[Vision2020] Tomorrow Never Knows

I got the new Beatles album today: Tomorrow Never Knows.

Which is to say that I went to iTunes and looked at the song list and
made a CD out of songs that I already had since I already had all of
the Beatles music to date. And some of them are dead. I did purchase
the music video for "Hey Bulldog," which is nice.

Tomorrow Never Knows is a pretty good album. I would call it the
"Alternative Rock" Beatles Album. But it is only 43+ minutes long! And
they left out "Rain," "Happiness is a Warm Gun," and "Don't Let Me
Down," which fit perfectly with the theme of the album and are all
better than some of the songs that made it. Three songs each from
Revolver, The White Album, and Past Masters, vol. 2.

I can understand how you might leave off "Happiness is a Warm Gun."
But "Rain" and "Don't Let Me Down"? It makes NO sense.

Best, Joe
