Re: Yoko to receive award

If the other beatles hated her why would they do the Ballad of John and Yoko? so far I know the ballad was recorded just by john and paul as they were they only two in london at the time. I once read that john said that he needed money which was the main reason for recording it in absent of the oth...

Re: One Hand Clapping OUT VERY SOON !

hmm, I´d have preferred the release of the '79 glasgow gig. beside the fact that many of us already own most of one hand clapping in an actually quite good audio quality as a bootleg, there are too many songs we all already know too good and don´t differ much from the recorded version. the glasgow g...

Re: Recording from Mimi to John

on the other hand it was probably julias lust for life and her genes that made john the person he was. she was open minded showing john that it is not important what other people think and that he should not listen to people who tell him how he has to life his life like "a guitar is allright jo...

Re: Recording from Mimi to John

On the other hand as I've always said, Mimi was to all intents and purposes John's mother and ultimately his salvation. He could have stayed with Fred or Julia but would have ended up like them in the end, working as a dishwasher or an usher. Without Mimi there would have been no Quarrybank, so no ...

Re: What's the next? New BBC stuff or BFS Deluxe?

Don't get me wrong, I love the later period too. But if a stranger asked me to put on a Beatles song, I sure wouldn't put on Martha My Dear or I Am the Walrus. I'd feel like some kind of weirdo. :lol: well I think it depends to whom u play walrus and what his musical preferences r. if it would be a...

Re: What's the next? New BBC stuff or BFS Deluxe?

I don't think the early Beatles are any less popular in fact I think people generally like many of the early songs . I mean, so many post 1966 Beatles songs are about animals or just nothing at all. The hippies loved it but there's nothing for people to relate to in many of those songs anymore. cau...

Re: The Red and Blue Albums in the UK Album Chart

a funny detail to the red and blue. the beatles stay in the uk charts at nr 2 and 3 behind taylor swift. the reason is as funny as absurd. the count the sales of the albums separately to the sales of both albums in the box set :). hard to beat in terms of absurdity when u think that the box costs th...
