REVOLVER

It is hardly seen any review on this album without any reference to its immediate successor "Sgt. Pepper's". Nevertheless, it is much more than a mere appetizer for The Beatles' so-called "masterpiece". In fact, this should be regarded as a masterpiece of its own, a brilliant collection of songs pointing out to the future. And it still points out, just as in 1966! Moreover, "Revolver" should not be thought of only as the turning point that it really represents in The Beatles' discography, but should also be considered in terms of what it means to rock'n'roll history. It contains sounds that had never been heard hitherto, that can only compare to The Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds" (though with much more urgency). "Revolver" was the first sign that, from then on, rock would not be a "youth fever". It would be "young people's art". What word other than "art" could be used to describe such beautiful songs as "She Said She Said" , "Tomorrow Never Knows" or "Here There And Everywhere"? So, whenever listening to this album, make sure you will pay attention to the fact that you are listening to a legitimate rock classic.
