Album Review 5/104 : The Beatles : With The Beatles

The Beatles listening continues with their second album, recorded in the latter half of 1963. This album was recorded and released after their extremely successful first album. It's about 50/50 between original songs and covers of other songs which seems like it was a bigger thing back in the early 60s.

As far as their sound goes it still has that late 50s early 60s sound I don't love. We're still early on in their existence and I know that a lot of their later music gets crazy (and pretty good). So I'm looking forward to it.

Really I'm just hoping that I can hear the transition from this style into their later music. Interesting to hear how artists evolve over their careers.
