I love Abbey Road! It's perhaps not the best collection of songs; while there are some truly excellent songs on it, my favourite songs would be on other albums. But as an album in itself, it's utterly fantastic.
There are few sections of any album that I enjoy more than the medley sequence at the end of Abbey Road, it's so perfectly written and put together that it's almost impossible to listen to each song separately; they HAVE to be listened to as a whole. Combined with songs like I want you, Oh Darling, Because... It's an album that I enjoy from start to finish, and also an album which is paced perfectly. The total is far, far more than the sum of its parts, which is why I would personally say that it is at least on a par with any other album they have ever made.
