rjw63 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 @bickster will be creaming at this one. In my defence, I've never heard it all the way through so I'm going to see if the hype is real. Plus it cost me nothing (for the interested it's a mid-90's repress with cardboard "cut-out" insert) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 It’s a very good album no doubting that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Mos Def over rated. It's OK at best. Sgt Peppers, my wife commented this: 'It's shite, turn it off" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not their most accomplished work but deserves its praise. Bit dated mind but it’s of its era . Edited June 3, 2023 by Rugeley Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 SPLHCB is a top 3 Beatles album for me. It’s easy to be dismissive but it is in my opinion a phenomenal album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't say much for the other two! it's OK, not as bad as Bicks makes out but not as good as everyone seems to think. IMO, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Said this before... I don't think the beatles have a stone cold killer album where every track is brilliant and it's a complete 10/10 Sgt pepper is one of their best but even then there's 3 maybe 4 completely forgettable songs on there, their other albums usually have 5 maybe 6 tracks that I'd consider filler Not completely knocking them, when you throw the good stuff together, with a lot of non album stuff, my beatles play list is huge and I listen to it at least once a week but I very rarely put an album on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Definitely a band that got more interesting as they consumed more drugs. I have no Beatles albums as such, somewhere I have CD 3 of the Beatles anthology stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, of course. Absolutely comes down to opinion. I agree it’s not the zenith of music but after Let it be and Abbey Road for me. Then after Sgt Pepper it’s Rubber Soul and Help. I think my love of it should be discounted like a 5 star review on Amazon as the Beatles remain one of my favourite bands, in the same way you discount one star reviews from Liverpool based Villa supporters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit like Pet Sounds, which inspired this record. Pet Sounds is great, one of the best, but probably doesn't get in my Beach Boys top 5. Just my opinion though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
