The Beatles' eponymous double LP, usually known as the White Album because of its cover design, came out forty years ago today. Time sure flies when you're having fun.
To mark the occasion, here's the second song, with a snippet of the first (a jet landing) at the beginning just to show that nothing in this world is perfect.
I once saw Siouxsie and the Banshees play this song live, and it's worth noting that they used almost exactly the same arrangement. No surprise--this may be one of the best song arrangements you'll ever hear. Every part adds something to the overall effect. And there are a lot of parts, but the song never feels cluttered.
