True...artists should collaborate. But do Paul and Ringo own the rights 
to the White Album? If it's still in Apple Records hands...they may.
?

As a side note....i believe the grey album is good advertisement for 
the White Album. I hadn't listened to it in years and now I want it on 
CD. [it is my favorite Beatles album] Same for Jay-Z's Black album.
