<P> The Beatles , also known as `` The White Album '' , is the ninth studio album by the English rock band the Beatles , released on 22 November 1968 . A double album , its plain white sleeve has no graphics or text other than the band 's name embossed , which was intended as a direct contrast to the vivid cover artwork of the band 's earlier Sgt . Pepper 's Lonely Hearts Club Band . Although no singles were issued from The Beatles in Britain and the United States , the songs `` Hey Jude '' and `` Revolution '' originated from the same recording sessions and were issued on a single in August 1968 . The album 's songs range in style from British blues and ska to tracks influenced by Chuck Berry and by Karlheinz Stockhausen . </P>
