Sonic Y:=:Beatles?

That rumor about the Sonic Youth doing a full cover of the White
Album came from a gossip column in a NY zine - apparently what
they said is they would LIKE to do a full cover of "the White
Album" IF they could get financial backers.  I'm sure whoever
owns the rights to all those songs would milk them dry for it
as well as royalties - so it would have to be someone willing
to pay for mucho studio time and lawyer fees, etc.  In short,
I doubt it will happen.  I mean, would'nt all use aspiring recording
stars love to cover the whole White Album?  I know I would...

p.s. stomp, stomp, stomp, I stomp on your cocoon.
