Sorry to be so cliched, but "you had to be there." I was 13 in 1964 and I can't describe what these short, beautiful songs meant to me. There was such thoughtfulness, optimism and LIFE. Thanks, boys.
Great album. What I mean is, he should have been interviewed too. He's still alive. But when I do program the songs in a different order, I listen to these last: "Hold Me Tight," "Little Child," "Devil In Her Heart," "Till There Was You," "I Wanna Be Your Man." All the other tunes are better, but the whole package is good. He didn't have to participate in the entire anthology, just up to the point when he departed. The lads originally wrote "I Wanna Be Your Man" for the Rolling Stones who recorded and released it first. I usually listen to it straight through. He was there in the beginning.
Long Live Paul McCartney, Richard Starkey, and Pete Best. Speaking of Pete, a thought dawned on me for the first time ever yesterday: Why didn't Paul, George, and Ringo include Pete Best in the Video Anthology. Why not include his thoughts on the experience. I'm saddened by this, but I still love them and the anthology on DVD.
I really enjoy this album. It has some of the Beatles early sound that made them the greatest rock group ever.
Don't ya just luv those Beatles.Now this is a classic second album that took the world by storm.Starts off with It Wont be long,which is a great tune,that and some of my favorites on the album are,All I've Got to Do ,All My Loving,Don't Bother Me,Till There Was You,Please Mr. Postman,Roll over Beethoven.i'm just about naming every song i know,probably the weakest song is Little Child which would have been a hit for any other band,Hold Me Tight is another brilliant one,you just go through these albums and there is so many sensational songs like You've Really Got a Hold on Me or I Wanna Be Your Man or Devil in Her Heart or Not a Second Time,and it ends with Money which is what i want alot of also.
I has this album in the sixties, This CD one had a different mix :(
