I love The Beatles. I drift in and out over the years and dip in and out of different albums but currently back in the mood for the Abbey Road album. I love the medley. George Martin did a great job of rallying the matured Beatles into singing their trademark harmonies, which are stunning, and pulling together a proper Beatles album. The guitars are great too.
I wonder if we'll get a Giles Martin remix in a year or 2 after The White Album remix is delivered on 9th Nov?

Agree that the guitar work and arrangements are fantastic.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
Abbey Road may well be their most ‘complete’ album - but listening back to the rest over the last few days, has convinced me of their genius all over again.
I thought Let It Be was the album they least enjoyed making though - so bad they almost broke up then, but McCartney suggested they come back for one final time and record more like they had in the old days.
The medley is fantastic - even though Lennon thought it was just stringing together a few left-over scraps of songs, it works as a whole and seems like a fitting way to end. McCartney’s vocal on Golden Slumbers might actually be my favourite moment in their entire catalogue.

Apart from that the whole album is.
