This album is a masterpiece. Certainly in my top five. Sad to say I haven't really thought about it or listened to it in years, but looking at the track list again gives me chills. I remember being around 12 years old and playing individual songs over and over again, driving my Dad crazy.

If I had to pick a single favorite, it'd be "A Day in the Life". I love the juxtaposition of the different Lennon/McCartney segments; like a collage of two entirely different brilliant paintings that should be a train wreck, but somehow they just mesh perfectly. Like PB&J I suppose.

I'm listening to it now...ahhhh. It's easy to forget how everything we hear today would be so radically different if the Beatles never existed.

Thanks prisoner.
