first time I had heard of the Tony Sheridan recordings I had never heard them before that made me want to get the Beatles with Tony Sheridan which I have on CD and vinyl.It’s great to hear my bunny cry for a shadow and ain’t she sweet and I love hearing the live performances from Sweden from the Shell which they performed with a queen in the audience and the Ed Sullivan show and the show from Sweden which is six numbers and all The Beatles anthology albums are great especially hearing me out takes the highlights for me would have to be take one of tomorrow never knows and also hearing three different versions of Strawberry Fields forever which is great and then on volume three hearing the song because from the Abbey Road album A cappella it was fantastic and then ending the Beatles anthology double CD sets with the end is great especially tacking onto the piano part of the day in the life which is great and I think the Beatles anthology would have to be one of the best documentary DVDs ever because it’s the Beatles telling her own story.My third favorite Beatles compilation album it would have to be the Beatles yellow submarine song track I think hard am I in Capitol used the songs that were used in the film from the Beatles it would’ve been a good album but I love the original version two but I think the yellow submarine song track surpasses the original at every level, including Bing remixed which I think for the first time all of the Beatles music was right next to using the original master tapes which is great which brings out so much clarity in the songs including yellow submarine and I love the fact that you get to hear John Lennon’s refrain of a life of these finally restored in the remix versionWhen you hear the stereo version of the yellow submarine from the revolver and even on the album itself yellow submarine John Lennon’s response from Ringo’s first line is not there the second line is faded in a manner mix you hear Ringo Starr saying as we live a life of ease John Lennon‘s line is there in the mono mix but not under stereo mix for some reason and I love all the songs from the album including a bulldog it’s all too much only a Northern song and I think all together now is a good song. And also on the yellow submarine song the guitar part acoustic guitar comes in right at the same time as the vocals but in the stereo mix the guitar comes in a little bit late.
That is a really good compilation album and if anyone wants to take a deeper dive into the Beatles music besides the Beatles past masters lines one and two in the red and the blue album is the next album for those are new to Beatles music it would have to be the Beatles one compilation that’s my second favorite beetle population I love that album because it has all their child hits since they had seven number one songs in England and 20 in America so you get a worldwide domination of Beatles number one.
All the songs are great not just from the 2000 release but I even love the 2015 remixed version which is a little bit different including hearing the drums and the base on can’t buy me love in the middle same thing with paperback writer as well. And the album was remixed by Giles Martin speaking of Giles Martin he did a great job with my number one all-time favorite Beatles compilation album it would have to be love what a great album that is. There is a really good documentary called altogether now it’s about the making of the surf to Soleil show what a great album that is the Beatles love and I love the fact that not only are all the songs remixed but there are a bunch of mash ups of different songs as well the highlights for me would have to be tomorrow never knows based on the drums using the vocals on with the new without you that is fantastic they could’ve used the whole song within you without you using that and I love the fact that you get to hear a drive my car the Word and what you’re doing all mashed up in one song and I love the strawberry fields forever version because it uses three different versions from the early demo which no one had heard up until this point then using some of the early takes including take seven and take 26 and I love how at the end of the song, George Martin and Giles Martin use other songs as well including the trombone solo album Sergeant peppers lonely hearts club band and Penny Lane and then using the piano solo on in my life from rubber soul then going into piggies along with hello goodbye on top of that the hell up with iPhone calls then I love the here comes the Sun the inner light transition and I also love at the end of come together you have dear prudence and cry baby cry used at the end One of the greatest things that George Martin did before he passed away which was adding strings to the George Harrison demo while my guitar gently weeps that is a great version right there the whole album is great from start to finish Night Shift on CD but on vinyl those are my favorite Beatles compilation albums.
Here are my favorite Beatles albums from the core catalog Number 13 I am going to go with the Beatles yellow submarine it’s a good album but half of the album is not the Beatles especially on site too and I love the charge mine orchestra but it’s just not the Beatles at the end of the day I would have to agree with you Andrew there are some good songs on there like a bulldog it’s all too much only a Northern song is a good one and all together now and at number 12 it would have to be the Beatles let it be albumI’m going off of the Beatles studio albums based on how many songs there are and what I think should be on there or not I like the album let it be it’s a really good album but the only thing is is that I don’t know why I thought Spectre didn’t put in don’t let me down what should’ve been on the album which is a great song there are some good songs on the light at B album across the universe the long and winding road I’m in mine and I’ve got a feeling that’s a great song. And then get back my favorite part of the song get back is that the end where John Lennon says I like to thank you on behalf of the group on ourselves and I hope we pass the audition which got some great laughs at the end. Number 11 select B would be number 12 number 11 would be the Beatles magical mystery tour it’s actually a really good album so many good songs on there magical mystery tour I am the walrus Hella goodbye all you need is love, Strawberry Fields forever one of the greatest songs ever along with Penny Lane and baby you’re a Rich Man.
This shows you of how kind of a band the Beatles were and what songs they could create. And I think that the fact that the Beatles magical mystery tour of the whole album is part of the core catalog it shows you how good capital records could be when they decided to put all the songs together. Number 10 it would be the Beatles for sale album that’s a good album even though it was recorded at the end of 1964.There are some good songs on there like I don’t wanna spoil the party what you’re doing every little thing I’ll follow the Sun that’s a great song, and no reply rock ‘n’ roll music I love his version of that and a days a week what a classic song that especially with the fading intro. Trail Number nine would have to be the Beatles second album with The Beatles what a great album that is and there’s so much energy throughout the whole album it’s great especially with songs like it won’t be long I want to be your Man money that’s what I want it’s one of the great covers that John Lennon dead and there are some really fantastic songs on this album even George’s first contribution which was don’t bother me. Number eight would be the Beatles help album what a great album this is what songs like yesterday one of the most covered songs ever and I need you you like me too much and help what a great song the night before you’ve got to hide your love away especially with the flute solo at the end.
