Jordan sez: "Still, it's hard to get by without hearing any Beatles songs, so I am pretty well versed in the Beatles, I think..."
In 1988, when the original Beatles CD came out, I was 25 and working at a record store. I always considered myself a Beatles fan & had been surrounded by their music growing up w/ 4 older siblings. I was blown away by how many of the songs I didn't know...and how great everything was in the context of the albums and the progression from album to album. Hearing everything again in more-or-less the order and albums they were intended for really re-opened my eyes to the magnitude of how great they were.
Jordan, if you like the stuff you know, you really owe it to yourself to take the full dive in - I think you may end up as surprised as I was.
