Amid all of the stories of the group breaking up, with personal relationships completely breaking down, somehow The Beatles managed to conjure up one more great album before they called it a day (Let it Be falls slightly short of great)

This is the most complete set of songs since Revolver, stripping the songs back down to their basic structure (Come Together) without all the technical trimmings of Sgt Pepper and the White Album. Harrison really comes into his own here with two of the standout tracks (Something, Here Comes the Sun) showing just what a valuable cog in the Beatles machine he really was. THe first half of the album is potential single after another, before it splits into an extended medley over the course of its second half. The album reaches its highlight with the perfect 'Golden Slumbers'(The best 90 seconds in Pop history?) and the way it leads into the boisterous Carry That Weight.

This was as good as it got for the Beatles, and for everybody else - One of the greatest albums of all time
