Aha, this is an easy one.. if you raise the contrast by 16 quintillion% you can very easily make out the faces of Karl Perkin’s cousin Barton Perkin, a dead Milkman, an 80 year old man of no distinguishable position, Winston Churchill (nude) and Adam Ant.
Does anyone know what edible substance was found in the lining of Pete Best’s Leather Jacket?

Offline Liqourice is correct! Pete liked a good nibble.
Im an expert on rooftop concert trivia, as I was the roof. The first draft of the setlist was
1)You Know My Name (Look up some numbers)
2)what’s the new Mary Janet
Buckle)Beethoven’s 9th (this was cancelled as Paul McCartney and Ludwig Van had serious personal issues at the time)
My)Ouch!
Shoe)Take out some life Insurance on my baby

Offline It all started when Paul suggested Ludwig play a piano part on Martha My Dear just so, but Ludwig wouldn’t listen to anything. This, along with Ludwig’s misplaced belief that McCartney was the ‘quiet’ Beatle exasperated Paul so much that he wound-up tellling Ludwig that he wrote Because (the only Beatle song Beethoven enjoyed) just to get some credit.

I don’t want to seem like a fake fan but I reckon the usual “Marks and Spencer’s Spaghetti Carbonara” sums it up perfectly. I did anger me when Egypt station came out and all the radio stations were talking about the Pastacartney incident.

Offline Savoy Truffle . It can be heard (as expected) during the line ‘you’ll have to have them all pulled out after the Savoy Truffle . The model Klaus used was an Philips Sonicare repainted by The Fool. It was later sold at auction for £1.29.
In which song can somebody (possibly Ringo or Geoff Emerick) be heard shouting ‘I’ve got blisters on me fingers’?

I used to “play” my guitar by taking an electric toothbrush (or occasionally a small handheld battery operated fan) and activating it near the pickups, creating a cool electronic whining sound! AVANT-GARDE!
That would be the Hollywood Bowl version of “Dizzy”; the remark came not from Geoff or Ringo, but from a 13-year old fan in the 13th row, Carole Markowitz. Her fingers were raw after 30 minutes of clapping, biting them (to suppress shrieks), and other activities.

Offline They did just that. They rolled over Ringo, and they liked it. It was fun. And then someone, probably Paul (as he was really jealous of Ringo’s inability to play drums), suggested the idea of rolling a big joint with Ringo inside. So they wrapped good old Ringo inside a cigarette paper and smoked him and flew away. And that’s the beginning of the RID myth.

Ringo’s lyrics (which were removed to make way for a guitar solo by Paul – which was in turn removed (at George’s insistance) and replaced with an extract from a televised adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing – which was removed (at Yoko’s insistance) and replaced by various sound affects including a cow being milked, a cash register, a guillotine, an apple being eaten, and a Volkswagen Beetle – which was removed and replaced (at Paul’s insistance) by ….) is as follows:

Offline That would be “One For Capitol” (aka “Dave Dexter Blues”), an improvisatory 9-minute Dylanesque talking-blues in which John speculates about the band’s American label building an entire new album around the performance itself, while laughing at the idea of having fewer songs than George on their version of “Revolver “. The others thought he was being self-indulgent and paranoid, and vetoed.
