Anecdotique : le dernier album des Beatles devait s'intituler « Everest » et arborer, en couverture, une photo des quatre musiciens en haut du fameux mont, ou tout au moins sur ses pentes ; Ringo Starr, ne souhaitant pas du tout effectuer ce voyage jusqu'au Tibet, finit par lancer, sur le mode de l'humour, au détour d'une conversation légèrement tendue : « Fuck it ; let's just step outside and name it Abbey Road ».

The Beatles - Piggies

Album: The Beatles (White Album), 1968
lyricist and composer: George Harrison
George Harrison

Have you seen the little piggies
Crawling in the dirt?
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt to play around in

Have you seen the bigger piggies
In their starched white shirts?
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts to play around in

In their sties with all their backing
They don't care what goes on around
In their eyes there's something lacking
What they need's a damn good whacking

Everywhere there's lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon

This Day in Rock Music History - 22 Aug - Ringo Quits Beatles

  1. A sign of rising tensions among the Fab Four, Ringo Starr left The Beatles during The White Album recordings. In "Anthology", Ringo cited feeling he was an outsider and not playing the drums very well. But when he told John, and then Paul, about his feelings, each claimed himself as feeling the outsider! Ringo left for vacation in Sardinia with his family, where he subsequently wrote "Octopus's Garden". In the meantime in Ringo's absence, the band recorded "Back in the USSR" with McCarntney on drums and Lennon on bass. They also recorded "Dear Prudence". But soon the band sent Ringo a telegram, asking him to return. He arrived back on 3 Sep to find his drums decorated with flowers saying "Welcome Back Ringo", just in time to shoot the group video for "Hey Jude" and "Revolution".
