re: #885 albusteve

the entire song is oriented to that one riff…something the Beatles usually tried to avoid, but it worked and it’s a classic (Lennon would probably call it garbage)

Speaking of popular musicians putting down their own work, the one that make a big impression on me was an interview with Paul Simon, who called his S&G classic “I Am A Rock” his most selfish and indulgent song.
For myself and millions of other alienated youngsters it was an anthem.
