I agree, a mix would be the best exposure to a band with as long and as varied a catalog as the Beatles', but:

1) I only own a few albums (CDs) of theirs myself (sadly, Revolver doesn't happen to be one of them)
2) I would probably go crazy attempting to compile an 80-minute "best of" CD for that band, even if I did own all of their works.

I figured that, in lieu of that option, it might also be valuable (or at least interesting) to him to hear a complete album of theirs from start to finish, rather than a collection of famous songs from different eras. Thanks for your input.

Ha. I admit, I'm behind any technological curve by several years, easily. While I have hardware capable of music (and other) downloads, I don't care to pay for a legal one in this case, and I'm pretty leery of any that could be considered even remotely illegal.

Maybe I'm being unduly paranoid, but music sharing/downloads aren't something I've ever really looked into, and as such I have no idea where to, or how to, search for something safely.
