Amazon.com essential recording The Beatles' last days as a band were as productive as any major pop phenomenon that was about to split. After recording the ragged-but-right Let It Be, the group held on for this ambitious effort, an album that was to become their best-selling. Though all four contribute to the first side's writing, John Lennon's hard-rocking, "Come Together" and "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" make the strongest impression. A series of song fragments edited together in suite form dominates side two; its portentous, touching, official close ("Golden Slumbers"/"Carry That Weight"/"The End") is nicely undercut, in typical Beatles fashion, by Paul McCartney's cheeky "Her Majesty," which follows. --Rickey Wright

Abbey Road at it's BEST November 26, 2009 Thomas A. Wright (Matthews NC) It's very simple, this is the best production CD of "Abbey Road" that has ever been released. If you are a Beatle fan this is a must have item. I played it through three times when I first opened it because I just couldn't stop listening. I have purchased three new remastered CD's (White Album, Let It Be and Abbey Road) so far and plan to purchase the others soon. Trust me on this one!
Beattles Fan November 21, 2009 Smile (New York) I am a beattle fan and I love all there music This album is one of my favorites Regadless if you are young or old you will enjoy this music
The Real Thing November 18, 2009 Starsailor (Geneva, Switzerland) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
For once it wasn't just a commercial gimmick. This remastered edition is truly sensational for any Beatles fan. Well worth it even if you own an older CD version. The sound is so much tighter, it sounds so much more like a band playing together, not just like an addition of random instruments (although some people have disagreed, but they should listen to the original vinyl). The result is excellent even on my smaller CD system. If you liked the 2003 "Let it be...Naked" remaster, you are going to love this one. Let's just hope other past gems are gonna get the same treatment. The Stones' "Sticky Fingers" springs to mind.
Remastered - Awful sound November 12, 2009 John Sparkman (Denver, CO) 0 out of 10 found this review helpful
Most definitely don't bother with the remastered version(S) they have vocals on one side of the room and the music on the other. Unless your stereo has the ability to combine both, do buy the mono, or origional stereo if available!!
Another GREAT Beatles CD! November 10, 2009 BJ Mancke 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm slowly buying all of the recently released remastered Beatles CD's from Amazon. Soon, I'll have them all. Help, and Abby Road were first on my list. Any Beatles fan should understand the way I feel about the way the Beatles changed music as we knew it back in the day. I was lucky enough to have an older sister who took me to see the Beatles in Germany in 1964. I was only 10 years old and had no idea that the group I was watching would have such a profound impact on Rock and Roll in the years to come. I will however remember that the first record albums I ever purchased (while still in Germany) were "Meet the Beatles" and "Help". I still have those thick, plastic Mono albums, and I'll never part with them. The clarity and perfection of these remastered CD's earn my highest rating!
