Each song on the sprawling double album The Beatles is an entity to itself, as the band touches on anything and everything it can. This makes for a frustratingly scattershot record or a singularly gripping musical experience, depending on your view, but what makes the so-called White Album interesting is its mess. Never before had a rock record been so self-reflective, or so ironic; the Beach Boys send-up "Back in the U.S.S.R." and the British blooze parody "Yer Blues" are delivered straight-faced, so it's never clear if these are affectionate tributes or wicked satires. Lennon turns in two of his best ballads with "Dear Prudence" and "Julia"; scours the Abbey Road vaults for the musique concrète collage "Revolution 9"; pours on the schmaltz for Ringo's closing number, "Good Night"; celebrates the Beatles cult with "Glass Onion"; and, with "Cry Baby Cry," rivals Syd Barrett. McCartney doesn't reach quite as far, yet his songs are stunning.

Tracks: Back in the U.S.S.R./ Dear prudence/ Glass onion/ Ob-la-di, ob-la-da/ Wild honey pie/ The continuing story of Bungalow Bill/ While my guitar gently weeps/ happiness is a warm gun/ Martha my dear/ I’s so tired/ Blackbird/ Piggies/ Rocky racoon/ Don’t pass me by/ Why don’t we do it in the road?/ I will / Julia/ Birthday/ Yer blues/ Mother nature’s son/ Everybody’s got something to hide except me and my monkey/ Sexy sadie/ Helter skelter/ Long, long, long/ Revolution I/ Honey pie/ Savoy truffle/ Cry baby cry/ Revolution 9/ Good night.
