And so 1965 is left behind and we move into the bold new world of 1966 with the mighty Revolver and its opening track, Taxman.

Is it a perfect album opener? How do the lyrics stand up today and do they still (or indeed did they ever) work? And just how good is everyone on this?

It's B-side territory once again on Stuffology as JG and Andrew tackle deal with a little Rain (though shelter under a little Anthology chat first).

Is it really as good as its reputation? Are the backwards vocals and guitar lines effectively pushing musical frontiers or cheesy and difficult to take seriously? And who wins the coveted "Best Cover Version of This Song?" award?

We have something of a disagreement on Stuffology this time round as one of our beloved hosts (it says here) considerably prefers this song compared to the other - but which one? It's time to tackle Paperback Writer.

Is the song really the hinge around which the Beatles career pivots? Does it stand up to any kind of meaningless analogy. And - tangentially relevant - what ARE the best cover versions ever? (Not, it should be said, of this song...)

It's a minisode this week as Andrew and JG mop up a missing track that has thus far not been covered, Bad Boy. Is it a decent cover version as cover versions are mostly left in the past? Can much be said about the performances? And just how short can one episode of Stuffology be?

It's album review time on Stuffology as JG and Andrew tackle Rubber Soul in its entirety rather than piece by piece.

Is the album truly the starting point for what was to come? What did contemporary critics make of it (to say nothing of current ones)? And is the album one that benefits from being seen as a whole rather than a series of parts?

We bow out Rubber Soul with easily the most controversial song on it, Run For Your Life.

Does the song deserve it's dismal reputation? Is Lennon right when he claims it's the worst song he ever wrote for the Beatles? And is there any redemption to be had here?

We're almost at the end of Rubber Soul now but before the album bows out we have two final tracks to cover. One is rather notorious and the other is this, If I Needed Someone. How is George's songwriting coming along? Has he managed to pull up alongside Lennon and McCartney in the writing stakes? And how much jangle can one song meaningfully contain?

There's probably some really clever way of saying that we made you, um, wait for this episode but here it it now but I can't think of one so anyway, it's Wait!

Is there much to get worked up about here? Does it continue to give Side 2 of Rubber Soul a boost? And who is the stand-out performer on the track? (Hint: rhymes with Bingo Car)

It's another all-time classic to fall under the Stuffology microscope this episode with Lennon's mighty In My Life.

Does the song deserve its reputation as one of his very best pieces of work? Do the rest of the band contribute equally? And just how many cover versions are there to be discussed?

It's another Bitchy McCartney Number (tm), of which we have had a few lately but how does "I'm Looking Through You" comare to the others? Is there a Wilburys-esque twist (pun very much intended) in the mix? And who's playing what, exactly?
