It's a crying shame that their music isn't available on any streaming services. I hope whoever is pulling that string knows that a whole generation of people are going to grow up not knowing this brilliant music. I guess the records are still making money, or why else wouldn't they be on there, but come the fuck on. It is more important that people get to hear this stuff than not.

That said, I could go on all day about The Beatles, but I'll just leave you with a few tracks since you've apparently got some digital music from flag.

My favorite collection of Beatles songs (although not my favorite album) is the White Album. Check out "Helter Skelter", and "Happiness is a Warm Gun'," although really just listen to the whole thing.

My favorite album is Revolver, and my favorite section of revolver is For No One --> Dr. Robert. They're not a segue or anything, but for me, they just kind of fit together, and I can't listen to one without the other. Highly recommend just listening to Revolver all the way through, however. That album, as well as Abbey Road (especially Abbey Road), can really only be understood as a complete album, and the whole is bigger than the sum of its parts.

Side two of Abbey Road is mostly a medley. I never realized that with mp3s. Certain albums are meant to be on vinyl