And ticket to ride what a great song that is.My next album number seven would be rubber soul what a great album it was certainly a game changer for them because they really started to experiment with the music especially on Norwegian Wood and using mature lyrics with songs like thanks for yourself in my life one of the greatest songs ever one of my top 100 favorite best Beatles song never and I especially love the piano cello that George Martin played because he couldn’t play it slow enough it was sped up at half speed that’s a great album. My next album would have to be revolver what a great album this is going from taxman to Dr. Robert to tomorrow never knows wow what a fantastic album it is all the way through including she said she said here there and everywhere well they were really on fire with this one in the next album is going to be Sergeant peppers lonely heart coffee and tea with a little help from my friends I think every song on this album is great and the album cover is fantastic as well
What a great album closer to have a day in the life one of the best songs ever it’s a fantastic song all the way through The next album would have to be a hard days night there’s so much energy on this album it’s a really fantastic album from a hard days night too I should’ve known better, can’t buy me love things we said today it’s a good album and it’s a great movie too. I love the fact that a hard days night starts with the amazing one guitar chord in the way Paul McCartney and John Lennon sings harmony is fantastic and I also love the song if I fell and I love her and my next favorite album would have to be their debut with the Beatles it’s an amazing feet even today that any band could record their album in one day and the Beatles recorded 10 of the 14 songs all in one night I think one of the best cover versions of Twist and Shout would have to be the Beatles version because I love the fact that John Lennon really yelled at the end of it because he could only do one and a half goes of the song since he was sick and he was singing all day and when you’re sick and you don’t sound very well it could be very difficult, but I’m glad that the Beatles managed to record a great debut album what a great debut album to open with I saw her standing there and then to close with Twist and Shout I think it’s one of the strongest albums ever. My next albumMy next favorite album would have to be Abbey Road what a great album that is not only from the album cover but also the fact that you have some of the greatest songs ever including come together something here comes the sun and the Abbey Road medley on site you as one of the best pieces of music but the Beatles has ever created if not the best ever.
There is such great music all the way through and I even love I want you she’s so heavy using the white noise at the end of it which was a synthesizer I believe another course that would be number two and number one album would have to be the Beatles White album album if I had one album to listen to if I was stuck on any island it would have to be the white album because there’s so much on there you got helter-skelter you got revolution nine you got piggy to get a bloody avatar, and you got Julia and long long long The white album is a great album to listen to even the deluxe box that is good and it’s amazing that John Lennon and Yoko Ono decided to use original tape loops for revolution nine way before computers were even invented I think it’s one of the greatest avant-garde pieces ever and it’s a fantastic album especially with the great two openers back in the USSR and dear prudence while my guitar gently weeps there’s so much good stuff on it it’s a fantastic album.
Revolver, Rubber Soul, Abbey Road, Sgt. Peppers...
Nicely done. Good to see Please Please Me so high, but A Hard Day's Night and Help! below With The Beatles is....interesting! But what's your favourite Bond film??
Thanks James! Was a tough call, and even taking in to account my 2 least favourite Beatles songs are on With The Beatles!
Favourite Bond film? One of my very first videos was on just that subject! th-cam.com/video/cnYZLBs8oBI/w-d-xo.html
@@AndrewDixonMusic Thanks! Check out my Beatle James channel if you have time. Will check out your other vids.
Et tu Andrew... MMT not an album, you can rewrite history as much as you like, but it is when you come to ranking the Beatles catalogue that it sticks out as an anomaly.

John's voice was shot by the time "Twist and Shout" came around,as we all know.
Must do a Beatles ranking video myself. I certainly enjoyed yours... Anyway, hope you are well and keeping safe. Keep making the videos.
Hard Day's Night.Nooo!Not number 10.Sorry.
Everyone 's least favorite is "yellow submarine". That's never a surprise
Always found Pepper overrated. Abbey Road is their best by far.
Hey Bulldog is the best!They're all having a great time recording it.
I noticed that you like the Bends from Radiohead. I love that album too. That album alongside OK Computer and the White Album are my all time favorite music albums.
I could quite easily have all 3 of those well inside my top 10, and 2 of them in my top 5.
My top 5 are:
Sergeant pepper
Let it be
Rubber soul
Abbey road
magical mystery tour
Sgt peppers is a grossly overrated album. It has some great songs but overall they made better albums in my opinion
I definitely agree that Yellow Submarine and Beatles for Sale are their weakest.
sg peper is a worst beatles allbum, only yellow submerin is worst, exep[ song a day in life
Everyone puts Yellow Submarine on 13. Me too.
Rubber Soul was WAY too low
Smh 🤦🏾♂️
You've Got To Hide Your Love Away is the best one on Help.

Wow I didn't know Gilbert Gottfried was a fan of the Beatles
Yes they could have that cover if they wanted,they are The Beatles after all.
Hey Andrew could you do a video on the American releases I would to hear your take on those. I myself like some of them
HI Rami, a good idea for long term, unlikely to be soon though. Although I've got all the US albums, and am familiar with some of the differences, at this moment in time I'm not sure I know the subject well enough! I'd have to include mono/stereo differences also I think if/when I do it!
