The Beatles '75
Loyd Grossman, Fusion, 20 February 1970
The Beatles do you still want to know what they're up to? Even if, sub specie aeternitatis, it's, like, nothing? Well, go ahead, indulge yourselves. Urban blight befouls our land and corrodes our souls, but go ahead. Read everything you get your hands on, find meaning in laundry slips and paper napkins scrawls. Don't say we didn't warn you when it all comes crashing down.
