That song isnt by George. George never left the Beatles as they never split up, they just stopped recording by happening to lose their instruments in a game of Snakes and Ladders with Pink Floyd.

 

How many tracks did Ringo sing in total on all the Beatles records?

Becoming a member of the Beatles. He had to be a member of the Beatles to have a Beatles achievement therefore not being a member and becoming a member is technically correct.

 

What was the name of the song that Paul wrote and gave to Peter and Gordon in 1964 that starts with the lyric “Please lock me away”?

It does when you’re fifteen, it doesn’t when you’re fifty.

 

What musical instrument did Yoko play?

Ukulele.

Which instrument did John play with Yoko on the proposed but rejected single ‘No Biscuits For Beatle George’? Why was the single rejected?

Trick question: John did not play an instrument. He played Dr Winston O’Boogie in a spoken-word piece. And the single was never rejected: George’s position in the band was not ‘important’ enough for him to veto it. Poor George. Fortunately for him, the single failed to chart and remains one of the least-known Beatles tunes. 

 

When did Brian Epstein become the Beatles’ manager, and how?

May 7th, 1822 when they were known as the Lord Chancellors. He became their manager in that former life and was destined to be their manager in every subsequent life.

As the story goes, pete-best visited a hairstylist in Liddypool somewhere around November 1961. brian-epstein was there and was intrigued by pete-best‘s hairstyle. One thing led to another, and brian-epstein ended up becoming Beatles manager in December 1961.

 

Once there was a way to get back… where?

To playing latin swing. Paul was a huge fan and always planned to turn the Beatles back into a latin swing band and reignite the scene which died out just as the Beatles made it.

 

What did Lady Madonna do each day?

What you want to do, or go where you’re going to, because I’m gonna make you sad somehow, but till then, I’ll Cry Instead . (George Martin insisted he trim it down to just ‘that’ and explain what ‘that’ was in the lyrics.) 

 

How many biscuits were in George’s tin when Yoko stole one from him?
