The Beatles best. Pure masterpiece.

Better than Sgt. Peppers, Revolver, Rubber Soul, The White Album, etc...

The entire construction of the album if genius. The medley at the end is perfect. It's still a legitimate 9 songs, it's just that they flow together without hesitation for eachother. Really a step forward for the concept of an album.

Come Together is one of the strongest opening tracks for an album in the history of ever and stuff. Then it goes into Something, which is beautiful. Maxwell's Silver Hammer is NOT a weak track, it's quite good. Oh! Darling & Golden Slumbers are my personal favourites off Abbey Road. Golden Slumbers probably being my 2cd or 3rd favourite Beatles song. Here Comes The Sun is colossus. And everything else is still fantastic.

OMG SO PERFECT <3 Dancing

Also, for those of you who have me on last.fm, my dp is a pic of myself and a couple of friends imitating the cover. Smile

Worthy to be cited as one of the best albums ever, anybody who argues is kidding themselves. 100/100, and in my top 10 Smile

Very possibly their best and without question the best of their late '60s output.

When something is over-overrated is it then underrated? Think

In this case the answer would be yes, that would make very much sense.
