Put me in the camp of “not aged well” for later Beatles music.
The earlier Beatles is timeless.
“Put me in the camp of “not aged well” for later Beatles music.”
I say it varies song to song. There is plenty of stuff on the later albums that is dated, or misses the mark completely. But there are some gems that still surpass all their earlier stuff in terms of composition, musicianship, production, etc. And while they did use more and more “nonsense” lyrics on the later albums, they also wrote more songs that were introspective and meaningful, not just teen love songs and rockers which were all you got in the early years.
