It's crazy to think nowadays bands have a 3 year gap inbetween albums and this lot were making classics every 6 months or something.
Also: Helter Skelter. I'd burn down an orphanage to write a song that good.
They would make two albums a year and they toured so much in their early years the guys were writing new songs on tour bus's so they could use as much time as possible to make it in the (very limited) studio time they had.

Helter Skelter is a great song. I don't see how they can make the words fit so well in the songs they wrote.
