I’ve always found the intro the only decent part of the whole song, interesting that you see it the other way round.

Right now I can only say one track – Revolution 9 from the White Album . I really can not understand why they put this 8.22 minutes long track on vinyl!???

^^ Because some of us like it.
I wouldn’t say it’s the best, of course, but not the worst either.

Yip. Its ghastly, i hate hearing it – the only Beatles track I struggle to get thru and want it off as soon as it comes on. I cannot underestimate just how crap I think it is.
Quite brilliantly incredibly Paul almost matched this feat with another track called ‘Hold Me Tight ‘. I doubt another artist has recorded two different songs with the same title and both are atrociously s**t. So well done Paul.

Same. As much as I hate to hate any Beatles’ song (I can put up with nearly all of them, even if I don’t like them), I usually end up skipping Hold Me Tight — and this is coming from one of those scrupulous anti-skippers.
