^This. + I'm a sucker for sea shanties, and this absurd take on the genre seen through cabaret lenses has never seemed this stupid to me.
Anyway, great album, always a lot of pleasure listening to it. I'm Only Sleeping and Tomorrow Never Knows are, for the first, lovely, for the second, awesome.

It took over a decade and went through three or four other favorite Beatles albums before definitively deciding this one is the best. Strangely enough my track picks aren't anything like anyone else's. "Here, There and Everywhere", "She Said She Said," "And Your Bird Can Sing," are tops, although the transition from "I Want to Tell You" into "Got to Get You Into My Life" is possibly my favorite part.

In regards to The Beatles and the often misguided idea that they were originators, I imagine they'd be the first to tell you who influenced them. What I love about the Beatles is that they seemed to be first and foremost music fans. They seemed to soak in a pretty wide array of influences into their sound, often in a way that could open doors for artists who didn't have the pop approachability that the Beatles had. The Beatles never really stuck to a tried and true formula but rather instead continued to play around with their music. That made their records more inconsistent than stuff we hear today, but also provided for a lot of spectacular moments. My attachment to Revolver was established early in my childhood and has never faded.

This this this.
And they soaked it in well I might add. Especially as time went on (of course with the sitar being involved).

This is how I describe Kanye West. He's a musical savant, clearly. And his prowess shows. Certainly, The Beatles had years and years playing strip clubs in Hamberg to explore the music of their time, and to really do something cool with it.
