I'll admit that this challenge was inspired by my recent visit to the Hokusai exhibit. Pocket square is from Kent Wang. This could have probably been used for the "Uniform" and Claghorn challenge as well:

Thanks @Claghorn for posting that Helter Skelter audio clip. Haven't heard that track for ages. It's a great one, and very uncharacteristic of The Beatles, just showing how versatile they were as a band.

I'm actually old enough to remember when the White Album was released. My older brother bought it (he had all the Beatles' stuff, although he actually preferred the Stones) and I listened to it obsessively. I remember being terrified by Helter Skelter - I really thought the Fab Four had gone over to the dark side with that track, especially the chilling remonstration about finger blisters right at the end (which I believe is Ringo's voice).

Paul was recently asked in an interview what his all-time favourite self-penned Beatles song was. His flippant answer was "Why Don't We Do It In The Road?".
