It's kind of cheating to glue some of your greatest hits to an EP and call it an album, but if Parlophone say this is an album, then I'll take them at their word; it's elligible for this list. Also, it's awesome.
My faves: I Am The Walrus, Blue Jay Way, All You Need Is Love [First added to this chart: 06/20/2012]
