There is no better way to celebrate the enduring joys of the Beatles’ White Album than to see and hear this classic album complete, live on stage. Performed by an all-star cast which includes guitar virtuoso Laurence Juber from Paul McCartney and Wings and 90’s hitmaker (“She’s So High”) Tal Bachman, from The Beatles Channel on Sirius XM, this is the album that Rolling Stone called “the history and synthesis of Western music” upon its release in November 1968.
No singles were released from “The Beatles”, aka The White Album, yet it’s track listing contains countless classics. “Back In The U.S.S.R.”, “Revolution”, “Blackbird”, “Yer Blues”, “Dear Prudence”, “Birthday”, “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da”, “Savoy Truffle”, “Glass Onion”, Helter Skelter”, “Sexy Sadie” and of course “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” among the iconic songs you will hear in this complete performance of the Beatles’ White Album”
