Reviews for Abbey Road

The Beatles were no longer one cohesive unit, there were petty differences and these just seemed to escalate as the end of the Beatles was known to all; yet somehow the band were clearly in their musical prime, writing songs and music that would help define the band as well as their respective careers.  The Beatles had set the bar very high and delivered this legendary music despite the strained conditions.  The result is the album Abbey Road, which is filled with inventive melodies, innovation, strong compositions and a more rock-oriented ensemble of songs which just reinforced their status as the world’s best rock and roll band.  

Abbey Road has since become one of the most successful Beatles’ albums of all time, being certified by the RIAA as 12x platinum.  In the UK, the album debuted at #1, staying in that position for eleven straight weeks before being knocked down to #2 by the Rolling Stones Let It Bleed album for a week before reclaiming the top spot for another six week run at the top.  In the UK, Abbey Road was the best selling album of 1969 and the forth best seller for the decade.  Amazingly, the album continues to sell, a testament to the music and the emotional connection that the Beatles had with their audiences.

With cuts like Lennon's Timothy Leary-inspired "Come Together," the whimsical, vaudevillian-styled  McCartney tune "Maxwell's Silver Hammer," George Harrison's stunning ballad "Something" and the acoustic precision of "Here Comes The Sun” to  Ringo Starr's cheery yet infectious “Octopus's Garden,” all four of the Beatles went out in style with this compelling and revered album.

The climax of the album is the sixteen-minute medley consisting of several short songs "Sun King," "Mean Mr. Mustard," "Polythene Pam,"  "She Came in Through the Bathroom Window," "Golden Slumbers," "Carry That Weight," (featuring chorus vocals from all four Beatles), and the climax, "The End.” “The End" is notable for featuring Starr's only drum solo in the whole Beatles catalogue and for the line “and in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make;" which is a perfect climax to this endearing seminal album.
