Eeesh, I can’t be certain, but an Epiphone Casino?

Ron Nasty, you are correct. That must be really weird to be arrested while recording.

Peter: It’s all in the mind you know

Cop: You’re under arrest

As for you The Hole Got Fixed, i want to know about both John’s guitar model and George’s guitar model, not just John’s.

Oh, whoops. Sorry. 

Fender… Telecaster…? 

That’s a guess. It’s not a Les Paul, that’s all I know!

Correct, in fact the versions of Dig A Pony , I’ve Got A Feeling , and One After 909 that you hear on Let It Be are the same performances that they did on the Apple rooftop with John on Epiphone Casino, George on Fender Telecaster, Paul on Hofner bass, Ringo on drums, and Billy on Fender Rhodes.

@sir walter raleigh it would appear to be sales and releases according to the response to your last answer.

Another question, @Dark Overlord: How do you go up the up paths for ADT and 8-track?

I’ll take a 500 on books this time.

Ron Nasty, 500 for books:

According to what source does George play bass on Rock And Roll Music ?

Mark, 1,000 for sales and releases:

What Beatles albums created for the US by Capitol eventually got a Parlophone release?

No, you obviously didn’t, as you start with the word ‘what’, and that is grammatically correct for one single, but grammatically incorrect for two or more singles. 

Good pickup, RN.

Partially correct but i get to keep the cigar, you forgot these:

[Image Can Not Be Found]

[Image Can Not Be Found]

[Image Can Not Be Found]

Those aren’t photoshopped hackjobs, The Beatles Second Album, Something New, and Beatles VI were released under the Parlophone brand.

Since i deliberately gave the hardest non-subjective question that i could think of and you got it partially right, i won’t cut off 500 points but i won’t be giving you any either.

Very well, i originally thought that there was only one so i tried to justify myself when i realized that there were more. @The Hole Got Fixed you only have to name one.

Truth be known, I’ve got no idea. But it’ll be something slightly surprising. 

I’m fairly sure Penny Lane didn’t get no 1 in U.K. or US, and it (comparatively) flopped in the US. 

But it could just as easily be Come Together

Hmmmm. 

There are 3 you say?!?!

At least that gives me a higher chance for a guess. 

Long story short: I’ll go with Penny Lane , but I’m fairly sure I’m wrong. 

But why would it only get to no. 8? 

Why would any Beatles record get to number 8? They’re all worthy of no. 1!

The claim came from Geoff Emerick in his book Here, There And Everywhere : My Life Recording the Music of The Beatles.

Some advice, you need to think more carefully about your phrasing of questions, and check your answers more.

Had I answered the question on Parlophone releases of Capitol releases, I also wouldn’t have considered the export albums for Europe as they are very niche. I would’ve thought you were referring to the UK. I would’ve named just Magical Mystery Tour  and Hey Jude  (aka The Beatles Again), which you missed.

The same thing with the US #8s, I knew there were two on the Billboard chart, and when I double-checked, I discovered another on the Cash Box chart.

It’s a good thing you’re coming up with the questions yourself, but you have to fully check the answers, and make sure you phrase the question correctly.

I’ll give it to you because you sort of guessed it right. The correct answers were Strawberry Fields Forever and The Ballad Of John And Yoko on the Billboard charts and She’s A Woman on the Cashbox charts.

I disagree with that, @Dark Overlord, as Penny Lane  was a US #1. I don’t see how that’s “sort of” right.

Sorry, @The Hole Got Fixed.
