Cranberry sauce

Some songs are like enigmas. You keep coming back to them and you never quite figure them out. And each time you rediscover them they sound different.

I have two theories about these riddle songs. First, they usually have weird chord progressions. They don't do what you'd expect and leave this uneasy feeling that someone's messing with your musical brain. Second, something strange usually happened during the recording.

42 years ago today at Abbey Road, London one kaleidoscope started to fall into place. That is I think it's not too bad.
