Whether Abbey Road is the Beatles' best work is debatable, but it's certainly the most immaculately produced (with the possible exception of Sgt. Pepper) and most tightly constructed.

The perfect ending to a recording career, this LP shows a band still in its prime, capable of songwriting and recording feats others could only envy.

Best produced Beatles album with a fantastic flow. Straight forward at first glance, this album perfects the basics and expands upon them in an extremely satisfying way.
