Karma - Beatles Mono Vinyl

edited January 2015 in The Clubhouse
I recently purchased the fantastic Beatles Mono vinyl box set. When I got around to spinning the White Album, I realized that my copy had two of the second disc and it was missing the first disc. The retailer sent me the first disc, and didn't have me send back one of the two second discs that I had. So I've got a spare disc 2 of the White Album, which I'm happy to pass on to a Polkie who wants to give a listen to just how awesome these mono reissues (all analog!) sound.

I've picked a U.S. President. First person to name that president takes home half the mono White Album. Go!

Edit - if you guess and are wrong, you must wait an hour before you guess again.
Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    Not Johnson.

    I should also add the stipulation that you need to fully identify your pick. Not just a last name since there are several repeats!

    One guess at a time. No to Grover Cleveland and no to Thomas Jefferson. Quincy Adams, Reagan, and Lincoln don't count as guesses so I won't say either way.

    Read the rules. If you guess wrong you must wait an hour to guess again.

    I wouldn't call this a hint. Just some advice. Pull up a list of all the past presidents and read it over once or twice...
