Thank you, SB. I enjoyed the two Desert Island Discs episodes with Paul and Yoko. I think Yoko comes across well, and I appreciate her honesty.
It’s nice that Paul was able to bring in Chet Atkins to play on his dad’s composition, and the Imagine video is certainly impressive too.
Let’s continue with this fellow:
George (music)

Offline I’m thinking your song may have something to do with Hogg Hill Mill studios, but I can’t think of a song George would have recorded there (except for the 2 Anthology tunes). Gonna have to thunk on it some more…

Offline That’s a picture-link that I hadn’t thought of earlier: the recording studio at Hogg Hill Mill. Great idea, SB – but, as far as I know, there isn’t a connection with the song I have in mind.
This one may be a little tricky again (I’ll think of an easier one next time), so I should give a hint to narrow it down.
It’s a song on one of George’s 1980s albums:
* Somewhere In England
* Gone Troppo
* Cloud Nine

Offline I enjoy your puzzles Rich. 
Hopefully my searching for the answers isn’t too annoying 
How about the oldie but goodie Circles?
Love someone change your mind
Decide he was a swine
As you go round and round in circles
Before I saw your hint I was going to guess George’s ode to shrooms, Soft-Hearted Hana.
I ate it and at once my eyes could see you
No sooner had I ooped it down
I felt so far off from the ground I stood on.
My legs they seemed to me like high-rise buildings
My head was high up in the sky
My skin the sun began to fry like bacon.
Hana, Maui is well known for its magic mushrooms growing out of the cow pies in the hills. Best way to preserve them is in honey, which is later “ooped down”.

Not at all. I enjoy the links that you find, such as Hogg Hill Mill.

Offline I knew that one would be in your background. It’s a strange holiday with unusual traditions. For many years I had no idea what John was referring too.

I’m not sure whether this next puzzle is easy, but it shouldn’t be very difficult anyway:

Offline Maybe Back Off Boogaloo? (Get yourself together now/And give me something tasty) If so, that’s pretty cool that both picture games featured Frankenstein on the same day. Do you think that’s Harry Nilsson in the video? Many fan sites say it is but I’ve never seen any actual credit.

That’s the song, @sigh butterfly! 
Yes, Frankenstein in both games simultaneously is cool. He deserves the honour. 
Do you think that’s Harry Nilsson in the video? Many fan sites say it is but I’ve never seen any actual credit.
Likewise, I’ve never seen a specific credit. I wonder if Ringo has ever been asked in an interview? Back Off Boogaloo was a big hit for him (#2 in the UK and Canada, and #9 in the US) and it’s a fun video, so an interviewer may have raised the subject with him.

Offline Thanks Rich (also for being generous with your hints). I tried to help someone on the forum a few years back who seemed obsessed with the BOB video. We both searched around the internet with no luck nailing down the monster’s ID. I remember being surprised that both Cass Elliot and Keith Moon. died in his London Apartment. (9 Curzon Place #12).
Here’s a clue to another Paul song lyric.

with the blue apple! 
I think it may well be Harry Nilsson in the video but it would be nice to have confirmation.
For the new puzzle:
Helen Wheels
a song about a Land Rover, which is a 4-by-4 vehicle, and those discs are 4-by-4 (4 songs by 4 different artists) too.

Offline Cool, I forgot all about the blue label. Also I forgot his forum name Arthur Sultan was the guru in All You need Is Cash.
No on Helen Wheels, but the song is a 70s release.
