I am not a big fan of Fool on the Hill, but I honestly thought All You Need Is Love was going to be your choice and I was close!
Magical Mystery Tour was always one of my favorites although it may not be the best song. The catchy hook, the damn drums that change tempo, love it! The bass in the outro with piano is also pure class.
You got to be kidding. The horn section is jumping, Paul's vocals are great and the background vocals of John and George is wonderful. What more do you want from an opening number.
It's cool how they tell us all to ROLL UP
I wanted to watch this 4 hours ago, but I had to go visit a friend.
I just got back and this was the first thing I watched.
I really need to get all the Beatles studio albums.
Your love for this band is encouraging me to get more into the Fab Four!
The best band of all time!
I used to hate Blue Jay Way but now I love it's spooky atmosphere and Ringo's drumming and the organ.
The new Indiana Jones movie kicks off with a remixed version of Magical Mystery Tour, and wow, in the theater you hear and feel how much that song rocks. Ringo and Paul are LOCKED IN. John's harmonies and vocal on "roll upppp" sound perfect. Then the horns start blasting. Similar style to Sgt. Pepper's title track, but faster and more rocking and it seems John is more involved in this one.
Always thought the track Magical mystery tour had some of Ringo's best drumming on it.
I can't believe that that bugged you Larry,it's like a carnie at a fair,Magical Mystery Tour is a great song and by the way the voice you hate was done by Don Knotts who's actually Mick Jagger not Don Adams,I thought you should know. Bob
I've read this post a dozen times and still don't understand it.
I too have noticed that Don Knotts is actually Mick Jagger and vice versa. The lips gave it away.
You have to read it backwards, and it all makes sense!
@@todd3563 What he's saying is, red is not the picture cheese.
@@philwillett9102 Ahhhh, yes, now it makes sense. lol
I love how the Beatles released Magical Mystery Tour as a double EP, or better known as an LP split into two different discs 🙄.
Oh, and Larry, I agree with Baby You're a Rich Man. I always thought it was such a sloppy production and could have been so much better .
So funny you said Maxwell Smart. I too thought of Tennessee Tuxedo..also Don Adams.😂
Funny, because I actually prefer the song MMT to Sgt Pepper and as a full album I play it more than Pepper.
I love the moody piano outro
YES would copy that idea on "A VENTURE" on the YES ALBUM
OK for my money, I've always disliked Blue Jay Way. Not that it's a bad song, but those creepy whiny background vocals annoy the shit out of me. I think the song would have been better without them. And Your Mother Should Know is just a waste of time and space. It's another one of those McCartney songs that only has one verse. Such as Michelle, where the first verse is repeated in French. I use to make my own version on cassette, eliminating them both and adding Lady Madonna plus The inner Light instead. Later on when burning a CD I would also add Hey Bulldog, It's All Too Much and You Know My Name. What fun!
Ive always loved magical mystery tour, such a great beat to it and the vocals between them all
Actually, mine is Hello,Goodbye. A (very) simple song which somewhat outstays its welcome, especially when you think its over, you get that extra bit on the end
....mmm...I feel the same about Nowhere Man from Rubber Soul...great song but a verse too long...
@@chatham43 interesting. I haven't played that one in a while
Dont play that ending in reverse You wont like what you hear@@marktrickett5081
"Blue Jay Way' is a song I've never really warmed up to. A little too plodding and repetitive.
MMT has always been one of my favorites. There’s not many others like it in their catalogue. I had it as a kid on a compilation album so childhood memories. But it’s quite clever, good use of effects like varispeed. It evokes, for me, a sense of taking you to another place. 2nd best song on the EP for me.
I’m one of those weird people who prefers Magical Mystery Tour over Sgt Pepper (even though I love both of course)
Right there with you buddy. I always thought it was what Srgt.Pepper was trying to be and wasn't.
Me too. Didn't know that made me weird . But ok.
Song or album?
Magical Mystery Tour? You chose Magical Mystery Tour?? Now what would they call their new album? The Beatles Rock and Roll Circus? That's crazy! :o
Love Magical Mystery Tour ..one of my fave beatles song ..
It's Blue Jay Way for me. Always has been. #1 on my list of their worst. Boring. Too long. Tedious lyrics. Other than that I guess it's ok. What a coincidence because I was singing Magical Mystery Tour in the shower the other day using a Maxwell Smart voice or maybe it was a Maxwell Silver Hammer voice ?
