I don't think many Beatles fanatics are too keen on Love but i think it's brilliant, all the tracks flow brilliantly into each other and often feel like a breath of fresh air. There's some great mixes too, in particular for me it's For The Benefit of Mr Kite/She's So Heavy, brilliantly trippy.
I'd go as far as to say it's the best starting point for someone looking to get into the Beatles.

Love is an excellent Beatles compilation... It's completely seamless, I would have loved to see the actual show.

I would've loved to see the show on shrooms.

I agree that it's awesome, but I wouldn't introduce someone to the Beatles with that album. I'd give them an original album first, like Revolver or something.

It's not like people need "introduction" to The Beatles. Nearly everyone in the western world has heard at least Yesterday, All You Need is Love and Hey Jude and has some sort of opinion about them. If they want to expand their field, sure, Revolver will be a fine starting point, but the introduction was taken care of involuntary by the time they could comprehend music more or less.

Eh, I disagree. If I'd heard Happiness is a Warm Gun or Helter Skelter I wouldn't have put off listening to the Beatles until High School.

i think Rubber Soul. Its the Beatles doing folk and its meloncholic tone just makes it such a great listen. I also think its the album that marked the transition from the manufactured pop of their earlier albums into the mature, innovative experimentation of their larer work, you can see they had more creative freedom than ever before with this album
