Description

So this is it, we’ve hit 100 album reviews (or whatever it is we do on our little show). We decided that the only way properly celebrate was to talk about an album by the most influential rock band in rock and roll history - the Beatles - and their fifth studio album: 1965’s Help! .Released at the height of Beatlemania, Help! is the last album of what is typically considered “Early period” Beatles. Tied to the movie of the same name, Help! is too often dismissed as just a soundtrack album and as a result, often gets overlooked. But  it is worthy of further discussion.  Help! is a transitional album that moves the band away I their 60s pop oriented tunes towards a more mature sound influenced by Bob Dylan and utilizing the studio in in a way not done previously by a rock band. And it contains “Yesterday,” a song that holds the world record for the number of covers recorded at 2200 and counting. Help! is a true underrated Beatles' gem worthy of additional attention and listens.
