HELP!
Help!
Help! was, of course, the movie score and a bit more. It's the last entirely straightforward album they ever made. There are minutes of brilliance, like the radiant "Ticket To Ride", but also hints of writing on autopilot, such as the standard fabbery of "I've Just Seen A Face" and "The Night Before". The title track has John Lennon edging up to the soul baring angst he'd later revel in. "Yesterday" displays Paul McCartney perfecting his own trademark of wide eyed wistfulness. The set would be transcendent by anyone else's standards, but in strictly the Beatles terms the LP is just a holding operation.
