All my picks won in that round except for the important one. As thelawnwrangler would say, 'Oh My Love over Action? What is wrong with you people?' This tournament is now irrelevant (although I will still be voting).

I agree...I don't know if I care anymore now that Action's gone. And someone had the gall to tell me last weekend that it was their LEAST favorite Features song!

My favorite part is watching Roger looking as if he is screaming 'Action, Action' at the top of his lungs, but in usual Dabbs fashion, you can't actually hear any of it.

You ustacud hear him quite clearly, but in the last couple of years his presence as a back-up singer has dwindled. I thought he added a lot to 'Circus' and 'Thursday'

it's a little known fact that facial hair hinders vocal performance.

That can be contended when one considers the Beatles Abbey Road and Let It Be eras.

'let it be' sucks. 'abbey road' kicks butt. i actually like half the songs on 'let it be'. across the universe would be great if it didn't have a 12 string and it were recorded better. the long and winding road is my least favorite beatles track(why don't we do it in the road is a close second). i me mine rules. i put 'please please me' right down there with 'let it be'. oddly enough, i've found myself gravitating towards 'magical mystery tour'.

Hey, I never thought Jeff Lynn had a beard singing problem. Interestingly, I have noted that he has worn a beard as an attitude not a fashon statment

'Abbey Road' is my second favorite Beatles album, behind the White Album.  In fact, what the hell, I'll just go ahead and rank Beatles albums.

1.   White Album
2.   Abbey Road
3.   Revolver
4.   Magical Mystery Tour
5.   Sgt. Pepper's
6.   Rubber Soul
7.   Yellow Submarine
8.   Let It Be
9.   Beatles For Sale
10. Help
11. Hard Day's Night
12. With the Beatles
13. Please Please Me

These are just opinions, folks, don't freak out.

1. sgt. peppers
2. white album
3. mystery tour
4. revolver
5. abbey road
6. rubber soul
7. beatles for sale
8. yellow submarine
9. a hard day's night
10. help
11. with the beatles
12. please please me
13. let it be

sgt. pepper's along with the police's zenyatta mondatta are the first albums i can recall listening to as a wee tyke. the white album would get #1, but it's not easy to listen to all the way through. this list would change every other week. let it be and please please me would stay firmly attached to the bottom, perhaps trading places every now and then.

I'd do like every one else--later stuff at the top and the first few albums at the bottom. My difference is that there's almost a week-to-week change in my favorite between White, Abbey, and Let It Be. I know it doesn't have the push of the others, but I very much enjoy it for what it is. It's on my 'Top 5 Albums to Listen to While Driving Home.' The movie is great too.
