Yes, fifty years ago the Beatles masterwork was released.

I preferred “Rubber Soul”

Just my opinion, but I enjoy Rubber Soul more.
It has been suggested that Rubber Soul and Revolver should’ve been released as a double album. Don’t know why, but that’s what I’ve read here & there.
I think I have 99% of what the Beatles recorded (studio stuff) on my iPod. They are, to me, the greatest band of all time.
Others will disagree.
Others’ disagreement is most welcome, but it won’t change my mind.

The 3 middle period Beatle albums Help, Rubber Soul and Revolver are the group at their peak. They moved beyond their Beatlemania days and started to push pop and rock in new directions.

The best studio produced album of that era was Abbey Road. Makes sense that the Beatles had tons of cash and could afford it. From a technical standpoint it was groundbreaking.

Rubber Soul - no question it’s better than Revolver.

It’s a great album but I hold Abbey Road and Sgt Pepper higher.

That the wheels were coming off, that they were fighting each other, fighting to stay together, fighting to break up, and were still able to make such incredible music, is a tribute to their talent.
To: Donglalinger
I would say The Wall is Floyds 3rd or 4th best album. Piper, Meddle, Wish you were here, The Wall. But the best Floyd album and best Album of all times is Dark Side. Respectively.
