What is this: A tournament of Beatle songs, seeded like a tennis tournament or the NCAA basketball tournament in the USA. Pick a winner in each of the 8 matches. I'll tally the votes and the winners advance.
How to vote: Simpliest way is to cut and paste. For ease of counting, I prefer the numbers be left by the name of the album.
How it was seeded: I put what are often cited as the best Beatle albums in the top four slots, but with this group, even the next three slots were of high quality. I put the 13 original albums, then included LIVE AT THE BBC and the two PAST MASTERS albums as a way to round out the field.
Discussions of the choices are encouraged, but again for ease of counting, I request that the "ballot" be at the top of the page, and the comments below.
Thanks to all that want to take part!