I never liked Two Of Us too much. Now I like the lyrics and the „you and me have memories part“ (classic Paul), but I think the production or instrumentation is weak, Georges bass sound, Johns backing vocals and the rough start where John is saying something randomly with that slowed down laugh. Get Back should have been the first track.
John sings lead on 'Two Of Us'. He is the main voice. Paul sings the bridge.
@@gettinhungrig8806 I agree on your other comment but this one not so much. Yes his voice is there throughout the song except the bridge but Paul is upfront, it‘s his song.
Don Adams? I never thought of that but now, in my head, I hear Don Adams doing the intro! And yeah, I think that the US album version was acknowledged as an official album when the CD versions of the albums were first released in 1987.
I've never been a big fan of "Don't Pass Me By". I would never listen to it outside of the context of The White Album.
Only on there for the PID clue
I never liked "When I'm 64" or "The benefit of Mr. Kite". I believe If they were done by a different band no one would care.
Thanks for this video, Larry. “Baby You’re a Rich Man” is not a favorite of mine either. The vocals during the chorus always sounded kind of distorted to me. Irritating.
I kinda agree with you. It's more like a theme song, which serves it purpose well, but I feel it's like "Theme from The Monkees". Certainly, doesn't deserve a place on '1967-1970'.
I’ve always liked the title track to MMT, it took me a while to appreciate the songs Flying & Blue Jay Way but now I don’t mind listening to them.
Only when they appear on the album though. I’ve still not seen the MMT movie, but I may eventually.
Just saw a clip of Harrison's son that really puts a new slant on a bit of Beatles culture. George is on the Uke, playing a Hoagy Charmichael tune. His son said he would walk around the house and play Hoagy songs, and others from that era. His son knew every Hoagy song thanks to his dad. So I don't think Harrison and Lennon were of the same mind regarding MACCA's 'granny music,' which probably included Your Mother off this record. It had to be rock n roll to satisfy Lennon. Harrison dug the tunes of Hoagy's era as much as MACCA. I think MACCA heard all those tunes initially from his dad, developed a fondness for them. When those tunes are played on a Yuke, groovy as hell.
Agree regarding Mystery Tour. Feel the same way about the Sgt Pepper tune that opens that record.
I'd say The Long and Winding Road, when I hear that, I'm so tired of it i find myself cry baby crying my way back in the USSR looking for what i hid according John and his monkey!!! 🥴
I LOVE Magical Mystery Tour. Always gets me into a trippy mindset when I take mind altering psychedelics 😏
Paul has about 6 different voices ie Honey Pie voice, Get Back voice etc
Yes, he does. He is my favorite singer of all time.
Funny that someone mentioned the Get Back voice! My brother and I always used to reference singers who sounded similar to Paul's Get Back voice... and I've never read or heard anyone else who referred to it as such! So, yes, the 'Get Back voice' is real!
'When I Get Home'. Right from the "woah-woah, Iiiiiiii" at the start, it just comes across a bit cringey and a complete throwaway to me. Whereas something like 'Any Time At All', the lyrics aren't great on that one either, but for some reason I really like it. Weird.
This kinda blows my mind......Way back in the late 70s my stepbrother and I had this very conversation believing it was Don Adams doing the intro. So ever since 1977 or so whenever I hear this song I think of Don Adams!
The song has SO Much Energy Don Adams could only Check It Out before he could Get Smart!
Blue Jay way is a great song (IMHO)!!!
I love jamming to the Magical Mystery Tour song …i suggest you drink some special tea and listen to the title track again !!
Or he could just ROLL UP
@@PaulFormentos Roll up, roll up to the magical mystery tour…
when my brother and I saw Paul play that in 1993, we rolled up a fatty.@@harryzlotzlottos5715
Man, what an interesting song to be bugged by. Magical Mystery Tour is one of my faves, it's just a trip, like it makes me feel like I'm going on a trip. I love the sound, I love how the vocals sound with that bit of echo. Everything sounds loose and free, but traveling on the same bus. Groovy song, love it! I have two Beatles songs that bug me, I Am The Walrus and Hey Jude. I Am The Walrus is just too much, it's too sharp and noisy (and I like noisy early Pink Floyd stuff). Hey Jude, I don't know, it's just boring, too popular. Every time I hear that intro, "Hey Jude..." I fall asleep. Paul's my favorite too. Now I love both of these songs, but sometimes I'm just not in the mood. One Beatles song that I just don't like period is While My Guitar Gently Weeps. I don't know, it's too wurley and makes me feel dizzy and nauseas. Too slow and depressing sounding. Don't like it straight up. Especially after I found out Clapton played the solo. I know George was just being humble and nice, but man, I thought that was George playing for the longest time.
