As I said on FB, it's great that '66 is still on "the big wheel", but it's also strange, in that the Sixties got short shrift during A-to-Z.

Tomorrow nevah know, do one?  two BOSes so far -- '66 is 10-way-tie territory, quite often.

Love me some Revolver tunes. "Tomorrow Never Knows" sounds downright subversive, even in 1966.

I got no love for "Little Red Book". I've always been bothered by the chords which don't seem to match the melody. I imagine the dissonance is intentional, but ick.

perhaps their way of saying "we know this is a Burt Bacharach tune, but we're not a pop band, yo."
