A Drum Mystery in The Beatles' Most Beautiful Song | Dear Prudence

Описание: Dear Prudence is the second song on the landmark 1968 double album The Beatles (more commonly known as 'The White Album'). Written by John Lennon, it is often considered to be one of The Beatles' most beautiful and widely beloved songs. Within the song's many captivating layers, however, is an odd anomaly that has been a source of dispute among Beatle fans for decades: who is really playing the drums - is it Ringo Starr, or is it Paul McCartney? As a fair warning, once I point it out...you can't unhear this!

**Correction: in this episode, I mistakenly mentioned that Ringo fled to Greece for his vacation. In fact, he flew to Sardinia, Italy for rest and recuperation aboard Peter Sellers' yacht.
