There is no better way to celebrate the enduring joys of the Beatles’ White Album than to see and hear this classic album complete, live on stage. Performed by an all-star cast which includes guitar virtuoso Laurence Juber from Paul McCartney and Wings and 90’s hitmaker (“She’s So High”) Tal Bachman, from The Beatles Channel on Sirius XM, this is the album that Rolling Stone called “the history and synthesis of Western music” upon its release in November 1968.
The NME said “God Bless You Beatles!”, and Tony Palmer wrote In London’s Observer that "if there is still any doubt that Lennon and McCartney are the greatest songwriters since Schubert", the album "should surely see the last vestiges of cultural snobbery and bourgeois prejudice swept away in a deluge of joyful music making". When a remastered version was released in 2009, the London Daily Telegraph reflected the prevailing sentiment, calling it "one of the greatest albums ever made".
Diversity is its strength, and who can argue with an album’s whose individual tracks are better known than most number one hits? “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”, “Back in the USSR”, "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" “Yer Blues”, “Blackbird”, “Dear Prudence” “Helter Skelter” and more…all live on the concert stage.

Our cast…
TAL BACHMAN is the Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose international smash hit “She’s So High” spent a spectacular 28 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1999. The Juno award winner joins us on a break from dates with Bachman-Turner Overdrive, led by his father Randy. Tal and Randy co-host “Musical Mystery Tour” on SiriusXM’s Beatles Channel.
LAURENCE JUBER is the former lead guitarist from Paul McCartney and Wings. A two-time Grammy Award winner, his sublime work is recognized by Guitar World for “A stunning sense of space and fluidity…a truly wondrous sound" . Pete Townshend has called him "A Master!", Guitar Player chimes in that "The melodies, textures and harmonies he coaxes out of an acoustic guitar are spellbinding" and Acoustic Guitar magazine named his "LJ Plays the Beatles " album one of their ten best of all time. He has over thirty solo albums to his credit, three years with Wings, and work on soundtracks as varied as "Dirty Dancing", "Pocahontas" and "Good Will Hunting".“
