My opinion, and I am quite unanimous is this . . . is the the Beatles evolved along with their music so that my rankings for their best albums is in line with their chronological releases.
The 1964-66 group could never have created Abbey Road.
And for those that believe the Beatles are overrated it should be remembered that what they did, they did with antiquated equipment - and did things that no other group even dreamed of at that time with what they had.
Amen.
Enjoyed your reference to ‘Are You Being Served?’ I met John Inman at a book signing only a few years before he passed away. He still looked like he did on the old TV show and was quite sweet and pleasant with the crowd.
