The Beatles-Rubber Soul (1965)

In 1965 The Beatles were already at the peak of world popularity, their albums "Please Please Me", "With the Beatles", "A Hard Day's Night", "Beatles for Sale" and "Help", had reaped a unprecedented success in popular music, however all these albums were a kind of compilation of hits and hit songs.
With "Rubber Soul" the band takes a qualitative leap and becomes the first organic work as an entity, something much more than a compilation of successful singles.
The folk and acoustic ambience of "Norwegian Wood" shows the impact Bob Dylan had left on Lennon and McCartney.
On the other hand, "Think for Yourself" and "If i Needed Someone" by George Harrison evidenced the influence of Ravi Shankar and eastern philosophies.
In this album The Beatles were no longer content with being the numbers one with hit songs but also being the first to chart new horizons.
The palette of sounds on this album is the least astonishing, from the melodic "Michelle" and "Girl", to the aggressiveness of "Drive my Car" or "Run for Your Life, passing through the surprising and hypnotic" Nowhere Man ".
Undoubtedly a historical record, like so many others from the Liverpool quartet.
