We're back on the creepy side of the White Album this episode, exploring John's definitely not drug-influenced "Happiness Is A Warm Gun." This song moves through 3 different movements so quickly and adeptly you'd think it was a Paul tune. It's got an ominous vibe to it, though features some absolutely brilliant playing from the lads, and some insane time shifts. It's a really intriguing and vibey song, and it makes me feel a whole lot of things...including the creeps.
Joining us this week is Josh Bloom, author of the book The Apples In Stereo , a biography about the band The Apples In Stereo. He's also a music publicist and industry vet we've worked with in the past, and have had a great time getting to know. He's a big Beatles nerd like us and a really funny fella. Check out iamjoshbloom.com to get a copy of the book, check out his substack, his videos, and more!
What do you think about "Happiness Is A Warm Gun" at #65? Too high, too low or just right? Let us know in the comments on Facebook, Instagram, or find us now on Bluesky! Be sure to check out www.rankingthebeatles.com and grab a Rank Your Own Beatles poster, some of our new Revolver-themed merch, a shirt, a jumper, whatever you like! And if you're digging what we do, don't forget to Buy Us A Coffee!!
