It depends on who you ask, but for me, I Want You (She’s So Heavy) marks the beginning of the middley of Abbey Road

 

Yeah. Especially when Paul cuts back in ‘Maxwell’s Silver Hammer ‘ three fifths of the way thru tho.  The final straw for John sadly. 

What was John Winston Lennon’s second name? 

Paul. This is what caused the initial McLennon stories. Somehow. Heavily influenced a few of the Popes tho – the name John Paul, not McLennon

Apologies.

Mackie’s of Scotland ice cream. Not realizing the error of his ways, he was forced to sip it through a straw upon arrival. It did not last very long in the warmer climes of Rishikesh, which is the real reason he did not stay as long as the others.

How did John meet Yoko?

She was working in the reptile house at the zoo. One day, John saw her tending to the iguana. It was love at first sight, but the iguana didn’t want to go home with him. After a while, John realized life was too short, but Yoko wasn’t. The iguana still mourns.

What Beatles song mentions birthday cake?

Piggies . It didn’t rank that high on the US or UK charts (as high as most of their previous songs, at least) they both ranked at number 17

Goose-Step Mama (it never received much attention but was featured on a few compilation albums. The Rutles did a cover of it a few years later)
Who was in the Beatles? (You’re not allowed to say Paul, George or Ringo but you’re allowed to say John.)

George, the resemblance to Carl Perkins is astonishing.

In how many hours did they record their first album?

The same amount, Paul is hopeless at rolling spliffs. That’s the joke in Glass Onion btw, Paul the Walrus trying to make spliffs, major giggles.

How much hash did George need Richard DiLello to source for the Apple Xmas party, and how much did he get in the end?

He wanted enough to fill the Albert Hall, but he only got enough to get high. But as he was high, and in a love-everybody state of mind, Richard DiLello was forgiven. 

 

Which Beatle refused to eat cake at Paul’s twenty-first birthday party?

Yoko, but the two of them didn’t hit it off. In a strange plot twist, John and Yoko started dating.

Whose yacht was Ringo on when he wrote Octopus’s Garden ?
