How We Created The Perfect Single Disc Beatles White Album

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzdhgaB_jrw

I find the one disc concept easy for the White Album,
simply exclude Revolution, Revolution No. 9 and Good
Night and then it fits into a single CD, without the
three songs that annoy me. That's what I did with
my phone and computer, leave those forth side songs
to the CDs if I want to hear it all.

I was once able to fit the White Album on a 90-minute cassette by
eliminating "Long Long Long," "Revolution 1," and "Revolution 9."

Everything is the same on Side A through "Rocky Raccoon," then the
edits are on Side B.

Mine, too! Or rather, it's great to have the same song done in two
contrasting styles, both excellent. Kinda harkens back to Sgt. Pepper + Reprise, the first slightly restrained, the latter with all stops out.

My favorite track on the album is one that they got rid of, "Savoy Truffle."

If I picked the songs it would be:

SIDE ONE - A bit under 26 minutes
Back In The USSR
Dear Prudence
Glass Onion
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Happiness Is A Warm Gun
I'm So Tired
Blackbird
I Will

SIDE TWO - About 27 and a half minutes
Julia
Birthday
Yer Blues
Helter Skelter
Revolution I
Savoy Truffle
Cry Baby Cry
Good Night

I find Long Long Long a necessary song, with it's
sentimentality and it's loud drumming! I would
miss it, except I don't like it's ending.

Think about it, the loudest and quietest songs
on four sides beginning and ending side three.

The original CDs faithfully copy that dynamic.

Long Long Long is one of my favorite George songs. It's low-key,
emotional, real, and beautiful. It's an important part of the album.

Long Long Long is one of my favorite George songs.

It's not my favourite Harrison song, but I'd lose all of
side four before I took off Long Long Long... songs like
Wild Honey Pie, Don't Pass Me By, and Good Night are weak
and should probably have been kept for B-sides of singles.

Long Long Long is quite a good song.

I just played it to refresh my memory and I don't remember when I last heard it. To me it is a
throwaway filler track I barely even remember ever hearing before. Nothing against
George, "Savoy Truffle" is my favorite track on the album. But "Long, Long, Long"
is utter shite.
