Abracadabra: And as if by Magic, Along Came Revolver

By the mid-1960s, The Beatles had achieved global superstardom, but were increasingly frustrated by the limitations of touring and the expectations of their audience. "Rubber Soul," their previous album, had already hinted at a more introspective and adventurous direction, but "Revolver" would fully embrace the possibilities of studio experimentation.

Released in the United Kingdom on 5 August 1966, "Revolver" is the seventh studio album by The Beatles. Widely regarded as one of the most influential albums in popular music history, "Revolver" marked a departure from the band's earlier sound and a bold leap into experimental territory, both sonically and lyrically.

Many music fans consider this to be The Beatles masterpiece, including Fixing A Hole co-host Mark Wakely. In this episode we discuss the background to the album and why it has become so highly regarded.

If you’re a fan of the podcast, or you like to be a guest on an episode, we’d love to hear from you.
