All the Beatles albums before Help are subpar.

...except this album.

4 guys in thirty minutes churning out classic rock and roll tunes.
Few other albums really capture the pure rush and influence of Beatlemania as this. The record feels like recorded history.

And smile in approval. Smile A Hard Day's Night is sublime, probably the most perfect pure pop album ever created. I'm sorry, Jason: Help! is very good, but it really pales in comparison.

I'm with Jason on this one, I think this is probably the most overrated Beatles album. The 2nd half is almost unlistenable, IMO, even though the first half is really great.

Help! is still one of my favorites.

Good pop record. Not worth its place in the top 200 though.
