Eric Clapton did a great job playing lead on this track, although most Beatle fans would probably prefer to hear George playing.

Often praised but frankly I think it's bit dull.

Rain
The guitars, drumming, the whole feel of the song. Easily one of the best overlooked songs.

In My Life
The sweetest guitar intro ever written. Lennon's lyrics were some of the best he ever penned and his vocal from the world-weary beginning to the pleading-falsetto ending were never better than this.

It is a trademark of the Beatles that they put out such a great song as a b-side.

A Day In the Life
Perfect example of the Beatles' influence. No one had even thought of taking three unfinished songs and putting them together. Nicely over-produced.

I've Just Seen a Face
The closest the Beatles came to recording a country/rockabilly song other than "Act Naturally." Simple yet perfectly conceived.

Abby Road Suite
The closing of Abby Road from "Polythene Pam" to "The End" is pure genius. If it wasn't stretching the boundaries a what is a song, I'd put it at number one.

The historic and definitive version of this song and proof of just how hard this band worked. Lennon at his rocking best.

Breakthrough early rocker that shows just how fresh the Beatles sound was in1963.

Ticket to Ride
The best of early Beatles songs. Ringo's drum line, the inspired vocal. Watching this performed at Shea Stadium leaves no doubt to the heights this group would ascend.

George's first great song. Harmonies must have inspired Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. One of the best songs on Rubber Soul.

The Beatles made something like 75 takes of this McCartney song. Lennon hated it by the end of the sessions.
