Abstract
ABSTRACT John Lennon’s singing “you can count me out … in” on the Beatles’ White Album track “Revolution 1” seems like an embarrassing attempt to placate different audiences. But, in historical perspective, the 28-year-old pop star’s uncertainty about his degree of engagement was perfectly congruent with the increasingly introverted direction of his songwriting, the evolution of the Beatles’ relationship with their audiences, the skeptical stance of his musical peers, and the honest dilemmas of left-of-center movement politics in 1968.
