I binged on early Beatles yesterday, listening to the entire Red Album. I used to prefer the rawness of the production and songwriting of the early Beatles, and the very basic rock and roll of songs like "Love Me Do" and "I Want To Hold Your Hand". I still really love these songs, and I know them all.
Today I'm listening to the Blue album. I have a new appreciation for the complex arrangements and orchestration of later Beatles. I'll always have a soft spot for "Let It Be" and "Hey Jude", songs that I used to listen to with friends when I was in high school (I'm not that old - by the time we were listening to these songs, they were easily 15 years old).
