Chapter 14 As Advertised 2

• “The Beatles are probably the greatest pop musicians of the 20th Century, I’ll give them that. I love ‘em, especially the White Album. But except on a few songs like ‘Revolution’ and ‘Helter Skelter,’ they don’t really rock. Not hard. They’re light and happy even when they’re trying to sound like they want to fuck you up. Even their darker stuff like ‘A Day In The Life’ or ‘Strawberry Fields’ or ‘I Am The Walrus’ is… ethereal.”
• “Ethereal,” I said, nodding my head and raising my eyebrows mockingly.
• “Is that too big a word for a rock musician to use, Ms. Journalism Snob?” he teased me.
