Last Wednesday marked the 52nd anniversary of the release of The Beatles White Album. This was a double album, which was a big deal at the time. It was also notable for the all white album cover with just the words, “The Beatles” and the number of the album on it.
In retrospect you can see all of the Beatles starting to do their own things and this was the beginning of what would be the end of the band two years later.
In honor of this anniversary, I have six links to online articles about the White Album and one documentary video.
And then there’s the MBIP Coming Attractions for what’s happening on the blog this week.
