To finish the night:

Actual conversation with my brother this morning, in the car:

My brother: All the Beatles albums are awesome because, um, like take for example this one (we are listening to Sgt. Peppers). I forgot half these songs were on here.

Me: Yeah, but you still have to pick a favorite.

My brother: I guess I pick Revolver.

Me: It's the snobby choice, though. It's so obvious to pick Revolver that I think it's become uncool to pick Revolver.

My brother: You have a point. (frowns, thinking about it) Maybe I'd pick um, Abbey Road, instead.

Me: I always pick the White Album. The White Album is the new Revolver. I even love Revolution No. 9. I am like the only one.

My brother: Oooh. Yeah. I'm gonna say it's the White Album now too. Yoko ONO!

Fuck yes, people.

Well, I was born not even a year before the Beatles officially dissolved (1969 - oh, and my Dad was one of THOSE fans who blamed Yoko and Linda, though he has seen the error of his ways now), and I remember my cousin insisting on wearing black to school after John Lennon had died. So I'm between people who actually remember the albums coming out and between youngsters such as yourself.*g*
