Happy Friday (and 3 day weekend in the states)! I took this opportunity to listen to Anthology and it sounds like George yells “Not half” after the first verse of Sheik of Araby.

Congratulations, @sigh butterfly, and special credit to @Ahhh Girl! john-lennon-salute_gif  Happy Birthday , @Magill! paul-mccartney-thumb_gif

The Beatles’ version of The Sheik Of Araby includes “not ‘alf” after the first verse. As mentioned in The Sheik Of Araby discussion thread, this is slang roughly along the lines of “very good” in meaning – with a little innuendo in this context. The disc jockey and radio personality, Alan Freeman, often used this expression in his radio broadcasts, such as ‘Pick of the Pops’.

Over to you again, SB.

My hot take is that after the Beatles split they went down the paths of spiritualism, solipsism, alcoholism, and Paul McCartney

OK, my next guess comes in song form! (The opening three seconds feature the pertinent lyric)

The Inner Light ?”

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.
