Listening to the White Album with Peckman: Part 1 | w/Steve Barry | Ep 223

"The Beatles" AKA "The White Album" was released on November 22, 1968. This album, in direct contrast to the colorful and vivid previous album, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", was the only double album The Beatles ever released. 19 of the 30 songs on the album were written between March and April of 1968 at a Transcendental Meditation course in India. Their trip to India proved to be a much needed getaway from the chaotic "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" era. This album is regarded as one of the greatest albums of all time including an impressive range of genres and musical styles. They wrote around 40 songs in India, 26 of those were recorded in draft form at George Harrison's home in Esher, England in May of 1968. The album's final form was recorded between May and October of 1968, mostly at Abbey Road Studios, with some recordings done at Trident Studios.
