Abbey Road Side One

This is one of those totally subjective subjects, of course. But IMO once you get past the first two songs, it's pretty bad. It's Macca at his most annoying (he must have driven the other three right up the wall sometimes) and then some Ringo with help from George crap and then John mailing it in at the end.

Side Two is a masterpiece for all of them, but I wonder how many people gave up on the LP after Side One and didn't bother to flip it over the first time they listened.

Only Side 1 song that's 'eh' to me is "Oh! Darling". Ditto for the '78 Robin Gibb remake. I love "I Want You (She's So Heavy). So yes, totally subjective.
