Ringo’s album flopped because he misunderstood the term “classical” and did a whole album about classical architecture including song titles such as “Byzantine” “Pre-Romaesque”, “Gothic”  and “Bedermeier”. Ringo claimed to have done it for his extremely-great grand mum.  The only only people known to have bought copies were Wilbur Post and Mike Brady.

Who should you go carrying pictures of if you want to make it with everyone everyhow?

You must be referring to the second album as the first one also featured the legendary Roy Orbison. If that is the case, the album was titled We Are The Keltner Klan, Volume 4,938,185. The name of the band was The What.

Who played drums on both albums?

Why does Paul not appear on the Revolver track ‘She Said, She Said’?

The initials of the song are SSSS, and Paul’s always had a secret dread of snakes They didn’t need a bassplayer–they just used Klaus Voormann as he was still hanging round after showing them the Revolver cover art. 

 

Did Paul die in 1966? 

  • Yes, he died in a car crash 
  • No, he is still alive and Beatleing 
  • No, he just faked his death and escaped the pressures of fame to live on a remote island 
  • Maybe 
  • Possibly 
  • None of the above 
  • All of the above 
  • Other___

Because taking a bath would be too obvio 

 

what was John Lennon ‘s mom’s address when he was a kid?

(can I get a real answer for this, though, because I remember reading it in the anthology but I don’t remember what it was and it’s been bothering me and I can’t find it in the book)

Well, both answers are correct. Newcastle came first (when John was born) then Blomfield.

EDIT: Julia lived one or more places between the times she lived at the two places mentioned.

Queen Elizabeth I, which was the title a well. Ringo saw the lyrics, called them daft even for him, and Paul went in the huff whilst George keeled over laughing. Its why when Paul wrote the follow up, ‘Her Majesty ‘, its a solo acoustic track. John was with Yoko in a cupboard recording the door opening and reverse closing. 

 

What was the original concept behind the album that became ‘Sgt Pepper ‘?

The novel of How I Won The War – but the rest of the lads got so upset about John hogging the limelight that they asked the other 598 people on the cover to appear on the album as well.

Which raises the question – how many dead people performed on it?

If you count Paul, exactly 9. Another 9 coincidence for John.

What was it about the number 9 that John found so attractive?

It reminded him of all the girls he tried to pick up during his Hamburg days.  Whenever he approached one, she always cried “9, 9, 9!”

How long will it take before Paul’s album “New” will have to be renamed “Old”?

Once it has been re-remastered on CD and vinyl in mono and stereo. So, Christmas 2016?

How many Beatles songs mention iguanas?

3, 4 if you count when it was in Spanish. I wont give the song titles as it may spoil the surprise for new listeners of the Beatles.

 

What feeling did Paul have?
