I may lose some objectivty by writing this review, so I’m going to admit now that there may be lots of people who have strong arguments to consider “Sgt.Pepper’s”, “Abbey Road”, the White Album or even “Rubber Soul” superior albums made by the Beatles. But to me, “Revolver” represents the album that changed my life completely. I had heard the *traditional* Beatles music from the “Red” & “Blue” vinyls that my dad had here at home, and received the “Free As A Bird” and “Real Love” songs with surprise and curiosity, as they were nice and strongly constructed. Then I thought there might be a whole lot of Beatle music I may have been missing, and God knows why I got obssesed with “Revolver”, and finally got it by Christmas when I was sixteen (that was only two years ago!).And I wasn’t wrong at all. I didn’t find here the traditional Beatles singalong tunes that everybody knows (OK, maybe “Yellow Submarine”, but that’s all!), but an unusual experiment of brilliant music, frequently accompanied by excellent lyrics coming from the three most important composers in the history of pop music… The excellent guitar work on the whole album was something I had never heard before, neither in the music of this generation, nor in any music I’ve heard… So it immediatly blew my mind. When I first heard “She Said She Said”, I thought “that’s the Beatles?”… And what about “Tomorrow Never Knows”! That sounds like the weirdest (but at the same time coherent) sound experiment ever made, with surprising results in the vocals and the tape loops that make that song a very rare and acid trip to… nowhere.That’s my global impression of the album: it’s a trip (with even more taste than the “Magical Mystery Tour”), a conceptual experience (with even more cohesion than the nearly-perfect “Sgt.Pepper”), a production experiment (as it was the root for everything else done since in the pop music) and a call to change your life: you can “turn off your mind, relax and float downstream”, and try to face another reality. with your own mind (“it’s all in your mind, you know!”). So you may get out of the world for some time, and ask not to be awake, like John did in his brilliant “I’m Only Sleeping”; go to a walk and find other “kinds of mind” there, by looking at them without the horrible pressure of time, like Paul sang on “Got To Get You Into My Life”; or even transform your worst nightmares (like knowing what it’s like to be dead on “She Said She Said” or surrendering to the void on “Tomorrow Never Knows”) or your strangest dreams (living a life in a “Yellow Submarine”) into something you could share with the world.The Beatles reached here near to perfection. John’s reflexive lyrics on “I’m Only Sleeping” are perfectly accompanied by George’s excellent backwards guitar solo; he amazed us with the incredible musical and lyrical construction of “Tomorrow Never Knows” and the greatest guitar work ever made by The Beatles, evidenced on songs that are underrated by many, like “She Said She Said”, “And Your Bird Can Sing” (now hear THAT solo!) and “Doctor Robert”. His vocals and backing vocals are also stunning. Paul also got involved into this other world the Beatles were discovering on “Got To Get You Into My Life”, but he didn’t lose the opportunity of reaching his peak as a pop composer, writing his most beautiful ballad EVER (“Here, There And Everywhere”), a very special, quite sad but lovely social comment, with delightful orchestral arrangements courtesy of sir George Martin (“Eleanor Rigby”), a lovely ode to the love that’s not with him anymore (“For No One”, hear the lovely horn solo!) and an up-beat and optimistic song about the happiness of being in love (“Good Day Sunshine”). Ringo gets deep into your subconscious with his spectacular lead vocal on “Yellow Submarine” (probably the most-known track of this album), but he also shines as a drummer, showing us what he’s capable of on “She Said She Said” (congratulations, one of his best!) and “Tomorrow Never Knows”.George Harrison gets an apart mention. His contributions to The Beatles records were always underrated, but in this album he comes to the peak of three songs, and the three of them are masterpieces, helping us to value him more as a writer, singer and composer than ever, as his vocals and backing vocals (hear “Good Day Sunshine” or “She Said She Said”) are nearly perfect. And what about his own compositions! “Taxman” (the best song of the album, in my opinion) combines that ironic sense of humor George had with a rock’n'roll-guitar-and-drums structure that you can’t get out of your head. Paul’s stunning “indian” guitar solo and the tambourine and cowbell percussion only help this song to grow bigger and bigger… “Love You To”, the first absolutely INDIAN Beatle song ever, was an audacious experiment that turned out pretty well thanks to the excellent guitar and percussion work overdubbed later by George, the intriguing lyrics and the serious double-tracked lead vocal; and “I Want To Tell You” is a nice piece of work, with a crackling and out-of-tune piano (Paul?) and the simplest lyrics, just to say “I’ll make you maybe next time around”…Other short mention: “Paperback Writer” and “Rain” (my favourite song in the entire Beatles’ catalogue) were realased weeks after “Revolver” as a single, but were recorded in the same sessions. They absolutely follow the spirit of the album, as they bring beautiful and spectacular guitar work, lots of drug inspiration and “other kinds of mind”… You can find them at “Past Masters Vol.2″ So buy this album and enjoy it. Turn off your mind, relax and… simply enjoy it. It surely will change a part of your life.
