Sorry guys, but I find it a little strange how a thread can prompt so many seemingly related, yet irrelevant responses, while some other threads with relevant information prompt so few of them. Then again, it’s the Open Talk section, so there’s some grey area here.

On the topic, I have the White Album on old vinyl as well as part of the remasters collection on CDs. However, I’m not catching the bait every time they come up with an “up-sell” scheme. Thanks for the article @Plantsman13. Some interesting info in there.

@V7#5b9 Point taken...well off topic on this one.? We just cant help having some fun reminiscing some times ?...Wearing my moderator hat, I'll remind members to please stick to topic within reason. By all means continue to post freely with your valuable comtributions!

We should have a poll of how many of our current members can drive a stick shift!  (That wouldn't meet the rule of musically related, would it?)

But I'll bet of the 1500+ current members, other than some of us oldies, most can't!  ?

Actually, Neil I think maybe someone else got this thread off course, off topic!

 

Where in the heck are the moderators on this forum?!?!  It's blatantly obvious Steve needs to get some better ones???

All I did was mention my boxed set of White Album 8-track tapes (which ironically are black).

Well - OK, I did mention a few a few auto-related items. ?

Here you go - back to the thread:

@V7#5b9  I must agree there was wandering all over the "road" on this topic.  

On the topic, I found the discussion of the fundamental differences in the approach (and the environmental changes in their lives) to making Sgt Pepper versus the White Album of particular interest.  Ringo's memory of the terrible speakers at EMI after all of these years made me chuckle.
