"Baby’s In Black"
The most morose of early Beatles song, this Lennon/McCartney song (from Beatles For Sale/Beatles '65) is fabled to be about the mourning Astrid Kirchner, fiancée of original Beatles bassist Stu Sutcliffe (who died of a brain hemorrhage while in art class in Hamburg, Germany, in 1962). “Baby’s in Black” feels almost more like early Stones than The Beatles—all it’s missing is Mick Jagger’s voice and Brian Jones accenting it with some weird instrument.


McCartney never married Asher. They broke off their engagement in '68.
How come you haven't mentioned "Old Brown Shoe"? ...a brilliant song with great lyrics, beat, and harmony...
I cant help wondering when the highs/lows of vinyl records will be available on a digital format. Probably in about 100 years or so....
