5 stars I have not reviewed any album since perhaps more than one year. I have done it with all the albums I wanted, others which I proposed to be included in PA (such as Dezo Ursiny for example) were ignored. But now I see Abbey road here, great news, so I must do a review again. This is the very very very top album of rock music. From the beginning till the end, it flows like a river of wise, funny, inteligent, brilliant music. Each song is unique. This album is with no hesitation the progressive pearl of pearls. I like Yes, Rush, Genesis, VDGG, but to be honest, Abbey road is No.1. The side one is a collection of great songs, every one unforgetable, all members contributed with their best. The side two is a fluent suite of magic music. The songs involved here are not enormously known hits, but they display clearly a musicality which can be compared to the peaks of the classical music. You will not find here decadence, vulgarity, superficiality, servility, all the marks of post-modern nowadays like-to-be-art efforts. Abbey road is a proof that rock music can be a real art. Fortunately, a lot of real art works followed after that album, either inspired by beatles or not. nevertheless, with this album Beatles grown to the all-time-classics. The love you take is equal to the love you make.
