It Was 50 Years Ago Today

[Monsieur Verdoux]

Is it George Martin, Stuart Sutcliffe or Pete Best, though? This could make all the difference.

Unfortunately it's Magic Alex.

Even better - 5.1 wallpaper!

All three of them, plus Magic Alex and Kevin Eldon, fused into one fifth Beatle.

If the worst Beatles song is 'Good Day Sunshine', then they're even greater than I already thought they were.

She's Leaving Home at 204; Her Majesty at 158.  The countdown of a cunt.

CUNTDOWN!

They're doing it for the numbers. Ignore it.

It occurred to me this morning that if Ringo had sung Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da no-one would have a problem with it. People are Paul racists.

No, no.

If you were to list the very worst Beatles' songs, most of them are Ringo-sung.

"This song, the Beatles' fifth single, which is about fucking and not hand-holding"......

41. "A Hard Day's Night," A Hard Day's Night (1964): As irresistible a song as the 1960s saw. The title came from Ringo, who delighted the band with his nonce catchphrases.

It was 60 years ago today
John Lennon asked Paul to play
They were introduced, and said "Hi Mate!"
When The Quarrymen rocked the Fête

So may I introduce to you
The act from St. Peter's Church Hall Woolton :
Johnny Lennon's Rockin' Skiffle Ba-a-a-nd

[Glebe]

I don't really wanna stop the skiffle
But I thought I might as well tell you
That the drummer's gonna sing a song
And he'd like you all to sing with him

So may I introduce to you
Not even the best drummer in The Beatles
Richard Starkey
