Revolver

Postby GlassOnion on Thu Aug 07, 2008 9:46 pm

This album was rated #1 out of all albums known. My dad got htis cd for Christmas one year from my uncle. The cd got scratched i think. I don't know wher it is now. I just went and baught it at the store new so we have it again. It is so good and has so many good songs on it. Anybody else like this cd?

I think Revolver is a great album. Both Rubber Soul & Revolver were albums where The Beatles were showing the transition to more complicated arrangements and different kinds of songs...
I even like it more than Sgt. Pepper's

oh wow oasis! i stil prefer the beatles' version. I think Oasis done it a bit too monotonous :? [i cant keep a straight face now whenever i see/hear oasis... thanks to mr k! :lol: :wink: ]

Revolver - its not my favourite album... many good songs on it, but i prefer others. I cant agree with you DP, I like Sgt P more... I think sgt P marked their peak as it were.... perhaps not, i need to think about that

Revolver 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
Its got to be one of the greatest albums of all time , not a bad song on it , apart from Yellow sub [ sorry Ringo !] every song would be in my all time favs easy .
Revover must be my joint second Beatles album with the White Album pepper the 1st :D
Try this out
Take out yellow Sub [ sorry Ringo !] and put in Rain and you have one hell of an album 8)
And then over a cup of tea
We talked about whatever that came to our heads
That was delightful, I said

.... oooh , mr Kite, watch out for an Octie coming your way... :lol:

People's favourites albums, from what i noticed, are sgt P, Revolver, White, Abbey rd...

There's something about Revolver and White Album that dont quite make it to the top of my list...

.... I've only got one thing to say: Image Image Image Image

:P :P :P

Hehe, as you can see (and could probably guess anyway) I like Yellow Sub, and it reminds me of the movies too (which I love :D ). We're all different though, so each to their own, and all :)

But you're right about Rain being an awesome song Kitie, I love Rain 8) I think Ringo likes it too - didn't he say sometime that he did his best drumming on Rain?
So sure, add Rain on! (but I'll keep the Sub too :lol: )

Revolver isn't really my favourite, but I do like the songs on it, especially Tomorrow Never Knows, Eleanor Rigby, Gotta Get You Into My Life, Taxman, and Here, There and Everywhere :)

By the way, Honey has a Revolver T-shirt! :D
Would you believe me if I told you I was being followed by a Yellow Submarine?

Sorry Octie ! :oops:
I do like Yellow Sub , its just that its the weakest song on the album and the Fab Four where on top of the game then and to put Rain as a B side well :o
A little story Of Revolver
A very good work mate of mine was a punk rocker and he hated the Beatles , but he had never heard an album of them .
About 6 years later of me telling him he needs to hear the Beatles before he can call them , he had bought a C.D. player [ yeh it was a long time ago ] and i said i going to lend you an album of The Beatles , yep Revolver .
The first C.D. he bought ...yep Revolver :D
I wore him down in the end , and i don`t let him forget it :wink:
And then over a cup of tea

Hahaha, nice story, good work there :)
No need to be sorry Kitie, we're all entitled to our opinions :)
