Following up on Keith Murphy "Dear Prudence" was Mia Farrow's sister. Mia says Pru was an excellent meditator...but maybe in retrospect she was hiding from Sexy Sadie!

Came back for another listen with you guys. Again, I laughed heartily through Revolution #9. These thoughts came to me....if you can find nothing to hang on to in it, then let go and listen to it as it is, as it emerges without grasping....this album is their most eclectic, and maybe the most eclectic album of all time, thus #9 fits the bill as an addition of a "musique concrète" , Ono-avant-gard sound collage...people resist this piece, but it is a key part of this double-album work of art. Thanks, guys. Miss you, Andy!

You've skipped "Magical Mystery Tour" & The Yellow Submarine soundtrack.

Revolution 9 was entirely John's baby. The rest of the Beatles, and also George Martin pleaded with John not to put it on, but he won the argument. He created it as a sound pastiche meant to flex his avant garde muscles a bit. At that point in time, there was an avant garde underground movement going on in England and it caught John & Yoko's attention and John just couldn't rest until he gave it a try against the will of the rest of the Beatles.
