I respect you for choosing the /5 rating system
Tbf since they're doing 0.5s it's still basically an out of 10 rating
Trash
Nah there's gems
sure but only 1-2 per album post-wings and there are like 50 of them

the real reward is finding a good song on one of ringo's solo albums

Hmmm but are they? People like to do the same thing with /10
the Beatles are lowkey one of the worst bands to listen to chronologically imo. arguably Help is their first essential listen and their music really takes off from Rubber Soul onwards. its definitely not a bad idea to jump in with a later album
Help! has the better movie songs collectively but A Hard Days Night is superior overall. Help! has a lot of skips during the second half of the album that A Hard Days Night doesn’t have.

Going through the whole Paul disco to find all the gems

I stan Ringo's Beatle stuff but that the only good aolo song of his I've heard
Going through the whole Paul disco to find all the gems
Looking forward to finding more as I go through my year by year deep dive. Wasn't expecting such a banger on Venus & Mars for '75.

1. Music back then in general was usually around the 2 to 2 and a half minute mark in length. Which is ironic, because I feel like we’ve been going back towards that with how fried attention spans are thanks to social media.
2. Stereo was new at the time, and the standard way to consume music was through mono (1 speaker with everything coming out of it). Because the recordings were made using limited-track tape, entire groups of instruments or vocals were often locked together and placed entirely on one side. So half of the audio tracks would be completely panned to the right (like…vocals and bass for example) and the other half would be panned to the left (guitar and drums).
It’s really a struggle to listen to those songs with the hard panning today. The best way to consume The Beatles music as intended is to listen to the original mono mixes, and then the contemporary remixes in stereo they’ve done over the last decade or so which mostly fixes the panning issue.