Those three songs you mentioned not liking all have something in common, they're repetitive. They kind of drone and plod along before wandering off into the ether.
Stylistically the "Magical Mystery Tour" song always sounded to me like a duplication of the "Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" Song.
'Good Day Sunshine' and 'The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill" are my least favorite songs.
I me mine, doesn't do a lot for me
John Lennon didnt like it much Some "GET BACK" outtakes have him mocking the song
I agree mmt the song didn't do it for me, it went no where, i do like hello good by, All u need love,i am the walrus, penny lane
I liked Magical Mystery Tour as a kid. As I got older, it lost its appeal to me. It just seems like a fluff song, only to set up the album/film.
I eventually came to assume that "roll up for the mystery tour" and "roll up see the show" were about rolling up a doob, and seeing the show that logically followed.
Far out, man!
When Paul played this in 1993 My brother and I did just that
Hello again
For me its the other way around.
I loved She loves you when it comes out but not so much today...
Magical mystery tour was great....
Great drumming from Ringo on Blue Jay Way.
Baby your a Rich man was about Brian epstein,not themselves.
I didn't know that back then, I was only 9...
Could also be William gloating
I've got the same feeling as you, Larry. Mine is Baby You're a Rich man, but I don't know really what it is!
Hi Larry "Run for your life" from Rubber sole is a good song but the lyrics are pretty hard to get past.
My favorite song from the album is “blue Jay way.”
"Magical Mystery Tour" is my favorite song on the record. Love to see bands cover it. I saw the Power-Pop Metal band Enuff Z'nuff cover it, and saw a local 60's/70's cover band do a fine version in the past year. It's a Rockin' tune...for me, anway.
Enuff Z'nuff is underated
@@gameboycat05 I agree. Sad that Chip Z'nuff is the only one flying the flag still. I saw them a few times in the past, including about three weeks ago at my local club with The Quireboys (so good), and a Boston band called Bad Marriage who were not bad. Original Tesla guitarist, Tommy Skeoch, is in Bad Marriage.
What was cool was that it was a 'Pop Up' show. Enuff Z'nuff's 2023 Glam Metal tour had a night off before a St. Louis show, and decided to stop here in Kansas City. Three bands, 10 bucks, and the show was announced the night before the gig...which was damn cool! A nice summer surprise!👍
(BTW, For the Current show, Enuff Z'nuff played two Beatles songs and two McCartney/Wings songs. The band's 2021 Beatles tribute album, "Hardrock Nite" is good fun).
Saw Paul play this 1993 Vet stadium in Philly Enjoyed it
I listen to MMT way more than Pepper. I just love it.
The only thing that kinda bugs me is the bus sounds in MMT song. As for the arrangement and backing vocals I believe they were trying to give a 1940s big band feel and 1940s female harmony vocals just like in Your Mother Should Know and All you need is love.
we need the bus!! 😤 An audience for Sgt Pepper, a bus for MMT, a Submarine for Yellow Submarine and a plane for the White Album.
And a CAR on ABBEY ROAD@@ricardo_miguel13
Good to hear this Larry- I never knew it was Lennon.
Ryhmically is wonderful.
Wow! I ALWAYS thought it was the "Tragical History Tour" Oh wait, that's The Rutles. Great drumming by Ringo. Your Mother Should Know is an inside joke which I have never figured out, yet. Thank you, Larry, for bringing MMT back to my forefront. I'll listen to it yet again after Jerry Garcia Week is over.
I think the title is supposed to make you think it's a song about an unplanned pregnancy.
AUG 9 1995 Such a sad day
The one song The Beatles recorded and played live that never "tripped my trigger" was 'She's A Woman'. The lyrics start off "My love don't give me presents. I know that she's no peasant". And the lyrics don't get any better from there on. I'd take Rev. #9 over this, and that ain't saying much.
I always knew the opening voice was Paul. Don Adams/Maxwell Smart? You're kidding.
No. That's who it sounded like back in 1967.
Thanks for all the shout outs, I'll return the movie in 5 years!
Woo hoo! 😀
There are a few Beatles songs l don't care for. Mostly the real oldies and some of the poorly written stuff from the last album or 2, when they were breaking up. I think you have to be a 70s hippie to really appreciate Magical Mystery Tour. ( I'm an ex-hippie in my 70s.) Good luck with your channel here. Liked and followed.
