Has everything - invention, craft, musical brilliance, superb production (4 more)
The eclectic mix of styles and moods from the gloriously feel-good here Comes the Sun to the curious Octopus' Garden
Utterly timeless
Vocal performances and harmonies are consistently stunning with special mention to 'Because'
George Martin's genius shines through again. Technically decades before its time.
In my humble opinion, the greatest album of all time

Abbey Road by The Beatles
1969 | Rock
Rolling Stone's 14th greatest album of all time
This is the beginning of the Beatles' onslaught on the top 500 list in earnest. Their final recordings, it is a really diverse set of songs, from the superb Come Together, to the very different tone of Here Comes the Sun. A fair number of McCartney's "grannie songs" (not my words, the words of John Lennon) spoil this as an album overall.

Abbey Road is one of the best Beatles albums ever produced
This is a classic record, with a slight moodier undertone than Revolver and a follow on from the White Album. "Come Together" and "I Want You" are some of the standout bluesy tracks, swinging their Stratocaster and Gibson guitars into a minor key. Not to mention "Here Comes The Sun" which changes the feel entirely. An absolute work of art.

Sometimes it just all comes together for a singer and a song. Evangeline reminds us of Ark, with a similar feel for catchy harmonies and a gorgeous voice, but the guitar pocket here is very old-school, and it sounds like a mix by Daniel Lanois. It just all melts together like a plastic toy in the sun.

Some really deep and percussive bass synth keeps this one right on the money.

Lydia Evangeline is based in Brighton, UK, you might know her as half of acoustic rock duo Wayward Daughter.
