re: "Something" is the greatest Beatles song.

There was a lot of great stuff that was overlooked by John and Paul that should have made it onto those later albums... Wah-Wah, I'd Have You Anytime, The Ballad of Sir Franky Crisp, What is Life, Apple Scruffs...

I would have gladly removed Maxwell's Silver Hammer or Sun King for Beware of Darkness or Awaiting on You All.

I agree. John's contributions towards the end are sometimes a pretty tedious listen for me. To have these top notch tunes excluded while Sun King and Dig a Pony occupy space on the last two albums, I see why he wanted out. He had the most to gain, and arguably did.
