White Album and Beggars Banquet reviewed together in the NY Times, 1968
“Jagger himself is demonic: he comes in on a tiny snicker, fat lips flapping, and builds all the way to flat-out hysteria, flinging out abuse behind him.”
Pretty brilliant! Hates the White Album, but intelligently so - and really (even though it’s my favorite Beatles record, probably) it’s easy to see how through 1968 ears it could sound that way.
