there's nothing that i can say about cd that hasn't already been said. so if you've never heard this, shame on you.
This is by far my FAVORITE Beatles Album. With the famous solo on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" probably explains that. I hate it when people call it a "self indulgent" album. What a come back to rock from their album, "Magical Mystery Tour". It has awsome music. It is a surprise, as break-up was in their future that they could create such a.WONDERFUL album. From the exparamental "Wild Honey Pie" to the slow but inpowering "Dear Prudence" this album has it all. Don't let the plain cover fool you, this double-album is so well-thought out.
Personally I think this album has more of an influence on ROCK than Sgt. Pepper. WHO CARES. All in all you should buy this, REAL ROCK, album.
This is culmination of the creative genius of one of the greatest pop musical groups in the history of the world.
With the exception of a few known hits, the rest of the album is a waste. I wanted to complete my collection of Beatles albums and I was told no collection was complete without the White Album. I was dissappointed, sounded like the Beatles were doing heavy drugs at the time of the release of this album. I wish I could return it for the Best of the Moody Blues. - RB
Even Ringo's "Don't Pass Me By" with its chugging melody will have you tapping your toes. The Beatles (aka The White Album) as a whole, is perhaps the perfect album. A must have for any Beatles fan or for someone who hasn't listened to their music in awhile. It has to be listened to in its entirety, no skipping around. From the opening jet sounds of "Back in the USSR" to the screaming riffs of "Helter Skelter", The Beatles will take you back to the late 60's in a heartbeat. In case you've forgotten how truly great this band was, this one will refresh your memory. Don't pass it up.
