I thought I’d try a new format on my blog – looking through every entry of a certain topic, deciding whether it’s overrated or underrated (or properly rated) by the general public and the fandom. Who better to start with than the mighty Beatles – I’ve listened to their entire discography countless times, so I’mContinue reading “Beatles Albums – Overrated / Underrated”

This basically just means I’ll choose the Beatle that I think wrote the best songs for that album – so you’re not going to seeContinue reading “Every Beatles Album – Which Beatle was MVP?”

Beatles Opening Songs Ranked
