Happy Friday (and 3 day weekend in the states)! I took this opportunity to listen to Anthology and it sounds like George yells “Not half” after the first verse of Sheik of Araby.

Congratulations, @sigh butterfly, and special credit to @Ahhh Girl! 
Happy Birthday , @Magill! 
The Beatles’ version of The Sheik Of Araby includes “not ‘alf” after the first verse. As mentioned in The Sheik Of Araby discussion thread, this is slang roughly along the lines of “very good” in meaning – with a little innuendo in this context. The disc jockey and radio personality, Alan Freeman, often used this expression in his radio broadcasts, such as ‘Pick of the Pops’.
Over to you again, SB.

sigh butterflyMy hot take is that after the Beatles split they went down the paths of spiritualism, solipsism, alcoholism, and Paul McCartney
