I never thought ''Magical Mystery Tour'' was an underrated album...ever.

and ''All Things Must Pass'' too.

Aren't both these albums still considered classics, nowadays?

Or am I getting old?
:heheh:

Hmmmmm. While "Magical Mystery Tour" deserves more accolades when compared with Beatles albums such as the "White Album", "Abbey Road" and "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", it's far from the Beatles most underrated album. Try "Beatles '65", "Beatlemania" or "Twist and Shout" for that title.

What I also can't understand is why you limited your selections to five when you could have had as many as twenty. There are hundreds of underrated albums out there.

:wtf:

I'll go for "Village Green Preservation Society" from this list though.

:pirate:

I don't think All Things Must Pass has ever been considered underrated, has it? In fact, if memory serves me correctly, of the first four solo albums by the Beatles, it was the most critically acclaimed and widely revered, wasn't it?

(I could be wrong though)

MMT is usually near the bottom of most people's beatles album lists

as for all things must pass, it was well received, but not as much as band on the run or imagine, and I believe it is better than both of those.

Wasn't John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band actually the first 'solo' release by Lennon?

And Band on the Run was actually like 5 or 6 albums into McCartney's solo career. (unless you weren't talking about my comment about each of their first solo albums respectively, then nevermind this comment). :tongue:

Theres no albums by the beatles called Beatlemania or Twist and Shout.

And you call yourself a Beatles' fan? You're a disgrace, son, an absolute disgrace to the hallowed fraternity of wide-eyed fanatical Beatle worshippers.

Here, let an old fox give you a much needed lesson:

Lets see, that album "Twist and Shout" is a little something we like to call a SINGLE not an ALBUM.

And the official title release of "Beatlemania!" was "With The Beatles"

thats what we here in america know it as


And im the one who needs a lesson? :p
