Revolver and Rubber Soul are great albums, and MMT gave us "I Am The Walrus", which by itself is worth the price of admission. But the first two were arguably "only" the first steps towards Sgt. Pepper, while MMT would have been a strange outlier without it . . . much like Satanic Majesties Request was for the Stones.

And no need to be sorry. I lived through Beatlemania, but never caught the disease, so there's no offense taken. People like or dislike what they will. Yet one should give the boys their due, and thus I do.
