Macro Monday theme:- Beatles/ Beetles
I went for the 1967 double A side of Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields.
George Martin later regretted not including the two songs on The Beatles' Sgt Pepper album.
The only reason that Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane didn't go onto the new album was a feeling that if we issued a single, it shouldn't go onto an album. That was a crazy idea, and I'm afraid I was partly responsible. It's nonsense these days, but in those days, it was an aspect that we'd try to give the public value for money.
The idea of a double A side came from me and Brian, really. Brian was desperate to recover popularity, and so we wanted to make sure that we had a marvellous seller. He came to me and said, 'I must have a really great single. What have you got?' I said, 'Well, I've got three tracks - and two of them are the best tracks they've ever made. We could put the two together and make a smashing single.' We did, and it was a smashing single - but it was also a dreadful mistake. We would have sold far more and got higher up in the charts if we had issued one of those with, say, When I'm Sixty-Four on the back
I dont really know the beatles i never really did.. but i loveeed this quote and when i saw it i thought it was worth taking a picture of! and of course i photo edited it to make it look older.
I felt pretty much like a teenage girl going after the Beatles, or maybe Elvis' autographs as I fought for a spot to get a shot of UP Big Boy 4014. The crowds were enormous to say the least. Seen here in downtown Wheaton, Illinois the Big Boy was steaming under the old interurban line bridge on UP's Geneva Sub.
Presented here in solid puter (Left to Right) : "Here Comes the Sun", "I am the Walrus", "Octopuse's Garden", "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Maxwell's Silver Hammer", and "Rocky Racoon"

Postcard with The Beatles dressed in the clothes they wore on their Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club album in 1967. Sent to a Postcrosser in Japan for a direct swap.
Well, despite the fact that the beetles are quite rare in November, I did not declare defeated! But with this ...(censored)... paper, a little bit crazier at the end ! :-) HMM!
I forgot to post this photo from last Saturday... the poster is $2,000.00! I bet it's going to be there for a very long time!
