i’ve seen a lot of people arguing about whether or not MMT is an album because of the fact side 2 is just non album singles. anyways heres a version without any non-album singles (except all you need is love because of course) that would 100% be considered an album if it were official

what if the beach boys finished SMiLE with a little help from their friends?

since the two bands were kind of competing until this point (pet sounds being made in response to rubber soul, revolver being made in response to pet sounds, etc), it would be cool if that whole thing ended with the two bands making their masterpiece together

during the making of the get back documentary, peter jackson invented an AI to be able to isolate the voices of the beatles out of noisy recordings, and eventually led to paul and ringo completing “now and then”, a song considered for tug of war, but deemed too hard to work with at the time. once they finished it, wanting to go out with a bang, decided to make a full on final beatles album using new paul and ringo compositions, the completed but unreleased ”real love” from the tug of war sessions (which essentially became a carnival of light style legend to the fans at this point) and completing more unreleased demos by john and george.

also includes our prayer and gee, hope you all like it

in 1980, the beatles put out a second double album with little to no announcement. it had an outer cover poking fun at the mangled ’60s capitol albums (often also making people in stores mistake it for an early beatles album, only to be flashbanged by temporary secretary)

the album’s back cover “tracklisting” was a random mess of beatles songs from different eras (and some songs that aren’t even theirs) put together incoherently

however, once you take off the outer cover, you see the actual album cover and tracklist, showing that this is actually a followup to the white album

in late 1978, john becomes active with the band again, and the beatles go on tour for the first time since 1966, thus not having time to write a full new album this year. because of this, they decided to take some inspiration from pink floyd’s ummagumma, and do a half-album-half-live-album idea.
