- Surely a piece of news the whole world was waiting to hear!
[link] I'm currently listening to Volume 3 of the Beatles' Anthology series as I write this and can't believe its taken me so long to hear these albums. Perfect early hours of the morning music, you get the sense this was the time of night when a lot of these outtakes were recorded down at Abbey Road. A few years back I made the journey up to Abbey Road studio and walked across the famous zebra crossing (of course) in tribute to my favourite album .
Possibly more than their songs, it was the Beatles' sense of fun, and sheer enjoyment of playing music together that made me really want to be in a band. The Anthology series seems to really capture all this. But I would especially recommend their Live at the BBC double album for a taste of some of the fun they had in the early days.
A quick wiki search tells me that the great White Album was released on this very day forty years ago! I'm sure another batch of reissues is on the way from EMI.
