With the Beatles / Side B / Round 1
Definitely the weaker of the 2 sides, with 4 of the 7 tracks being covers.

I almost went with Please Please Me leftover Hold Me Tight, but ultimately Devil in Her Heart got my vote. A rather limp cover. Nothing to see here.

Need to listen to this one properly, not sure I actually have played it more than once.

Devil In Her Heart for me, little to say here, it's a little dull.
Special mention to Hold Me Tight, I'm really liking this. Read online it wasn't highly regarded. That may be but it's my favourite at the moment.

It’s the one I’m least familiar with too. The old sophomore album curse.Silent Majority wrote: ↑17 Oct 2020, 1:57pmNeed to listen to this one properly, not sure I actually have played it more than once.

Re: With the Beatles / Side B / Round 1
In many ways, With the Beatles was an attempt to make Please Please Me Part 2, even down to the album closing Lennon cover (Money). It's a good record in its own right, however. They're still relying on covers to pad out the track listing, but the originals are already sounding far more confident.

Re: With the Beatles / Side B / Round 1
I kinda picked a couple at random. I need to listen to this one a few more times. I actually like the album a lot, but it's really an LP listening experience more than feeling strongly about one song over another for me.
