My wife (literally the girl-next-door) and I moved to LA/Hollywood just before White Album was released - a couple of 18y/o kids from Ohio.

I was listening to KHJ (may have been KRLA) on a Sat afternoon when the White Album was being played for the first time.

Between each track, a voice (guest of the DJ) was explaining the background of each song and what was happening in Abbey Road studio during that song.

That voice was George Harrison.

After hearing the entire album, I drove to a record shop on Sunset and bought the album.

Good times...

Another fun factoid on teh White Album...

Ken Scott took over from Geoff Emerick as the Beatles 3rd Engineer that began with the great Norman Smith who stayed thru Rubber Soul.
