94. The Beatles- Rubber Soul


I'm going to keep this one short since I already talked about how important the Beatles are to my experience as a music listener. Rubber Soul is a very special album because it is a perfect bridge between the poppier early Beatles and the experimental later Beatles. Every song here is a classic and I love how the album flows seamlessly from track to track. I can't pin down exactly what it is, but this album has a very specific spirit to it, and each track embodies that spirit perfectly. This album has it all: beautiful harmonies and brilliant songwriting and arranging. This album reminds me of my childhood, and for that very reason, I simply couldn't resist putting it on my list. An essential Beatles album.

  1. Dear Nathan,
    I greatly respect your opinion based on what I've read. I would be very happy if you would take a minute to check out my band at www.myspace.com/stealtheprize and if you like what you hear you can download the album for free at http://www,mediafire.com/download.php?zadnl2tyod1 If you would review the album we would be very greatful. Thanks Nathan.
