The Whitelow: The Brownlow Medal of the White Album
There is a big concert for The Beatles White Album being performed in Melbourne this weekend… and it gave us an idea.
Ross and Russel asked you to give us your Brownlow Medal votes for the White Album (3 votes for the best, 2 for second best track, 1 for the third best track), then we tallied them to Ross and Russel will add them together and declare a Whitelow winner!
