10/10 sound
I thought this album was so amazing because of the doctumenty I watched about it. The addition of something like 12 extra songs in the last two weeks of writing. Some might say it’s bloated but I think it’s such a fun listen. I especially like the Eric Clapton feature on the amazing “while my guitar gently weeps”

All Time Gold Albums
I heard "Rocky Raccoon" for the first time in a sleepy late night car ride home with my mom when I was young. The song, so warm and haunting seemed to cradle me as it felt like it would never end.

Top 100 All Time
Coherently, this isn’t as tight as the other beatles albums, but it has some classics and some good deep cuts.
“Happiness is a Warm Gun” is so underrated.
“Blackbird” is a song my mom would sing when I was a kid.
We had an instrumental version of “I Will” play at our wedding when the guests were being seated.
The song “Birthday” HAS to be about my grandma Kathy because Paul McCartney and her have the same birthday. And it’s about him sharing a birthday with someone.

1968
The White Album is less a unified statement than a massive archive of four brilliant, restless musicians pulling in different directions simultaneously. Folk songs, musique concrète, proto-metal, country, chamber pop, satire, and raw blues all coexist because the band had become confident enough to follow almost any idea to completion. “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Happiness Is a Warm Gun,” and “Helter Skelter” alone would make it historically important. Its messiness is essential to its personality; the album constantly risks collapse and becomes more exciting because of it. You can hear individual identities hardening inside the group dynamic, which gives the record unusual psychological tension. A huge amount of later indie and alternative music inherited its sense that contradiction itself could be an aesthetic.
