you know what always freaked me out...at the end of i want you(she's so heavy) you've got clapton wailing away and the music sounds like a storm and then it suddenly stops....and then you turn the album over...and its Here Comes the Sun...and its just like there's a sun coming out of a storm...its AMAZING.

I don't think Clapton played on I Want You - All guitars were played by Beatles.

Hi Lonelypeople

I did check up on this last night before I posted my reply, and Mark Lewisohn's Beatles' Chronicles book makes no reference to Clapton playing on the track.

Anyone else have any views on this?

I think of Abbey Road as one complete album, so it's definitely a tough choice....but I'd go with Something slightly edging out Come Together and Oh Darling.

Something is just a wee...overrated...*picture of me flying a blimp* *board users take out a big bazooka and blows up my blimp*
*I get out of ash*
*stumbles around*

I guess I just love the silly!

I wish I could have taught it to my students but these days I would get so much sh** for it due to its violent content.  (Damn you political correctness!)  So I taught them Octopus' Garden instead...much safer!
