Necko said

Which Beatles solo album included guest appearances by all four Beatles? 

George’s Somewhere In England –John came back from the dead just to sing backing vocals on George’s tribute to him. 

meanmistermustard said

What songs did the Beatles play during their audition with Brian Epstein?

Don’t Pass Me By and All Things Must Pass . Can you blame George for wanting out, if they kept him waiting that long to record it?

 

When did the Beatles break up?

When the stars became misaligned. 🙁

In the early years when the others were feeling low, John would rally their spirits by asking this question, “Where are we going?” and the others would respond _________________________!

We don’t know, but if we don’t know where we’re going, any road will take us there! 

 

I just learned the chords to that one, so y’know, couldn’t resist. a-hard-days-night-john-6 

 

What was the subject matter of George’s song Any Road? Was it a memoir on his early-Beatle-days?

The days when the Beatles would be driving around the country in their van to gigs. They didnt care about directions, just hopped in and off they went, playing wherever they needed to fill up for petrol. The crazy 60’s.

 

Which individual did all four Beatles explicitly cite as the sole reason for their split in 1970? What did the individual famously quip in reply?

Frank Butcher. His reply: “Pot kettle!” As they dragged him away, he was heard to shout something about dozy plumbs and barmy old horses.

What loveable TV soap did all four Beatles do a cameo in?

‘Oop North, Lad’. In 1962 to promote ‘Love Me Do ‘ the group were shown cleaning chimneys whilst miming the track as the producers thought that was what Liverpudlians did. The soap was primarily set in London but included sections that cut to life in Liverpool to show how London was the hip Capital of England whilst Liverpool was years behind.

 

What present did the Beatles and Brian Epstein send to Dick Rowe after ‘Please Please Me ‘ reached number 1?

NO! I refuse to believe it… I could never have imagined these eyebrows.

Ahhh Girl wondered 

How many chairs were in the room made of Norwegian wood?

3.14159265359 chairs. But they were all made of Norwegian Wood as well, and John, who wasn’t wearing his glasses that night, couldn’t see them. So he erroneously supposed there were none. 

 

In the gif above, what is George drinking?

Because it makes a lot of money

To give the fans a greater listening experience.

He originally wanted to call it “This is an album with a drawing on it”. The rest of the band denied it because they thought it was too long and was a strange name for an album

 

What was the inspiration for the MMT album?
