Re: Martin was genius. Compare how loud and real

You will get no arguements for me for we are in complete agreement. Rubber Soul marks a major shift in their music and abilities. The group is starting to truely gel at this point. There is an easy, relaxed funk to the entire album. This continues right thru Revolver. Master of their craft indeed. One might argue that Rubber Soul and Revolver are their best efforts. I don't believe they reached the same heights again until Abbey Road.
Abbey Road? Almost too good. The polish, the finesse is amazing. Once again this is all pulled together by the genuis of George Martin.
Not convinced that George Martin is truely the 5th Beatles? Listen to 'Eleanor Rigby.' This is not someone simply kicking off a few lines of back-up notes. The string arrangement is wonderous. It can stand alone nicely without Paul's haunting vocals. Great song for sure, thank you Paul, but George Martin elevated it to a height that I doubt Paul would have considered all alone. Many such examples exist.
