Review of Beatles For Sale - Beatles (The)

...inside left photograph shows the Beatles during one of their performances at some TV show, with the list of songs above this picture. Inside right there's a photo-montage with a lot of photos (maybe the inspiration behind the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band cover). There are also sleeves notes written by Dereck Taylor(Beatles press officer). Anyway, this album took 2 months and a half to record, and it was finally released on 4 decenber 1964, ...
...tracks were compiled by the Beatles (probably because of this constant touring). But, as always, there's a big improvement in this songs composed by them, and in this album, there's a big presence of McCartney, who composed 3 songs for this album by his own (same number than Lennon) and another one composed by both Lennon and McCartney. And now, the songs: 1. No reply: Main composer: Lennon, singer: Lennon. A slow nice song, meant to be a single, ...

Review of Beatles For Sale - Beatles (The)

Beatles For Sale, while not a particularly critically acclaimed album, is very important nonetheless. Six of the fourteen songs on the album are covers--the Beatles admired the work of the artists that made it possible for there to be Beatles, and by covering their work, that importance was acknowledged. This album completes the evolution of the songwriting team of Lennon and McCartney--they came of age as tunesmiths, and never found it necessary ...
...Beatles For Sale were written by the Beatles. The songs, and a brief synopsis of each, follows: 1. No Reply--This tune begins with a vocal introduction by John Lennon, and he has been jilted by his lover. The bridge lectures her, saying she should realize that he "love(s) (her) more than any other guy". Jealousy rears its ugly head, a common theme in Lennon's songs. Although this tune features acoustic guitars, they drive it pretty good. 2. I'm ...

Review of Beatles For Sale - Beatles (The)

...during this and 1964 The Beatles were exhausted and it showed. Not where the album was concerned though: they managed to produce another album of a high quality. This was the first album to feature songs with more of a country feel, which was Ringo’s influence on the band. A more prominent influence throughout the rest of the albums was that of Bob Dylan. His introduction of dope to the Beatles apparently let them write more freely, and it is this ...
...album years later. If Beatles fans were asked to pick the weakest song recorded, then this may well be it: McCartney and Harrison ambled along to Lennon’s impassioned lead on this and it was not up-to the standard of their earlier renditions of this song live. One of the most memorable songs on the album was “Eight Days a Week” which was another first in the music industry, because just after The Beatles discovered the art of fading music out, they ...
