The most dashed-off of the Beatles’ records, Yellow Submarine doesn’t have much to it: the goofy title track and « All You Need Is Love » are reprised from earlier discs, George Martin’s trifle of a score to the animated Submarine feature takes up the second half, and that leaves just four relatively insubstantial new tracks. The Beatles’ throwaways are anyone else’s classics, though: « Hey Bulldog, » the last song Lennon and McCartney wrote in full collaboration, has the instinctive urgency of their best work, Paul’s singalong « All Together Now » is awfully cute, and more than one band has dedicated its career to trying to replicate what George’s guitars are doing on his dazed, pulsing « It’s All Too Much. » –Douglas Wolk
