Paul McCartney, Asked to Name the 1 Album Where the Beatles Were At Their Best, Lists 3 The Today Show

Paul McCartney, like any passionate fan of the Beatles, finds it difficult to choose his favorite album from the iconic rock band.

The legendary musician, 83, is Willie Geist’s latest Sunday Sitdown guest. Together, the two discussed McCartney’s decades-long career in the music industry, both with the band and as a solo artist. During their chat, Willie asked McCartney if he could name one album in the band’s discography that represents the Beatles at their “best.”

“That’s always a very difficult question, you know?” McCartney replied. “My mind went to ‘Rubber Soul,’ because I think that was a change in what we’d been doing.”

He said the 1965 album, their sixth, was a little more “advanced.” But, of course, he couldn’t highlight just one album in the band’s extensive catalogue. “Then I’d have to say ‘Sgt. Pepper’ was, like, a crazy different experience,” he continued, referring to their 1967 album, “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.”

He had one more album to add that is many fans’ favorite. “And then I would probably finish up with ‘Abbey Road,’” he said.

McCartney, who released his 12th studio album, “The Boys of Dungeon Lane,” on May 29, still reflects on his time in the band and their monumental success. He recalled the Beatles making their American debut on the “The Ed Sullivan Show” in 1964.
