Best Beatles albums

So as you probably know from my other posts I am a massive fan of The Beatles, and therefore I am going to grade The Beatles albums from my least favourite to my favourite. The Beatles released 13 studio albums in the UK over  a 7 year period the first being released in 1963 and the last being released in 1970. So lets begin...

13. Yellow Submarine- 17th January 1969
      Released in early 1969 Yellow submarine was the 11th studio album from the Beatles. This  
      was my least favourite album because of a few childish songs and a side of the album being all
      orchestral, it simply did not appeal to my ears.

12. Magical Mystery Tour- 27th November 1967
      The 8th studio album from the Beatles. Don't get me wrong this album is weird and wonderful  
      with songs like Penny Lane, I Am A Walrus and Strawberry fields. However I personally think  
      there is better and this is evident as this was the only Beatles album to not feature in the top 10 of 
      the UK charts.

11. With The Beatles- 22nd November 1963
      The 2nd studio album from the Beatles was very special to me as it always reminded me of my
      Nan who's favourite Beatles song All My Loving was on this album. There are some truly great
      songs on this album and this lead the album to number 1 in the charts, however it is not a personal
      favourite.

10. Beatles For Sale- 4th December 1964
      The 4th Beatles album simply blew my mind when I first listened to it. My earliest memory of
      any Beatles song was my Dad blasting Mr Moonlight in his car. The vocals of John Lennon in
      this song are simply stunning and that's when I knew the Beatles were special. But it isn't just this
      song that makes this album great, there is also songs like Eight Days A Week, Baby's In Black
      and Rock and Roll Music. The album is simply beautiful!

9. A Hard Days Night- 26th June 1964
    After the first 2 Beatles albums that both reached number 1, many fans were wondering how could
    the Beatles top them. But the Beatles did amaze again with songs like Cant Buy Me Love, A Hard
    Days Night and I Love Her. The album was simply wonderful and this was evident as it reached
    number one in the charts.

8. Help!- 6th August 1965
    The album opens with the song Help which is just amazing as it is loud and energetic and it
    simply gets anyone in the mood to listen to the whole album. The album also included the songs
    Yesterday and Ticket To Ride. The song that I always loved the most on this album was
    You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, the vocals of John Lennon in a Bob Dylan style are just
    mesmerising and because of this Help! is a album that is unforgettable.

7. Please Please Me- 11th February 1963
    As it is the first Beatles album ever it was always going to be special. One song is very special to
    me on the album and that is Anna(Go To Him). This is because my little sister is called Anna and I
    always play it to her, even though she gets embarrassed when I play it. I also love the song Twist
    and Shout which is the last song on the album and it is the perfect way to end, what can only be
    described as a masterpiece.

6. Let It Be- 8th May 1970
    After a period of Psychedelic rock and experimental music The Beatles went back to the basics
    with their final album Let It Be and it was the perfect album to say goodbye after their break up.
    Let It Be was quite an emotional album and the Beatles put a lot of effort into using music to
   describe their feelings with songs like The Long And Winding Road, Two Of Us, For You Blue
   and Dig A Pony. Overall though, the album was musically wonderful.

5. Rubber Soul- 3rd December 1965
    We are getting into the final 5 now and at 5 is Rubber Soul. I remember the first time I listened to
     Rubber Soul and one song really stood out, that song being Norwegian Wood. The song was a
     kind of folk song but with the use of George Harrison on the sitar, it was something that I simply
     had never heard before in music. It was weird and wonderful. But it isn't just this song that makes
     this album there is also In My Life, Michelle, I'm Looking Through You, Baby You Can Drive
     My Car and many more. You get the point, the album is just filled with songs only musical
     geniuses could come up with, and this is why Rubber Soul is at number 5.

4. Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club- 1st June 1967
    Is it Rock? Is it Pop? Is it Psychedelic? Is It Alternative? The great thing about this album is that
    no one truly knows what the genre of the album can be classed as, because every song is
    extremely different from all the others and that is what makes this album just mysterious and
    marvellous.

3. Revolver- 5th August 1966
    In this album the world was introduced to a whole new Beatles, a psychedelic Beatles who loved
    experimenting with different sounds and instruments. When I first listened to the album I was
    stunned that it was the same band who did Pop songs like Cant Buy Me Love< as the Beatles
    became dark and started to create there own little world with characters like Dr. Robert and of
    Course Eleanor Rigby. The song Eleanor Rigby is the song that always amazes me because of
    haunting harmony and lyrics from the McCartney's Vocals. This album just shows that the Beatles
    aren't the cheesy boy band people make out of them to be.

2. Abbey Road- 22nd September 1969
    The whole album is like one song in itself. Everything about this album is just brilliant. To start on
    Come Together and end on Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End was just a touch of
    class. To also have George Harrison doing Something and Ringo Starr doing Octopuses Garden it
    just shows how clever the Beatles really were. I personally love this album because of George
   Harrison's overall involvement as he is very influential throughout the whole album, and it just
  shows that the Beatles may have Lennon and McCartney but without Harrison the Beatles would not
  be the Same.

1. The Beatles("The White Album")- 22nd November 1968
    Finally it comes down to one album, my personal favourite, of course...
    The White Album!
    With 30 songs, yes I repeat 30 songs, the white album reached number one in the UK, Australia,
    Canada, France, Germany, Norway, USA and many other different countries around the world.
    The White Album just had to be my number 1. With songs like While My Guitar Gently Weeps,
    Blackbird, Bungalow Bill, Helter Skelter, Back In The USSR, Dear Prudence, Yer Blues,
   Happiness Is A Warm Gun and many more this album is just hard to put into words. The 4 Beatles
   are all equally important in this album with many different styles and genres of the songs. I simply
   cannot describe how much I love The White Album!
