The Beatles - Revolution 9 (vinyl LP - first 40 seconds backwards)
The Beatles "Revolution 9" from the vinyl LP 'The Beatles' better known as "The White Album" issued in 1968, Apple records. Of all the infamous "Paul is dead" rumor clues, this arguably the most popular of the ones found on the records -- where "numer nine ... number nine ..." played backwards is heard to be "turn me on dead man ... turn me on dead man ..." so here's that clue for you all ... from side 4, track 5 of the White Album, the first 40 seconds being played in reverse -- you get to hear that bizarre piano passage as it normally sounded (which this morning, Nov 17, 2010, one day after iTunes starts to sell the Beatles, I found out that "bizarre piano passage" was from Robert Schumann '12 Etudes, Op. 13', for anyone who ever wondered) ... then 'turn me on dead man' ...
