As fans of the Fab Four may already know, 2018 marks the 50
th anniversary
of the landmark White Album. The Beatles’ only double album contains a
wealth of riches for listeners but also marked the beginning of the end of the
world’s greatest band. The program will include a discussion of their back-to-basics
recording approach and an analysis of key tracks, including “Dear Prudence,”
“Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” and “Helter
Skelter.” Presented by
Gary Wenstrup, an adjunct professor at the College
of DuPage who specializes in teaching everything Beatles.
