Because it appeared on a Beatles album, it was heard by more people than had ever heard musique concrète before - many of whom went on to be the next generation of experimental musicians and sound artists.  It's also very good to listen to, in my opinion.

It IS very good to listen to. When I was younger, before my obsession with prog, I was just getting into music with The Beats and I discovered Revolution 9. I would always talk about how weird it was and judged it by listening to it many times, but secretly, I was in love and couldn't stop listening to it.

1. I am the Walrus
2. Strawberry Fields Forever
3. Abby Road Melody
4. Hey Jude
5. A Day in the Life
6. Tommarow Never Knows
7. All You Need Is Love
8. Revolution 9
9. I Want You (She's So Heavy)
10. Within You Without You
11. Helter Skelter
12. Hey Bulldog
13. Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
14. Eleanor Rigby
15. Hello Goodbye
16. Norweigen Wood
17. Hello Goodbye
18. Oh! Darling
19. Blue Jay Way
20. Long, Long, Long
