They claim it was the first concept album.


What was the concept?
"We haven't made quite enough money to break up yet"?



Funny thing about the Beatles ... I never really liked their later
music, especially when they started doing the "psychedelic" stuff.
I appreciate the complexity of the compositions but the subject matter
never got me excited.

I still like the early, original Beatles tunes. "I Want to Hold Your
Hand", "She Loves You", etc. Simple songs but, for their time, were
a major departure from the music of their day.
