Default What album should I get next?

Hello, all. I have always been a Beatles fan and owned several of their albums, but now I am trying to collect them all. So far I have 8 of the 13 releases, plus the two Past Masters volumes, leaving 5 more I want to get. The question is, which one should I get next?

I need:
Please Please Me
With the Beatles
Yellow Submarine
A Hard Day's Night
Let it Be

First of all, I just wanted to say hi and welcome to the Links!
Hmm, good question... I would say With the Beatles or A Hard Day's NIght to go with next. With the Beatles sometimes gets a bad rap as being a weak album, but personally I really enjoy it, with great tunes like "Roll Over Beethoven", "You Really Got a Hold on Me" and "Not a Second Time". AHDN is an excellent one, too, I love all the tracks on it, have you seen the movie yet?

Yeah, I agree, I think A Hard Day's Night from your list there. But you might want to also consider one or two (or all three!) of the Anthologies.

With the Beatles is one of my faves!!! I'd say that one or AHDN.
With the Beatles is one of my faves, not just because it's a cracking album which requires you to stop everything else to listen to it 'cos you just have to dance!!!!!!!! But also 'cos of it's connections with Bournemouth which is where I live!!!!!!!

If one the Beatles' fan to be wants should one all albums have/buy.


That does not have with to collect anything to do...


Collect are called other Edition/Version from other countries.


Vinyl Collector collect all records around the World and Year...

Out of that list, I'd say go for 'Hard Days Night' next, but it'd be better to get the slightly weaker albums out of the way first so that there's no disappointment when you buy the next album.

In which case, I'd suggest getting 'Yellow Submarine'.

I think Let It Be is the best of the lot but you probably know most of the songs on it already anyways. If you are feeling adventerous and want to pick an album where you probably have not heard most of the songs then go for Beatles For Sale.

I agree that Let It Be is probably the best but they all have good points. Yellow Submarine may not look as appealling but Hey Bulldog and It's All Too Much are almost worth the price alone.

They´re all great albums, but, like many others here, I´d go for A Hard Day´s Night.

With The Beatles, just because of that raw energy. Get 'em all anyway, but that one first.

My faves out of that list are AHDN and LIB, so I'd say save them till last 'cause you know they'll be good. Maybe start at the beginning with Please Please Me and work your way through?
