I was going to put this in the other thread but your comment gives me the ideal opening...
Some people see the versatility as a strength. For me it's a weakness, as if they can't really make up their minds what they want to do. Classic albums are fantastic all the way through. With The Beatles from Rubber Soul onwards each album will have some songs you really like, but also some songs you really hate, and the rest somewhere in between. So for those of us who weren't swept up the the phenomenon at the time, The Beatles are a band who made some great songs, but they also made a load that weren't so good as well (and some that were simply crap), and so are really just like any other band that's ever existed.
