The Beatles, also known as the White Album, is the ninth studio album and only double album by the English rock band the Beatles. Its inclusion in my list was an afterthought - even after over 50 years, I'm not convinced it really works as an album. On the other hand, it is a stunning tour de force, combining so many influences and genres on two LP records, and it does contain some of their best songs - but also plenty of mediocre ones. It has often been remarked that it should have been condensed into just one record - the only problem is there's no agreement which songs actually to prune. Personal favourites are Back In The U.S.S.R. (a standard karaoke pick for me), Dear Prudence, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Blackbird, I Will, Julia, and Helter Skelter.
