The second edition of Rate the Comp explores The Beatles’ 1973 compilations Red (1962-66) and Blue (1967-70.)
Notes:
- Ringo had a serious thing for the ocean
- It’s okay to have a single over three minutes long nowadays: “Like a Rolling Stone” paved the way for “Hey Jude” which paved the way for “American Pie” which paved the way for “Albuquerque”
- Magical Mystery Tour ≠ Purple Rain
The next episode will either be the Stones’ Hot Rocks/More, Roxy Music’s Street Life, Pure Moods, Goin’ South, or a rapid-fire look rife with hot takes at various badly curated grayscale-art-laden 20th Century Masters. Keep hitting refresh!!!
