With The Beatles again. Impressively starts out with five great Beatles originals, then delivers three strong covers before it finally moves into weaker territory. The Beatles reveal some maturing with softer songs, but they're still very much like little children compared to those faces appearing on the "Let It Be" LP. However, it won't be long before they turn into a completely different band!

Favourite tracks: "It Won't Be Long" & "All My Loving"

A Christmas gift for you from Phil Spector. That's exactly what it is! A thunderous collection of Christmas standards with Phil Spector's overwhelming wall of sound treatment. The girl vocalists add a cuteness to the holiday classics and the arrangements while certainly not understated are splendid and magically layered. A great collection to knock you into the Christmas spirit!

Favourite tracks: "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" & "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)"

The Beatles' debut! Of course it's an important album! Already from the 1-2-3-4 counting of "I Saw Her Standing There", you know it's gonna be an amazing career. The rushed recording of the album makes it a raw and fresh debut, as a debut should should be.

Favourite tracks: "Please Please Me" & "Do You Want to Know a Secret"

First album with Brian Wilson as fully credited producer showing notable progressions for the band. Something great has definitely happened with the overall sound experience. I would say this album is a little amazing!

Cruise around nicely with this little deuce coupe. As a collection of car songs, some might point at it as an early concept album. Four of the songs were already included on the previous 3 Boys Beach albums, but the rest of the bag is surprisngly strong too. The Beach Boys deliver for the third time in a row in 1963 alone. Impressive!

Favourite tracks: "Little Deuce Coupe", "Cherry, Cherry Coupe" & "409"

Don't think twice, this album is more than all right. Possibly his finest album before he went electric. All the answers you need are blowin' in the wind of this record!

Favourite tracks: "Girl from the North Country" & "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right"

Surfin' with The Beach Boys again. This time, the location is simply the U.S.A. A solid sophomore album that hints at the band's future melancholia and maturity with a song like "Lonely Sea". Unfortunately, the album suffers from too many surf jams and instrumentals.

Favourite tracks: "Lonely Sea" & "Shut Down"
