Title: The Beatles Survivor #11 Winner: WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS!!! Post by: pixletwin on August 05, 2017, 10:20:47 AM The writing was clearly on the wall. This was the beginning of the end...
We are going to split the album in two, so round #11 is Disc 1 and round #12 will be Disc 2. Quote The Beatles, also known as the White Album, is the ninth studio album by English rock group the Beatles, released on 22 November 1968. A double album, its plain white sleeve has no graphics or text other than the band's name embossed,[a] which was intended as a direct contrast to the vivid cover artwork of the band's earlier Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Although no singles were issued from The Beatles in Britain and the United States, the songs "Hey Jude" and "Revolution" originated from the same recording sessions and were issued on a single in August 1968. The album's songs range in style from British blues and ska to tracks influenced by Chuck Berry and by Karlheinz Stockhausen. On release, The Beatles received favourable reviews from the majority of music critics, but other commentators found its satirical songs unimportant and apolitical amid the turbulent political and social climate of 1968. The band and Martin have since debated whether the group should have released a single album instead. Nonetheless, The Beatles reached number one on the charts in both the United Kingdom and the United States and has since been viewed by some critics as one of the greatest albums of all time.

I like both, but I don't love them. At least Wild Honey Pie doesn't overstay it's welcome...at 3:50 Don't Pass Me By is the 3rd longest song on disc 1. I kind of like the Anthology version which is shorter, stripped-down, and Ringo talks over the fade. I don't like the sped up mono version.
Well, I'll reluctantly choose Don't Pass Me By. I'm a big fan of Good Night. Even if the Beatles had released the White Album as a single LP, I think Good Night should have closed it. I think it's a perfect way to end the album and give Ringo a lead vocal. Perhaps if John and George were more involved, Don't Pass Me By would have turned out a little better? Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: KDS on August 05, 2017, 01:13:54 PM Easy first round. Wild Honey Pie, easily IMO the best argument on disc one for The White Album being a single album.

Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: Wata on August 05, 2017, 07:34:54 PM Wild Honey is a great song.
Wild Honey Pie is not a great one, so my vote goes against that. Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: SMiLE-addict on August 05, 2017, 08:06:36 PM I'll concur with Wild Honey Pie, I guess.
Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: Adult Child on August 06, 2017, 09:26:58 PM I would've definitely done the whole album instead of 2 parts.
My first choice regardless of how it was done would be Wild Honey Pie. Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: pixletwin on August 07, 2017, 09:42:28 AM Only 8 smilers playing? Where is everyone? Luckily I won't have time to tally and post until tonight.
Where are you folks? Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: SMiLE-addict on August 07, 2017, 05:56:07 PM I think maybe there are too many ambiguous tracks on this album for some people to vote. Some songs - like, say, Rocky Raccoon - I can't decide if it's a good song or a bad song. I mean, I kinda like it in a goofy sort of way, but I also recognize that's it's not like some sort of major work of art. So do I vote for it sooner, or later? Probably half the songs on the list are like that, at least to me.
Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: JL on August 07, 2017, 06:37:15 PM Wild Honey Pie also for me. It's sort of interesting, but it barely even feels like a real song. It's just so....weird, which isn't unusual for The Beatles, but it's also not very good, which is unusual for them.

You can't think of it as if you were declaring your everlasting hate for a song when you vote off. It's a game. Have fun.

Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #11: The Beatles (the White Album part 1) Post by: JL on August 08, 2017, 03:18:27 PM Mmm. Tough choice. Ringo's song is nice, but it always seemed like a low point on the album to me. Just a pleasant country song, but nothing that great. Then again, as much as I like certain parts of Piggies (the harpsichord is lovely), it's one of the songs I listen to the least on the album as well, and given how strong George's other songs are, it always seemed like a disappointment. Just too lightweight.

