In the early years, the Beatles' albums just got better and better with each release, peaking with Sgt. Pepper. And as much as the Pepper era may seem to have come out of nowhere, you're right. Each album was a step towards it, Revolver being the last step they took before growing facial hair and writing songs about cellophane flowers of yellow and green.Ben Tanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06454095938223850764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26765145.post-32688044409968405102008-01-06T23:32:00.000-05:002008-01-06T23:32:00.000-05:00Are you kidding Ben it was a huge departure, and i...Are you kidding Ben it was a huge departure, and it wasn't the first time they had transitioned from their "Love Me Do" period. Rubber Soul was the first album that displayed a huge change in their music. It had their first non-love song, "Nowhere Man." But, even before then they were slowly evolving. We could discuss this forever though. Revolver was the Beatles' first psychedelic record. It included more abstract songs with deeper meanings and less involving "relationship" themes. It was also the first (and some would say only album)of theirs to include songs about drugs. Either way, like you said before they're all incredible.Chris Decarlohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04291168675685235711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26765145.post-67987172444550872272008-01-06T18:44:00.000-05:002008-01-06T18:44:00.000-05:00Decarlo delenda est.
