I'd like to get feedback for the selections (I know something like this can't be perfect and won't please everybody). This isn't just a "collection of my favorite songs in chronological order" kind of list, as sometimes I've changed the order a bit, and I've included some more tracks from the earlier period and omitted some good tracks from the later period (The White Album mostly), though even so, it feels like I went through the pre-Rubber Soul period too quickly 🤔

[quote="Happymeal"]Coming from a disliker of the beatles, I disagree. They have some amazing stuff, really amazing, but they only have a few gems per album.[/quote]
I'm still laughing. Please go on.
I guess I (and countless other famous and unknown musicians) was wrong in studying the art of songwriting with such underachievers :lol:

I only said I dislike The Beatles. I never said they aren't influential(there's no denying that). It's just a personal thing where I dislike bands that aren't always pleasing to my ears and mind(music and lyrics). I like a nice amount of their songs, but the other amount, I don't like.
