There would be good and there would be bad. Like it is now. But just different.

In my respectfully humble opinium. Has there been any regrouping that has left improved the reputation.

John said on the last flexix disc walking in the snow talking to Yoky dear Beatles where the 60s Now it t a new era.....I think he was right.

The Fab thing I think its that it was an eposode that ended while they where on top....

Rather have the remixes by other than an orinal group that try tolive on. having said that I think Mick Co has done well.

I lived the 60s and remember it.

Merry Xmas
Tarahhh for now

Aside from Yesterday, I think a fictional 'what if John wasn't in the Beatles' has been attempted only this once. This is well worth a watch - apparently they might have been even bigger than the Hollies...

There was a rather horrible BBC radio play called "Sorry Boys, You Failed The Audition" which explored what happened when The Beatles failed to get a record contract.

It had a happy ending (sort of) but I found it very uncomfortable to listen to. I don't like to think of a world without The Beatles. That would be a hellish place.

Ah, I remember this now. The highlight of John's musical life is co-writing a musical for Paul's pupils at a local school, I think?
