The Beatles between end of 1965 - till the end of 1968 has definitly been heir most exciting and creatively years to my ears.🔥 (Love this band,always have!) ❤

In order to maintain their success level they really had to get more experimental and psychedelic. I mean the times were changing so they couldn't just keep on with Chuck Berry style rock and roll which is really what John loved to do. Whatever it was even if drugs were involved it kept their music evolving and kept them leaders in the industry and so influential on culture at the time.

I’ve already known about some of what the Beatles did,again,through the book’s.And,yes….I had known about Hiatt Ashbury in California.But,I’m much too young to remember all this,because,I was a child 🧒 back in those day’s.I like their flowery shirt’s 👚that the Beatles wore,too!We had those “flowery dresses’,back in my day.I’m glad that my skirt’s weren’t short,anymore!In High School,I wore a long,medieval dress 👗 which I just loved!I think,this either,was;given away,or given to my mom’s dance 💃 company?I’m not sure which?😊

And,I knew that John Lennon fell in love 😻 with Yoko Ono,and eventually,married her in 1969 in Gilbraltor,Spain.As my dad called it;the rock.🪨 Which meant;the rock of Gilbraltor.John Lennon had called the Wedding;quick,quiet,and British.And,Gilbraltor was a British territory in those day’s.So….that’s why John Lennon married there.And,I’ve alway’s liked;The long and winding road song!🎵 I’ve alway’s considered it;”very 😎 relaxing!😌

Best era of the Beatles? From 18 August 1962 until they broke up.

Apple needs to put out a box set for Magical Mystery Tour, with a bonus Yellow Submarine EP of the beatles tracks, with outtakes and demos covering the 10 months between Only a Northern Song (pepper sessions) through Hey Bulldog (early '68). Incidental MMT film music. Carnival of Light. Summer '67 jams. Hums Wild version of Across the Universe. All of it in one place.

Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields are masterpieces. But they were among so many others. I think what makes them special is that it made rather mundane places somewhere you want to go to. Strawberry Fields is not a field and has no strawberries. Penny Lane is just an any town road. But their music made them seem magical/special in a poetic way.

You missed their first psychedelic album entirely! REVOLVER!!! Also, George Harrison's WONDERWALL MUSIC is an epic of psychedelic experimentation! 💖❤💖🧡❤💛🧡💚💛💙💚💜💓💜💓💙💚💜💛💙🧡💚❤🧡

[@agustinkafka25]

@@SunFellow941 yeah i know 😂 I included revolver at the end of the previous video called the Beatlemania years where I cover the story of the Beatles from 1963 to 1966 when they stopped touring. I do talk about the change of style in their music and the beginning of a new era!

[@alancruzdominguez5074]

Revolver was the end of the Beatlemania and the beginning of the psychedelic era they wasn't already stop touring but that final tour was disastrous they didn't care a damn about it

[@alancruzdominguez5074]

The psychedelic years were from 1966 until february 1968

[@mitchellbatchelor1594]

No greatest era of The Beatles. Rock & Roll beginnings, mature folk, psychedelic, exploration of genres & classic rock all had surprises & great music. Ten year catalogue. Think about it, Taylor Swift has been around 15 years & only growth is country to pop. Not knocking her, just perspective.

They really could have fallen apart after Epstein's death. Thankfully they carried on and gave us so much great music to enjoy. Paul was largely responsible for keeping it together but the magic they had required those four lads being on board. They were destined to break up but imagine how hard it had to be to leave a band that had such worldly success.

[@agustinkafka25]

@@whichgodofthousandsmeansno5306 I agree ! I’m glad they stayed together for a few more years after that !

1967 was the only psychadelic year of the beatles.

[@imnotjerry2226]

Well if you compare tracks even from help, there are definitely elements taken from the psychedelic rock of the time. Not to mention the instrumentally transcendental tracks from revolver which were undeniably inspired by LSD both lyrically and arragement-wise. Though I would say Sgt. Pepper's is home of their most psychedelic offerings, I wouldn't say 1967 was the only year they dabbled in psychelia.

[@matthewhumcke3182]

@@imnotjerry2226 elements is the key word. it's approaching, but isn't really psychedelic yet. you have a good point with revolver (she said she said, tomorrow never knows, maybe Love You To) but 1966 wasn't the year of owning caravans, colorful and crazy fashion, magical mystery tour, It's All Too Much, artwork courtesy of The Fool, painted guitars and rolls Royce. 65 and 66 can have elements and be naturally leading up, but simply wasn't psychedelic yet. respectfully, I'm not trying to be rude. the 1968 music, fashion, mindset, LSD usage (or lack thereof), musical influences, painted guitars that were stripped of paint to the wood, etc are simply not psychedelic at all. not even revolution 9 is psychedelic: it's a pastiche and avent guard; abstract and off-putting. more about the tone of a revolution than the exploration of free love and discovery. strangely enough, it started and ended in '67 alone. February '68 brought us Hey Bulldog (being recorded), Lady Madonna and the inner light which didn't feel like Within You Without You. psychedelia was over. the closest it would get to non '67 was late '66 when Penny lane and strawberry fields was recorded (I think)

The psychedelic years wasn't the hippie summer of love '67 this was the pinacle but by early 1968 the psychedelic era was declined
