5. Tomorrow Never Knows
Donny
This of course is impossible to pick only five...but here goes..... (JL)
1. Please Please Me
2. A Hard Days Night
3. Lucy in the Sky
4. In My Life
5. A Day in a Life
Picking five is almost impossible, so I'll pick one favorite from each album, or a single from the time of the album, even if the single does not appear on the album.
1) Please Please Please: Please Please Me
2) With the Beatles: This Boy (actually flipside of I Want to Hold Your Hand)
3) A Hard Day's Night: A Hard Day's Night (the early John Lennon was at his best with this album)
4) With the Beatles: I Feel Fine (again not actually on the album but a single from the time of the album.)
5) Help: Help
6) Rubber Soul: Nowhere Man (Rubber Soul - John Lennon's greatest moment. He had moved beyond the limitations of early rock, but even as he was stretching the possibilties of the pop/rock song, he was still working within its confines. Sometimes limitations are good)
7) Revolver: And Your Bird Can Sing (Revolver was, to my mind and ears John Lennon's weakest moment. That album belonged to Paul McCartney. And You're Bird Can Sing is the only Lennon song on it that I really like.)
8) Sgt Pepper's: A Day in the Life
9) Magical Mystery Tour: All You Need Is Love
10) Yellow Submarine: All You Need Is Love (his only other song on this album, Hey Bulldog, is all right but hardly among my favorites)
11) The White Album: Dear Prudence
12) Let It Be: Across the Universe (this was another album that was pretty much Paul McCartney's)
13) Abbey Road: Come Together
