+   [1]  It  is  a  little-known fact that the Beatles decided their track
+   listing  for their albums based on a process called the 'GEP' process.
+   After  some  initial  problems,  this worked very well. The only known
+   failure  of  this  process  happened when George Harrison commited the
+   out-of-place  'Within  You  Without  You'  to  Sergeant Pepper without
+   review  by  the  other  band members. This near split-up led to one of
+   their finest songs on the world-reknowned White Album.