We are going to split the album in two, so round #11 is Disc 1 and round #12 will be Disc 2. Quote The Beatles, also known as the White Album, is the ninth studio album by English rock group the Beatles, released on 22 November 1968. A double album, its plain white sleeve has no graphics or text other than the band's name embossed,[a] which was intended as a direct contrast to the vivid cover artwork of the band's earlier Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Although no singles were issued from The Beatles in Britain and the United States, the songs "Hey Jude" and "Revolution" originated from the same recording sessions and were issued on a single in August 1968. The album's songs range in style from British blues and ska to tracks influenced by Chuck Berry and by Karlheinz Stockhausen. On release, The Beatles received favourable reviews from the majority of music critics, but other commentators found its satirical songs unimportant and apolitical amid the turbulent political and social climate of 1968. The band and Martin have since debated whether the group should have released a single album instead. Nonetheless, The Beatles reached number one on the charts in both the United Kingdom and the United States and has since been viewed by some critics as one of the greatest albums of all time.

Some people don't play every round. Edit: I knew you'd agree. As the saying says, "silence is sign of agreement". Btw, I looked up that word, "whinging". As everybody knows, I am not native English speaker. To whinge means "to complain", not "to ask people questions" - & on topic too, mind you. :) I'm very curious about things & like asking people various questions. Why we must boringly just pick least favorite song when we can discuss too? I think it's good thing, don't you? :D

My two favorites in this section of the White Album are Blackbird and Martha My Dear. Who wrote those? Anyway, am really preoccupied right now with the situation in Texas right now, with a number of dear friends in harm's way. So won't be posting much on SS other than sending positive vibes to Billy Castillo.

The writing was clearly on the wall. This was the beginning of the end... We are going to split the album in two, so round #11 is Disc 1 and round #12 will be Disc 2. Quote The Beatles, also known as the White Album, is the ninth studio album by English rock group the Beatles, released on 22 November 1968. A double album, its plain white sleeve has no graphics or text other than the band's name embossed,[a] which was intended as a direct contrast to the vivid cover artwork of the band's earlier Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Although no singles were issued from The Beatles in Britain and the United States, the songs "Hey Jude" and "Revolution" originated from the same recording sessions and were issued on a single in August 1968. The album's songs range in style from British blues and ska to tracks influenced by Chuck Berry and by Karlheinz Stockhausen. On release, The Beatles received favourable reviews from the majority of music critics, but other commentators found its satirical songs unimportant and apolitical amid the turbulent political and social climate of 1968. The band and Martin have since debated whether the group should have released a single album instead. Nonetheless, The Beatles reached number one on the charts in both the United Kingdom and the United States and has since been viewed by some critics as one of the greatest albums of all time.

We are going to split the album in two, so round #11 is Disc 1 and round #12 will be Disc 2. Quote The Beatles, also known as the White Album, is the ninth studio album by English rock group the Beatles, released on 22 November 1968. A double album, its plain white sleeve has no graphics or text other than the band's name embossed,[a] which was intended as a direct contrast to the vivid cover artwork of the band's earlier Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Although no singles were issued from The Beatles in Britain and the United States, the songs "Hey Jude" and "Revolution" originated from the same recording sessions and were issued on a single in August 1968. The album's songs range in style from British blues and ska to tracks influenced by Chuck Berry and by Karlheinz Stockhausen. On release, The Beatles received favourable reviews from the majority of music critics, but other commentators found its satirical songs unimportant and apolitical amid the turbulent political and social climate of 1968. The band and Martin have since debated whether the group should have released a single album instead. Nonetheless, The Beatles reached number one on the charts in both the United Kingdom and the United States and has since been viewed by some critics as one of the greatest albums of all time.

I've always considered I Will a hidden gem. Conversely, Happiness Is A Warm Gun is a common favorite (though it is a bit polarizing). Even The Beatles themselves considered it a top track. Anyway... I Will Anyone have a mono/stereo preference? They are noticably different.
