HELP was the last Beatles album to feature a cover version (Larry Williams`s "Dizzy Miss Lizzie"), and is considered a turning point in the quality of their songwriting. Like the previous album`s "Im a Loser," "You`ve Got To Hide Your Love Away" was Lennon`s nod to the influence of Bob Dylan. McCartney`s gift for melody was obvious in "I`ve Just Seen A Face." And Harrison`s songwriting contributions grew to two tracks.
Instrumentally, "Ticket To Ride"`s off-beat rhythm was Ringo`s masterpiece, while the string quartet in the huge hit "Yesterday" was unusual for a rock band at that time; it was the start of a stellar series of McCartney ballads with strings ("Eleanor Rigby," "She`s Leaving Home").