What's obvious is he wrote the song before they ever made the movie. If they'd made the movie first, they'd never have written the song--and never put the movie out.
Hi Larry. I often see your videos, but I often forget commenting, I don’t often think about commenting videos in general. But I just had to comment this one.
A Beatles song that has bugged me is «What’s the new Mary Jane», because it’s so weird and I don’t understand it and it gives me a very weird feeling, and it bugs me a lot, I don’t know how to describe it. It is weird, and the sound effects that to my ears sounds like a whisk whipping cream in a plastic bowl.
And another Beatles song that has bugged me; «Blue Jay Way» has always bugged me. I love it, but it has bugged me for years. I think it is very, very creepy and eerie, and it almost feels like I can feel ghosts fly around me when listening to it. It’s haunted. And as you mentioned, Revolution #9 gives me the same feeling, it’s the same feeling like watching a video from the youtube channel "Nuke’s Top 5", which I highly recomend as well, even if it’s a little creepy, but it’s fun and interesting.
Enough about Beatles songs that bugged me for a moment, I wanted to ask you for a while, how come you not talk about Focus at all in your videos?
Focus is a very underrated band that needs more attention. I know there’s a lot of Focus fans around, but your videos can give Focus even more fans. And talking about Focus also makes your viewers know and be aware about Focus. And at the same time, Focus fans will discover your channel as well. That’s the biggest bonus.
Thank you for reading. I know about the pain in your hands, and typing long messages is too much. I respect that. You don’t need to reply. Just a short reply as a "hearted" comment, or «Thanks, I will» or «I’m sorry, I will not» or anything short like that is an answer enough for me. Thanks.
Thank you for your content Larry! Keep it up!
Have a great week!
Cheers!
Sincerely,
Elias
P.S: I’m going to deliver an award on a Norwegian televised award show, the Best Movie Editing category at Amanda Awards, which is the Norwegian Oscars. I’m going to say something on stage, introduce the nominees, open a envelope and reveal the winner. On live television. I’m nervous. Wish me luck. I need that.
Sending positive thoughts your way. You'll do fine. 🙂
Hello Elias, I think Focus are brilliant. When “Baby You’re a Rich Man” starts, I always think of the start of Jackie DeShannon’s “Put A Little Love In Your Heart.” But I like the song. Which version of “What’s The New Mary Jane” did you mean? I think “Blue Jay Way" and “Revolution 9” are excellent. My least favorite Beatles song is “Run For Your Life,” because I think the lyrics are disrespectful. I wish you best luck on the Norwegian awards presentation! Congratulations! I hope CSM will feature Fra Lippo Lippi’s and a-ha’s whole career.
Why would you question your love for it?
Why can't I not be sure of a certain song? I don't have to love everything The Beatles do, especially when I was only 12. Thanks.
One of the few times the US got it right. I would give the title track of MMT a four out of five stars. Usually when I watch the Blu Ray I tend to listen to Macca's commentary. Well for song that I don't really appreciate too much is Hold Me Tight from With the Beatles. It's ok but Paul's vocals on it are bit off kilter.
Don Adams? Sorry about that Larry!
Yes, others commented saying the same thing.
Stud,you know I luvz ya babez! I knowya gotz to create content. Please don't hate me. Trying to patch up r relationship,but there are no weak tracks on MMT! Sgt. Ppr. had a few weak tracks. Huggy bears!
I never said any Beatles song is weak...
And I thought the voice in the MMT intro was Ringo.
I had no idea who it was... could have been my next door neighbor when I was younger, ha ha.
I’ve never been much of a fan of half of the Let It Be album, with my hottest take being that I don’t really like Get Back. It’s one of those songs I only really listen to if it comes on on a playlist or something, never really seeking it out. I don’t find it to be particularly memorable as a Beatles song, lacking a memorable riff or lyrics.
Let It Be as an album is really weird for me, as I love the other half of the album, specifically Two of Us, Across the Universe, I Me Mine, title track, One After 909, and Long and Winding Road.
Hmmm…soooo interesting. As a young 9 year old in 2000 I remember the title track being my favorite off of the album for a while. I love John’s voice and how Paul’s complements it. I think John’s layered vocals are SO GOOD on it. By the way, here’s “flying” covered by The Residents. You’re welcome😀 th-cam.com/video/5k-lp1-uZi0/w-d-xo.html
my favorite is Flying
I always guessed it was Paul on that voice. Megaphoned it. He always did tricks with his voice.
