    The great strength of the white album is that it encompasses so many styles. Rock, folk, musichall, kitsch, ballads and even early metal. _Revolution #9_ is avant-garde, which (like it or not), was an important part of Twentieth Century music. It's also one of the best examples of such to ever be committed to record.

    Rev' No.9 is a classic and one of my favourite tracks on The Beatles album, I still play and enjoy it. Those who find the track not to their taste totally misunderstand what the Beatles were about.

    Not for everyone but #9 is a great piece of abstract sound, an auditory collage where the mind is supposed to create the visuals. Again, not everyone is capable of being imaginative

    Im incredibly thankful the Beatles brought this type of avant garde art to the masses. Any criticism of it is almost always from the type of people who don’t ‘get’ a Jackson Pollock painting. When it comes to pure abstract art tracks, Revolution 9 is essential. Wouldn’t feel out of place on a Kid A era b-side.

    I remember well the critics' outrage over Revolution #9, which was so predictable that it was a motivating factor for Lennon to make the recording (he NEEDED to demythologize The Beatles by courting outrage), but I'm very curious to see the critical reaction to You Know My Name.

Btw, Brian Jones played the sax on it, he had died in '69 before it was released in '70 (recorded in '67).
