Is it just me or is this album kinda of a let down. I dont know what i was expecting but i find it doesnt have the same little charm their other records have like rubber soul and revolver. Sgt pepper had this sort of experimental thing going for it which i love and the white album has a good range of genre in it which I find cool. But not sure what abbey road has that is special. And I do realize that some great songs are on it but it doesnt have that charm I find. Excuse me for the rant
Suck my dick this is objectively the best beatles album, the medley is amazing
Yeah I don't know what to tell you, but no, not at all. I think it's The Beatles at their absolute creative best, which isn't to imply it's the most experimental or forward thinking, just that it distills everything that was great about them and uses it in a tasteful, fully realized manner.
I Want You (She's so Heavy) is the best song they ever made.
The suite on the second half is exquisite, but I agree with OP. This is the last-recorded Beatles album, and it is highly uncollaborative. Only the White Album features less collaboration.
Revolver
Sgt. Pepper's
Rubber Soul
--all miles ahead of this album for me. I personally even like Help! more although I will acknowledge that's a case of personal taste trumping objective fact.
The Beatles fell apart after Sgt Pepper

The cut from I Want You to Here Comes the Sun is one of the best transitions between two songs in all of music.

It actually doesn't cut to Here Comes the Sun; the side ends after that song.
Abbey Road Medley is the best thing they ever made, which is already enough to put it above Sgt Pepper's.

The best song of that album is Octopus's Garden, the rest are whatever.
Abbey Road is your mum's favourite Beatles album
Abbey Road is for Beatles fans. Sgt Peppers and Revolver are for music fans.

I'd replace Sgt Peppers for either Magical Mystery Tour or Rubber Soul
