The Beatles: With The Beatles
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
And so it began the Beatlemania.
A rather excellent album but slightly inferior to the debut.
Their interpretations of Please Mr. Postman, Devil In Her Heart, and You Really Got A Hold On Me are beautiful; All My Loving is a very well-known track; special is It Won't Be Long with its "Yeah Yeah" quite similar to She Loves You.

    In my opinion, on the same level as the first, I would give full marks to both.
The Beatles: help!
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
A mix of pop and acoustic, as demonstrated by tracks like You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, I've Just Seen A Face, and Yesterday; the Leslie is used to modify the guitars in It's Only Love; You're Going To Lose That Girl is also beautiful with its multitude of vocal harmonies.
Perhaps Help! is one of the best albums by the Beatles that I've ever listened to; I also enjoyed the movie, before they flopped with Magical Mystery Tour, in which they were the directors.
The Beatles: Anthology 1
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Really formidable, very very beautiful!
I enjoy listening to those Quarrymen tracks from 1958, and it’s wonderful to hear Paul’s home demos from 1960 as well; but if there’s something marvelous for me in this compilation, that "something" is the Decca Audition. Yes, I particularly like Three Cool Cats and The Sheik Of Araby, both sung by a very young Harrison. If I had to describe the rest, I would say that Anthology 1 mostly contains live recordings from '63 and '64 and many outtakes (of which I was particularly struck by the versions of One After 909 and Eight Days A Week).
The Beatles: Please please me
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
One of the many wonderful albums by the Beatles.
Please Please Me is the most famous debut album in the world (alongside the one by the Doors).
Who doesn't appreciate John's voice and George and Paul's harmonies in Twist And Shout?
Or the counting One, Two, Three...Five in I Saw Her Standing There; or even John's blues harmonica in Love Me Do (their first single); or the melancholic Misery.

    "the most famous debut album in the world (along with the one by the Doors)." Well, I don't know... where do we place, for example, debut albums like 'Viva Viva Claudio Lippi' and 'Calabria' by Otello Profazio?

    But the Beatles are the Beatles, there’s nothing more to say; and any album they made was a success (putting aside Yellow Submarine and Beatles For Sale).

    It makes me smile that you’re making a, how should I put it? ‘Absolutist’ ranking of the most famous debut albums in the world. Citing ONLY TWO. But that's fine, right? There's always time to improve (or it's never too late to learn).

    I’m still 14 years old. I didn’t mean to make a ranking; there are many others like Queen, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, Elvis Presley.

    if it's true that you're 14, then yes, you have time (for example, to abandon Queen...;)))) just kidding, go, the world is yours. Plenty of discoveries ahead)
The Doors: The Soft Parade
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Why is everyone saying it’s the worst album in the entire discography of the Doors? That’s not true at all. I really like it as an album, and some tracks like Shaman's Blues or the title track, which lasts almost 9 minutes, deserve to be reevaluated. It's very jazzy, but I repeat, I was drawn in right from the first notes of trumpet in Tell All The People. Well, to tell you the truth, my favorites from the album are the ones without horns, but I appreciate almost everything by the Doors, except for those two albums after Morrison's death, even though Ray's voice doesn’t seem bad to me at all.

    Well, you see, it's the least successful of the Doors (but it's true that the title track is a great song) but it's not exactly Bad, it's just that the other albums are better (sometimes much better).

    Anyway, I really liked it, but I would never dream of comparing it to other albums like Strange Days or their debut.

    Try listening to the title track live..there's a much better live version on YouTube than the studio one (I think they were guests on some TV show)..anyway, for me this album is well below some of their others..but they were animals live, and the version I just recommended is a great example..
The Doors: Morrison Hotel
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
It's certainly not one of the best by the Doors, that's for sure. I've always preferred the Morrison Hotel side (side B) of this album over the Hard Rock Café side (side A); don't get me wrong, side A features the well-known tracks Roadhouse Blues and Peace Frog, while side B definitely contains their most underrated songs, but not for me, I love the jazz of The Spy and Queen Of The Highway and the sweet psychedelia of Indian Summer.

    Yet it is the one by Doorsche that I enjoy listening to the most, along with the debut.

    @[madcat] I can't disagree with you, I listen to a lot of it, even Waiting For The Sun, which they say is the least successful.
The Who: Tommy
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
The most beautiful and thrilling rock opera of all time.
And besides that, I also say: "Extra, extra! Read all about it! The Pinball Wizard had a miracle cure!"
The tracks are magnificent from the first to the 24th, but the most hypnotic is Underture where guitar and bass alternate, accompanied by Moon's incredible grooves.
