White Album, when's your last listen?


Okay, I have a vinyl copy purchased in 68 or 69 which of course was worn out long ago. Now I'm on my second cd copy after one of my daughters "borrowed" my first copy, and my grandson is listening to it now.
Well the other night I popped in the first cd and sat down to listen. When it finished I hit play again. The music truly is timeless. The next night I did the same with cd #2.
Absolutely wonderful stuff. The biggest surprise was on the song "I Will." My "BeatleSong" book says this was recorded by Paul and Ringo with Ringo on drums and backing vocal and Paul playing the rest. While listening I noticed Paul mimicking the bass line with "doo doo doo" in the right speaker. Impossible to guess how many times I've listened to this through speakers or headphones but never noticed this before, wow.
Think I'll try Sgt. Pepper next.

Anyone in/near Atlanta who would like my album (Apple)? No longer have a TT so no use for the album, which is in excellent condition.
''Blackbird'' motivated me to purchase my first-ever guitar, a Yamaha FG-180 (a staple of beginner's instrument) all those years ago, and this song became my first-ever learned song, complete with the foot tapping!

Second-ever learned song was ''Rocky Racoon''.

I played those two songs at a high-school show back in '77 or around then. People applauded asking for an encore and a third song.

I replayed blackbird one more time as those were the only two songs I knew back then!

I still finger-pick Blackbird at least once a week, it's a model of beauty and simplicity for a self-accompanied tune. It is truly timeless. I also went past my two-song repertoire over the years. Talk about an album that infuenced me...
Long long long. I used to play that track over and over. It's a perfect song.

The White Album is my favorite Beatles record
