CONDITION: GATEFOLD COVER IN GOOD CONDITION SHOWING VINTAGE WEAR EG.., AGE FOXXING AND FLECKS. GENERAL WEAR. THE VINYLS APPEAR GOOD TO VG.

VG-Per Goldmine grading, Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as will light scratches that will affect the sound. I did not notices any skips, jumps or repeats. For the most part the album sounds well especially on the track "While my guitar gently weeps."

Recorded at Abbey Road Studios and Trident Studios, London, England between May and October 1968.
THE BEATLES (generally known as "The White Album" because of its cover) was a sprawling two-record set, highlighting the distinct personalities in the group as they matured and moved further away from each other. With the four Beatles playing like session men on each other's songs, the making of the album was fraught with tension. John Lennon's songs included a bitter take on people who read too much into the Beatles' lyrics ("Glass Onion"), reflections on loneliness and alienation ("Yer Blues," "I'm So Tired"), and the avant garde sound collage "Revolution 9."
George Harrison's songs offered black humor ("Piggies") and tender sadness ("While My Guitar Gently Weeps," with Eric Clapton on guitar). Paul McCartney provided both light, lyric songs ("Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," "Honey Pie"), and rockers ("Back In The U.S.S.R.," the explosive "Helter Skelter"). Ringo Starr made his solo songwriting debut with the goofy country/ska lilt of "Don't Pass Me By" and sang the album closer "Good Night."

Editorial Reviews
Ranked #8 in NME's list of the 'Greatest Albums Of All Time.'
NME (10/02/1993)

Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century
Vibe (12/01/1999)

Ranked #7 in Q's 100 Greatest British Albums - ...[Out of] boundless enthusiasm and creeping paranoia - comes [their] most peculiar record....Childish, colorful, antiquated and faintly macabre...
Q (06/01/2000)

Ranked #10 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time - ...THE WHITE ALBUM is an exhilarating sprawl - some of the Beatles' most daring and delicate work...
Rolling Stone (12/11/2003)

5 stars out of 5 -- It's the most honest portrait of a band breaking some limits and banging their heads against others.
Q

Each track is anchored by the unmistakable collaboration of The Beatles as a solid musical unit.
