The Beatles: Revolver covered

The-Beatles-Revolver

 

One of the greatest albums ever…

The Beatles had initiated a second pop revolution – one which while galvanising their existing rivals and inspiring many new ones, left all of them far behind.
~Ian MacDonald (Revolution in the Head: The Beatles’ Records and the Sixties)
