I know and like their songs obviously but never really listened to their catalogue so today I'm marathoning it all.
And up to Rubber Soul it was a slog. With the exception of few well-written songs it's really boring, safe and generally uninteresting. Now Rubber Soul seems to mark a major change in the band's philosophy, songwriting is inspired from beginning to end and the production is pretty good.
I thought about quitting after Help but now I want more.

You're about to experience the absolute peak of the Beatles musically speaking: 1966-1969 studio albums. Feel free to skip 'Yellow Submarine', though.
Help has elements of that too, I think, but yeah as soon as you hear Drive My Car and Norwegian Wood there's no going back
The main reason for their transition from boring to not, is pic related. You have to check him out, Lennon worshipped him.
Fuck outta here that song was recorded after Sgt. Pepper
He has earlier songs that preclude the Beatles in style, I just picked one of the most Lennon like songs of his. They influenced each other bigtime.
>When Nilsson became famous, Turner decided to release these early recordings, and contacted Nilsson to work out a fair payment. Nilsson replied that he had already been paid – five dollars a track.
Good guy Harry
It's cool that he and Lennon/Mccartney were mutual fans
Everything before Rubber Soul - with the exception of a few songs - is not worth listening to, and for the most part is complete shit. You're a retard for not doing your homework and realizing that before going into it. That said, you should enjoy the latter half of their catalog considerably.
This is my face on Revolver.
