Can anyone tell me how the Beatles and their people travelled in 1968/69? I don’t think the guys left England much during this time, so I guess I’m asking about their people. I’ve not heard they had an airplane. Did they charter airplanes? Did they fly commercial? Anyone? I ask this question because I think I flew on either a private or more likely a Beatles chartered aircraft in September 1968.

The day before yesterday I learnt that Saint Valentine is also the patron saint of beekeepers. As the Beatles Bible House Apiarist, I was very pleased.

Just now I learnt the chords to Maybe I’m Amazed — another one of those songs that I periodically forget about, remember, get obsessed with/recall just how good it is, and forget it. Maybe if I can play it, I’ll remember it more frequently a-hard-days-night-george-10

Bob Marley’s “I Shot The Sheriff” is about birth control. Bob Marley didn’t want his girlfriend to take birth control pills. The doctor who prescribed the pills was the sheriff.

That Miles Davis and Jimi Hendrix were not only planning to record an album, but that they were going to invite our Paul along to play bass..

I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.
