Album Notes & Community Reviews

A brilliant, high-energy pastiche that simultaneously pays homage to Chuck Berry and parodies the vocal harmonies of the Beach Boys. Notably recorded with Paul McCartney on drums due to Ringo Starr's temporary departure, the track perfectly captures the eclectic tension of the White Album sessions.
