Vinylrecordsandhomeaudio.com essential recording
The Beatles' last days as a band were as productive as any major pop phenomenon that was about to split. After recording the ragged-but-right Let It Be, the group held on for this ambitious effort, an album that was to become their best-selling. Though all four contribute to the first side's writing, John Lennon's hard-rocking, "Come Together" and "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" make the strongest impression. A series of song fragments edited together in suite form dominates side two; its portentous, touching, official close ("Golden Slumbers"/"Carry That Weight"/"The End") is nicely undercut, in typical Beatles fashion, by Paul McCartney's cheeky "Her Majesty," which follows. --Rickey Wright
 
Customer Reviews for  'Abbey Road [Vinyl]'
 
The remastered mix sux. UGH!
I was musically aware when the beatles emerged, and I became musically knowledgable during their long musical dominance.
I KNOW how Abbey Road is supposed to sound and I can't believe everyone is giving this crap a pass. The remastering favors the bass to the detriment of the entire experience. The original sound had a wonderful balance of bass, voice, rhythm.
This mix sux
I bought this to replace my lost CD, and decided to pay extra bucks and go for what these clowns consider an excellent mix.
I'm going back and buying the older version.
How long are these remasters going to continue being horrifically botched versions of imbalance.

I'm giving 2 stars because after all, this IS the Beatles.

Don't record producers know that George Martin LIVES and might still be available for consultation???
 
The Beatles Abbey Road
The Beatles Abbey Road (1990) cd was attained through the Pepsi bottle rewards program. If you are a child of the 60s and 70s you grew up with the Beatles and although not all people are in love with them their merchandise certainly is rewarding and their music style was diversified over time. I love the Beatles and the definitely hold a tremendous marker in music history.
 
A classic album or an overdose of nostalgia?
When the Beatles were creating this album, they all knew very well that it would probably be their last. This both adds and detracts: it adds well-polished playing and production, yet detracts from the longetivity and out-of-context likability.

A good album should be able to stand on it's own two feet with little to no explanation. Can Abbey Road truly pass this test, and be good on its own merits, and not the merits of the band? Song-by-song, the truth will be revealed.

The first track is "Come Together." It has strange lyrics, and is very enjoyable.

"Something" is a truly great song, very well done.

"Maxwell's Silver Hammer" ... Yikes. While this song may cause some uncomfortable giggling on first listen, it has no longetivity or artistic merit whatsoever.

"Oh! Darling" is not a very creative song. It's just a reboot of a traditional 50s rock 'n roll. That being said, it is a great vocal by McCartney, just not a great song in and of itself.

"Octopus's Garden" is not a great track whatsoever. Sung by anyone except Ringo, it would be perceived as awful. Ringo has enough charm to keep the song somewhat afloat, but it's not a classic or fantastic by any means.

"I Want You (She's So Heavy)" is spotty... it has great moments, and then some really boring ones (like the pretentious, overly long ending).

"Here Comes the Sun" is, along with "Something" the best two individual tracks on Abbey Road. Once again, well done, Mr. Harrison.

"Because" is an amazing number... not a whole lot can be said beyond that.

"You Never Give Me Your Money" features some great guitar riffs by Harrison. Lyrically, it's a bit of a drag to listen to. Some of the financial troubles of the Beatles seep through here. Overall, it's a very good song though.

"Sun King" is a decent song, but a bit awkward in it's track placement. The vocals are nothing to write home about, but the pleasant guitar and bass make it listenable.

"Mean Mr. Mustard" and "Polythene Pam" are not great by any means.

"She Came in Through the Bathroom Window" is harmless, but not incredibly impressive.

"Golden Slumbers" features a fantastic vocal from McCartney, a shame the song isn't longer though.

"Carry That Weight" has a very nostalgic feel to it. It sounds like something is coming to an end here (and not just the album).

"The End" has some great guitar solos, but the final lyrical line feels a bit too contrived.

"Her Majesty" is McCartney in a nutshell; cheeky and fond of all things novel.


For every moment on this album that feels good, there is a moment that is contrived or forced. The album is average. It's neither the Beatles worst or greatest. It's very middle of the road. It seemed like the Beatles were running out of ideas by the time they got to this album so perhaps, it was for the best that the Fab Four moved on with their lives after this one.
 
SATISFIED
I am a big Beatles fan and LOVED this CD. Paul McCartney's version of Oh! Darling! is terrific!
 
A Pure Classic!
Wow....finally the whole Beatles catalog has been reissued and remastered. I have to say the sound is great! This one is probably my favorite of the Beatles catalog.
