JDRM Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 What an incredible song. I just love it.Never really paid much attention to the beatles before. But after hearing a day in the life on radio 2 last week I got sgt peppers and am loving it.Opinions on the album?Top 3 albums for getting into the Beatles?And what is that weird noise at the end of a day in the life!?

UYIllusion Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 It's a great song and one of their best overall.3 albums to start with are Rubber Soul, Revolver, and Abbey Road. The White Album is great but I don't know that it is the best starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthisriver Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Good for you man. "A Day In A Life" is really a kind of a great, great, song. And Sgt. Peppers is a masterpiece. I think that might be one of my favorite songs. I have so many I love, but it's deffinitley close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevdo242 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I'd say Revolver, White Album and Abbey Road. Magical Mystery Tour is good aswell, the followup to Sgt Peppers.The weird noise at the end of A Day In The Life is just John Lennon screwing around with samples I think.

Bucketslash Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 (edited) The ending is actually paul screwing around. the words are "never could see any other way"don't listen to these guys so much, cause most people on the forums will point you to the latter years instead of the early years. Since your assumingly starting with sgt pepper, as sgt. pepper, while great, isn't a rock album by any stretch(with notable exception to, the theme and reprise, and with a little help from my friends, and good morning)go straight to revolver, then rubber soul, then abbey road, then beatles for sale. Then stop to check your bank accountif you enjoyed sgt pepper and abbey road more at this point, go straight to let it be naked and the white albumif you enjoyed that old rock/pop vibe(beatles for sale and abbey road) go straight to please please me and with the beatlesif you enjoyed revolver the most(as this is where the 2 idea were balanced), or enjoyed them all nearly equally then, my friend the entire catalogue is your oyster,(but at all costs stay away from yellow submarine, it's a rip)end with Love, trust me Edited December 22, 2007 by Bucketslash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morten.. Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 A day in the life is an amazing song. I also started with Sgt Pepper, and now i own everything by the Beatles I would buy Revolver, Rubber Soul or Abbey Road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becket Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Day In The Life is my favorite Beatles song. Amazing song, love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drops_of_jupiter Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 And what is that weird noise at the end of a day in the life!? You mean that noise at the very end? That's an ultrasonic dog whistle. I can hear it--many of my friends can't.No smart-arse replies please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Star Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I read this thread today.... Oh boy! I like the album and A Day In The Life! If Sgt. Pepper were real I would have loved to meet him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDRM Posted December 23, 2007 Author Share Posted December 23, 2007 And what is that weird noise at the end of a day in the life!? You mean that noise at the very end? That's an ultrasonic dog whistle. I can hear it--many of my friends can't.No smart-arse replies please Immediately following the dying moments of the crashing piano chord is an extremely high-pitched tone - too high-pitched for some, especially adults to hear but audible to dogs and other animals and most younger listeners. The high tone was inserted, as was John Lennon's intention, to irritate the listener's dog.wow you're right freaky shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanGenie Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 I don't consider Sgt. Peppers to be an easy album to get into the beatles but it doesn't make it any less awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitmanhart408 Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 I know its hard to believe but im just getting into beatles since iv been buying vinyls. first one I got was Abbey Road and its a really great album. Then I got Sgt Pepper and it took a few listens to like it but its good. I guess ill have to take everyones advice and get Revolver next.
