It's not too bad. The Beatles were the masters of melody. They came up with songs that had witty lyrics as well, but overall they were so popular because their melodies were so much better than most other musicians.
And they had so many of them. Some musicians are revered because they had maybe five hits or so in their careers. The Beatles must have had over 50 songs on the charts and numerous top ten hits. They had quality AND quantity.

Let It Be was an attempt to get them to record as a group again.

I remember how disappointed I was with Let It Be when it came out. The Long and Winding Road also gives me hives.

Revolver and Rubber Soul. Can’t stand the White Album.

Yes it was great. Thanks. I have Geoff Emerick’s book and it was a great read.
