I recently bought brand new Vinyls (Abbey Road and Rubber Soul) both of them are a bit quiet. With other vinyls I don't have it it's just the Beatles ones.

Is it the mixing? Sadly even if I turn the volume all the way up it's still a little bit too quiet.

Is this just the newer ones or a all records like this? Should I buy used older ones in the future to prevent this? Do you noticed the same?

I would like to hear your thoughts

just found this while trying to get my drivers license

I’m going to rate and explain every song on the Beatles debut album. I have never listened to a Beatles album through, and also am a very casual fan. I do not know most of these songs. I will also try to guess the singers. As I am an expert on all things music, this is to be taken as law and will henceforth be the only correct rating. Let’s begin.

I saw her standing there: funky, groovy, catchy. I think this is the Beatles debut. 9/10
Guess: Paul McCartney

Misery: yeah this pretty much sums it all up. Funky love song= Paul. Immediately after you get this song. Pain and suffering=john. Sad lyrics, happy beat. Very early sixties feel. 7.5/10
Guess:John Lennon

Anna (go to him): vocals are sick on this song. Still very groovy, I like the bass lines on this. A song I would dance with someone to. Cover I believe. Another sad song, so gotta be one person.. 8/10
Guess: John Lennon.

Chains: harmonica right out the gate is a choice. Sounds like a rhythm and blues song. Keyboard I think? Pretty cool. Another cover I think. 7/10
Guess: George Harrison

Boys: bass is really sweet on this. Backing vocals are very reminiscent of the 50s. Guitar is cool. 8/10
Guess: Is this ringo?

Ask me why: love the vocals. Very much a love song. Jazzy guitar and bass here. Ringo’s percussion really shines here
8/10
Guess: John Lennon

Please please please me: self titled track. That damn harmonica again lol. loving the chorus of voices. Great self titled track. 9/10
Guess: fuck if I know. John lennon?

Love me do: boy do they love harmonica. I actually like it a lot here. Nice vocals. Starting to really like ringo. Feels like
He drums just enough on every track. 8/10
Guess: Paul McCartney

Ps I love you: cool melody. A bit too much of a sappy song for my taste. Loved how short it was. 7/10
Guess: Paul McCartney

Baby it’s you:
really nice vocals. Like this a lot. 8/10
Guess: John Lennon

Do you want to know a secret: nice opening vocals. I really like the drumming on this one. This guy has my favorite voice so far. 9/10
Guess: George Harrison? Could be John Lennon.

A taste of honey: nice vocals. Not really my thing. Drags in my opinion. 7/10
Guess: Paul McCartney

There’s a place: I love this song. Lyrics sound like a later Beatles song. Two singers? I hear one voice I recognize so I’m going with that. Other could be any of the other three.
Guess: John Lennon

Twist and shout: one of the best closing songs on an album ever in my opinion. John Lennon puts on an amazing vocal performance. 10/10

Saw a quote by George during the Rubber Soul section in my Anthology book talking about that cupboard in Abbey Road and how they always had some weird or unique instruments on their records bc of that cupboard under the stairs.

Made me think of Paul visiting Abbey Road in the 90s and talking about that cupboard too so I’m wondering what instruments they would’ve picked and used on their records because I’m thinking that stopped using that cupboard after Rubber Soul or Revolver maybe?

Anyways I’m always a fan of them using unique instruments on their albums:)

I made a new Beatles song I'm drunk and high goes like this:

I am the Warewolf!

(Whooooo!)

Knight Sir Warewolf!

(Whooooo!)

I am the Eggman!

Coo coo KaChoo Ka Coo Fuckin' Coo!

( I'll work on the verses when I sober up)

Attic find. Fully in tact/undamaged just very dusty. Boys in the house were children in the 1960s, various other records and bits so I reckon it’s an official fan club item? Anybody have any info? UK based if it helps

No photo seems to exist of John with his dad.

I am a massive fan of George and think some of his songwriting contributions are peak Beatles, BUT I also find some of his weak tracks to be more filler than average Lennon/McCartney tracks.

My favourite George tracks:

- Here Comes The Sun
- Long, Long, Long
- Something
- Think For Yourself
- WMGGW
- Don’t Bother Me
- If I Needed Someone
- The Inner Light

Outside of the above I find everything else a little middle of the road.

So I’m asking an honest question, what George songs that never made it onto Beatles albums could actually take the spots of Lennon/McCartney songs?

Ones that spring to mind:

- All Things Must Pass
- Not Guilty
- isn’t It A Pity
- Beware of Darkness
- What Is Life
- My Sweet Lord

Keen to hear your thoughts!

Great song but the intro is so jarring. Can't include it in my playlist on account of not wanting to be jumpscared. Is there a version without the intro?

I have been a lifetime fan of the Beatles, and I’m about to be a dad for the first time… I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on which music to play to my baby girl? Any suggestions are welcome, thank you so much :)

Edit: Thank you so much for all your responses, I didn’t expect this post to get me all emotional, but here I am, making a big playlist and happy crying

I'm curious who might be on the cover if the boys were to release the album in 2027 instead of 1967. I imagine Hitler might have made the cut this time around, but who else? And, yes, the Trump meme was my inspiration for asking.

There are a lot of divisive opinions on this album; specifically The Stones themselves, and some Beatles fans. But, this album feels uniquely outstanding from the rest, and the cover totally reminds a lot of Sgt Pepper. To be fair, if it wasn't for the cover, I think it would received much better than it would and the comparisons won't be clear. Between the Buttons is already a Beatles-esque album though. TSMR feels like if Sgt Pepper and The Piper at Gates of Dawn had a lovechild. I think this album is great. Psychedelic asf.

Love that I can see this in my city.

From Billboard Hot 100, at number five is the Beach Boys' "Fun, Fun, Fun"
