4 stars Beatles on PA, kind of a stretch. It's like saying any band that did anything new at all should be on here, and that's not the case. I suppose some of their music has some sounds that were influential on The Moody Blues and Procul Harum and even King Crimson, thereby influencing prog, but I dunno, somehow I think John Lennon would be like "haha, WTF" if he knew he was on a prog website, but whatever. The Beatles did influence Transatlantic, and any band that did that is fine by me. This might be my favorite Beatles album, either this or Sgt. Pepper's. So many great songs on here almost every song; Taxman, I'm Only Sleeping, Love You To, She Said She Said, I Want to Tell You, and Tomorrow Never Knows are my personal favorites. For a long time my favorite Beatles song was A Day in the Life, but I Want to Tell You is currently it; I can just feel this song more than any other song by the band; "I get hung up and I don't know why, I don't mind, I could wait forever, I've got time". It's just one of the greatest lines in music, I think, and this album is full of them; one of the essental albums of rock.
