Music Banter - View Single Post - Cuting the The Beatles (White Album) down to a single LP

This is really difficult. I actually rather enjoyed a large portion of the White Album (though some of it's best left to deeply drugged moods). Well.

Furthermore, a single LP cut during that era probably wouldn't have been able to harbor 15 tracks (I think that's absolutely ludicrous for anything other than those shitty K-Tel compilations of the 70s & 80s) so I'm gonna go ahead and keep it era-appropriate, with an 11 track maximum.

I think I'll mix the tracks up a little, too.

Side A

Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me & My Monkey
Dear Prudence
Martha My Dear
I'm So Tired
Glass Onion

Side B

Savoy Truffle
Mother Nature's Son
Honey Pie
Happiness is a Warm Gun
I Will
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
