I sorta think 'Yer Blues' is the ringer that puts the white album over the top. But all of these arguments have merit. Wasn't the original proposition, though, that Revolver was the best album ever made by white folks? The Beatles are all fine and dandy, but come on. They're hardly the first who pop to mind. and how pure do your genes have to be to qualify? does Neil Young not count if he's got a injun in his woodpile? and was Beethoven black, as Anthony Braxton brilliantly asserts? --the whiteness of the african mole rat (moleface bob)

My vote goes to "Rubber Soul" or "Abbey Lane," but we're really splitting hairs. Most of the tracks the Beatles recorded during and following "Revolver" are pretty damn special.

One day the art teacher at Jefferson Junior High in Springfield Illinois said he wanted to play some tunes for our 7th grade class to see if we could identify the band and not one of us recognized the just released Revolver as the Beatles.
More bad white person music has been recorded through the ages than any of us cares to think. The Beatles -- more than just about anyone -- have redeemed us. skip PS Greatest album ever made is SONGS IN THE KEY OF LIFE on 11/18/02 2:46 PM, Crowmeat Bob at crowmeat@hotmail.com wrote:
