60 Years of Rubber Soul by The Beatles!

prod. George Martin, released 3rd December 1965

It was the most out-there music they’d ever made, but also their warmest, friendliest and most emotionally direct. As soon as it dropped in December 1965, Rubber Soul cut the story of pop music in half — we’re all living in the future this album invented. Rob Sheffield for Rolling Stone

(continued excerpts from Sheffield's article)

Given the album’s impact […], it’s startling to note how fast and frantic the sessions were. The Beatles didn’t go into the studio with a mystic crystal vision to express — they went in with a deadline. They had to supply product for the 1965 Christmas season, which meant crunching it out in four frenzied weeks, from October 12th to November 12th. So they holed up in Abbey Road around the clock, pouring out music as fast as they could, holding nothing back. They were willing to try any idea, whether it turned out brilliantly (the sitar, the harmonium) or not (the six-minute R&B instrumental jam, which they wisely axed). They wrote seven of the songs in one week.

But with their backs against the wall, working under this pressure, the Beatles produced an album that was way ahead of what anyone had done before. Since these guys were riding new levels of musical fluidity and inspiration, firing on so many more cylinders than anybody else had, they stumbled onto discoveries that changed the way music has been made ever since. It was an accidental masterpiece — but one that stunned the Beatles into realizing how far they could go. After that, they went full-time into the masterpiece-making business.

Those four faces were peering out from record racks a few weeks later, in Robert Freeman’s classic distorted cover photo. For the first time, the band name was nowhere to be seen—only those cocky mugs. The four scared kids who looked so miserable a year earlier, on the cover of Beatles for Sale? Now brimming with arrogance. On fire with belief in their new music. Using instruments nobody can pronounce. Not really caring if you liked the old songs better. Full grown men, full of emotion and on top of the world. Meet the Beatles.

ونافذة تنقلنا إلى شهر رمضان

حيث الصيام ودروب الإيمان

والإكثار من الطاعات وقراءة القرآن

والدعاء والمغفرة على مر الزمان

And a window that takes us to the month of Ramadan.

Where fasting and the paths of faith.

And a lot of obedience and reading the Qur'an.

And supplication and forgiveness over time.
