This was from the Beatles' double album that showed that after Sgt
Peppers and Magical Mystery Tour and the meditation in India, that
they could still play rock `n' roll. A lot of the songs on the white album
were written in India and recorded with only about 2 of the Beatles present.
This song is an example of that with a catchy riff to go with it.
Birthday - The Beatles
