No, it was supposed to be a connecting song after Mean Mr. Mustard (You can hear the end note at the beginning of Her Majesty), but they decided not to use it. They accidently left it on the end of the tape reel for Abbey Road, so it ended up being left on the album.

It's true that it was an accident at first, but Paul liked it so they kept it on the album. It's not like people weren't listening through the album before it was released.

I love Revolver but I think " A Hard Days Night" might be their most underrated. That album influenced the Byrds to merge folk with rock and the 12 string jangle sound of the Byrds and others also.

Some of the songs are even modal in it's harmony which in itself in rock music was a rarity.

I've only heard Abbey Road and Sgt. Pepper's, and if Sgt. Pepper's is supposed to be the height of their creativity, then I am thoroughly disappointed.

Give me Abbey Road anyday.

It's Rubber Soul for me. The White Album is a close second though.

There's too much crap in The White Album for me to even consider it in their top 5. The whole album is such a mess, and not in a good way like other albums can be.

I'd have to go with Revolver, followed by Abbey Road, and then Sgt. Pepper.

I like Sgt. Pepper, but I never saw why people always seem to think it was such a godly album.

I'm not sure on the White Album as I haven't listened to it in a while.

It's a close one between Sgt Pepper and Magical Mystery Tour.