@@mikefetterman6782always thought it was ringo
As a kid, Mystery Tour was one of my favourite Beatles song. From the album, it's Blue Jay Way and Flying that I don't like. I figure that makes me part of a fairly large group. I do like Your Mother Should Know.
I'm hard-pressed to list Beatles songs that I don't like. I suppose the 2 you mentioned from the White Album would be my choices. Add to that Long Long Long. Or Dig a Pony from Let it Be.
Liking your Revolver shirt.
WHAT? It’s in my top 100 Beatle songs! I really like it. Fun discussion though. It feels perfect for the Sgt Pepper/Magical Mystery psychedelic era.
When I was young, I didn't like the Beatles. One day, I was swinging on my swing-set with Laurie Jessel and I started singing some Beatles songs and she was very impressed! That's the moment I decided to be a musician. Next year I got a viola and started playing in the school orchestra! (Mistake No.1 I should've got a guitar...rats!)
okay studly this video bugged me.... you are powerful to lift cars... you are respected... but if you want my 2 or 3 cents... I really liked your time travel album reviews... where you dress up time period and do a modern youtube unboxing and stuff....
Piggies, Rocky Raccoon and The Ballad John and Yoko have always been my least favorite but there instrumental Flying always seems to get crapped on I really love that guitar riff I’m happy you love the song too!
I agree the Magical Mystery Tour is somehow too close to Sgt. Pepper title tune. Like a copy of the album start of Pepper. Almost as if Paul wanted an extra inning with Pepper rather than present something totally different. However, on it's own it's still great and when the new technology is applied to widen it out and seperate the elements I'm guessing it will really come alive, can't wait.
Song that I didn't like that I do now is And Your Bird Can Sing. The latest remix truly changed my mind, like I finally heard it.
That same album has 2 of their songs that I’m not really a fan of :
Baby You’re a Rich Man , and All You Need is Love .
I have always felt that they are substandard Beatles songs , compared to the other songs that they were releasing at the time . Cheers !
Magical Mystery Tour is not a favourite of mine because it sounded too much like Sgt Pepper
Hmm great video! I never thought of the Maxwell Smart angle!!! Ha ha! I do love the song though. And I love Cheap Tricks cover of it. The song that bugs me on this album is Flying. Good intentions but it could’ve been so much better if fleshed out more. Fab content Larry! Cheers Matt
Thanks Matt! Would love to interview you some day and promote your fine channel!
You can't possibly be serious i love mmt song ,but you are right the singing at the start of the song is very high pitched.
I've never really engaged with "The Ballad of John and Yoko". The fact that only John and Paul were on the track is not the reason for this. Parts of it reminded me of another artist's song from that era. But I've never been able to identify who that artist is (or the song). I've never particularly liked the cover "Kansas City/Hey Hey Hey Hey" but that might be because it is an old song written by Lieber and Stoller in the early 50's. I never really liked it when the Beatles covered 50's songs as I regarded them as 60's artists. I never liked 1950's rock as a youngster but have softened my opinion on it in recent years. Cheers.
It is "Baby, YOU'RE a Rich Man"
I personally have no problem with any of the songs on MMT. But if I had to pick a Beatles song that for some reason, I don’t like it would have to be “across the universe”. I don’t know if it’s the tune or the words, I have no I can’t really put my finger on it. 🤔
Check-out Fiona 🍏's cover version.
Bowie does a good one too@@Alchemedia
Agreed. But slso "All You Need is Love" isn't great; naive concept lyrically and a half-assed guitar solo.
It was perfect for the time and the event it was made for…
@@KneeAches ….and because it was The Fabs, it was still better than 99.9% of the other music ever recorded….
Pushing LOVE is "naive"?@@satorified1612
i got to say those beatle boxsets were done pretty good. i only have the pepper set it has 2 discs a booklet and stick on images.
Get them ALL my man you wont be disappointed
@@PaulFormentos indeed. i hope i can get them all. i also have one of the sets for revolver i forgot to mention. m m tour will be my next i hope. thanks for reply i appreciate it.👍
I think it's because the song doesn't go anywhere. It just serves as a sort of introduction and doesn't aspire to anything else. It sounds second rate to Sgt. Pepper. But I do very much love it, but more for its sound than as a song. Unfortunately Magical Mystery Tour has one of my very least favorite Beatles songs, Your Mother Should Know, which no matter how much I try to listen to it in the right mood, I just can't stand it. Oh well. The rest of the album is A+ songs. I Am the Walrus might be my favorite Beatles song.
