Very nice! Like the clean, matching look. Much better set than the official ones.

Suggestions: the odd one out, if any, is Magical Mystery Tour, which is too obviously drawn from the 'album' cover (I know they all are, but somehow this one shows it more) - you might try excluding the song titles (at least the lower ones, which I believe are not from the film) and zooming in so that the clouds reach the edges. I like the one Beatle on each spine idea, but the "With The Beatles" pics are so early they don't seem apt for the later films, and the black boxes somewhat disrupt the colours of the spines. You could use the "Help!" semaphore figures or the "Abbey Road" crossing figures instead to make a better graphic link across the four spines. Also not sure about the drumskin logo across all the titles - it's a bit too homogenous and again reminiscent of the early years only - and there are different "The Beatles" logos for all these projects. Hope this all doesn't sound too picky - just thinking out loud about what I might change, but they're great as is.
