Why did they put 1 - 2 garbage throwaway tracks in all of their otherwise perfect albums? Are they retarded? Was it a joke?

I think, that like all other human beings, they were just imperfect.

You need a bottom of the barrell. If those tracks were left off, 1-2 other, considered better tracks would now be the throwaway garbage. Imagine if Metallica left all the filler off the Re/Load albums, leaving just 1 album of supposedly solid tracks. Doubtless, a couple of those would "bubble down" to the bottom and be considered filler.

Their garbage (Yellow Sub, Within You, 64, I Want to Tell You) are still at least 7/10.

Interesting, /mu/ used to universally agree this band was bad, they'd bully you for even having these opinions. Not that any of you were old enough to post here back then

Within you without you is absolute kino and I'm tired of pretending. One of their best songs to listen to on psychedelics

It’s one of those that is good for a while but then becomes a slog. Should have been left out for Strawberry Fields.

Wrong. /mu/ was just a Beach Boys board so people felt compelled to shit on the Beatles out tribalism. Nobody ever said the music was bad.

The only later album with garbage throwaway tracks was the white album

I vehemently, but respectfully disagree.
The Beatles, I M H O, only had THREE bad songs throughout their entire career.
I can listen to almost ANY Beatles album from start to finish, without skipping ANY songs.

Mind you this is just subject to my own personal opinion, and nothing more.
If you think Ive been "Filtered" then so be it.
If you think I'm a "Pleb", well, you're entitled to YOUR opinion.
I'm sure there are plenty of Beatles songs I think are GOAT that you probably can't stand, but those are the three worst songs, I M H O, and I stand by that opinion.

more like 3-4. it's especially baffling considering how perfectionist they were with recording in the later years

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and it's nice to know that I'm not the only one battling against Blue Meanies like Boyband Fag, but you should at least save my pics, and post them when pretending to be me.
Have one on the house.
Save it for next time Barney the Podophile does one of his 60s One Direction comparisons.

This is why 'filler' needs to be included. Yellow Submarine is an iconic kids song and has probably created new generations of Beatle fans all on it's own. When I'm 64 is probably my dad's favourite Beatles song, and I grew up listening to it so often that I assumed it was one of their most popular songs and never questioned that.

They could have cut songs but it's more likely to be a net loss than gain, better to have a little extra filler than accidentally cut a great song or one that furthers their popularity somehow. The only filler I'd really support them cutting is a bunch of their early covers and replacing them with Lennon-Mccartney songs, whether that means including singles or songs they wrote for other artists, and maybe they could've turned the white album into a single album. But even then nobody can ever agree which songs to keep on it.

beatles are one of the only "post cringe" artists in existence. they were so good and so popular that everything was derivative of them and people at the time were too close to realize how good they are. they became cool again around late '10s

The Anon in question mistook you for Boyband Fag, and tried impersonating me.
An honest mistake.
Don't take it personally.