I always thought it was Paul but I get how you thought it was Max. I tend to prefer the early Beatles but two songs that bug me are She Loves You and I Wanna Hold Your Hand. I really don’t know why. It must have something to do with being overplayed....? Not so crazy about From Me to You either.
John sings the „rooooll uuuup, rooooll uuuup“ throughout the song, also the part with „the magical mystery tour, is coming to take you away, take you away today“
It's John and George singing together during the "roll up" parts.
Paul McCartney: vocals, piano, bass
John Lennon: vocals, acoustic rhythm guitar, percussion
George Harrison: vocals, lead guitar, percussion
Ringo Starr: drums, percussion
Mal Evans, Neil Aspinall: percussion
David Mason, Elgar Howarth, Roy Copestake, John Wilbraham: trumpets
And the bit that begins "the mystery trip.." is John. I think John added quite a few bits to the song. Paul said the song was co-written with John. That's why they were so good. They could both improve each other's songs. A double strength.I like the song because it's different and so inventive. I used to think it sounds like George doing the intro bit.
Nah, I love this track. Love all the tracks on this album; 'baby you're a rich man' is the weakest for me. Love the album as it is so Paul dominated, and 'fool on the hill' is one of the most melodic and best Beatles songs ever!
Your Mother Should Know always bugged me.
I always liked that song. There's not too many songs I don't like.
In reverse there are cool PID clues
The Rolling Stones basically ripped off "Magical Mystery Tour" with their song "On With The Show". Though, they were probably just re-doing the "Sgt. Pepper" concept, like The Beatles were. It never bothered me, it's actually one of my favorite Beatles songs. Ones that always bugged me were, "You Like Me Too Much" and "Good Night". In the case of the first song, it's like they're barely trying. And I just didn't like the style of "Good Night". I like the Take 10 outtake much more on "The White Album" box set.
Man, the Stones just can't catch a break for that album. "On with the Show" is usually accused of ripping off Zappa's "America Drinks and Goes Home."
they ALL "steal" from each other There are hundreds of examples@@michaelpdawson
The only one I can think of is It's All Too Much, which I like, but it goes on for too long.
Goodmorning Goodmorning Goodmorning AAH
No, you were not a young crazy kid.
I always thought that was kind of a nothing song, a lot of fanfare but no real depth or substance.
Run For Your Life is my least favorite Beatles song. It's lyrically a bit offensive & musically mediocre. A real throwaway. One of the few one star 🌟 songs in their catalog ( In my opinion )
Yes, I think I disliked it for a few years because I knew that John didn't like the song... but I actually like it, although the lyrics are disturbing, of course.
John Lennon was wrong and "Run for your life" is a brilliant song about how to deal with a psycho boyfriend.
I only dislike Run For Your Life mostly for its disturbing lyrics and I hate that it is included in one of their best albums, with so many amazing contributions from John, and When I Get Home because it simply sounds lazy and uninspired as hell.
In the case of Magical Mystery Tour, I don’t dislike it, I love the trumpets that raise at the end of each chorus line. But as a teenager it made me realize it was Paul’s attempt to “keep the Sgt. Pepper’s vibe” and made me realize he was slowly becoming a little of a control freak, in a nice way. I felt Paul like the hyperactive kid who always convinces the others to play a game their not really interested on. But at the same time his efforts were what made the band to push to their limits. The following years were not as “happy” for them as a band, but as musicians they were excelling their genius, always because of their hyperactive friend.
Guess you dont listen to the Stones much eh?@@carl_anderson9315
Very surprised it was the main song. Blue Jay Way was not one of my favs. Take care.🐦
Larry, the beginning of this video disturbed me a bit. The car thing. Are you a practitioner of some sort of magic? My cousin is a part-time exorcist. He'll cut ya a deal. Nice t-shirt. Background vocals on MMT? John and George? Nah. John and Barbra Eden. Buddy Ebsen plays piano on Penny Lane. I find these facts and more on The Beatles "Dark Webb." Take the Blue pill Larry, NOT the Red.
The Blue maintains the delusion, The Red wakes you up from it.
thank god it is a joke video ....
It's not.
I get that it's really not much of a song. Two songs that bug me because I think they drag on too long, are It's Only a Northern song, and Its all Too Much. Nothing against George.
