‘The Fool on the Hill’, an “irresistible, universal" ballad, effectively transposes into pop music a literary theme seen in fairy tales, stories of monarchs prizing their court jester over more learned counsel, and Dostoevsky's novel ‘The Idiot’.
- from Nicholas Schaffner’s book, ‘The Beatles Forever’

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1943, legendary #Beatles lead guitarist #GeorgeHarrison was born. Initially overshadowed by his bandmates, George later proved an exceptional songwriter, and his melodic style and fondness for 12-string & slide were key components in the Beatles' success.
Happy heavenly birthday to #Beatles legend #GeorgeHarrison!
Back in the day, Harrison sat down for an interview to discuss his musical inspirations, life experiences, and the creation of his label, Dark Horse Records.

Just watched #YellowSubmarine for the first time in at least thirty years. I'd forgotten how brilliant it was. So many things I'd forgotten. (In particular John Lennon drawn making horns signs at the start of All You Need is Love.) Perhaps a little dated? Which makes me wonder how the world today could be given the same treatment, if at all...

Thinking about sad billionaires trying to make up for the big hole in their lives where human warmth should be.....
“Rock n roll is currently defined by 3 eras... post #Beatles, post #VanHalen, and post #Nirvana.
Gen x'ers like myself got to experience the Beatlemania aftershocks, we got to see the rise of Van Halen as kids and as young adults/teens, we got to experience Nirvana.
We're some lucky sumbitches...” — #rickcrotts6673

@randahl yes, I wasn't there myself but I love my music enough to remember that in the mid-sixties, it was #America that was burning #Beatles records for being 'bigger than Jesus' (Lennon quip taking out of context, as he said 'right now we are bigger than Jesus', which was a fact). So the puritan KKK nazi strand and love of burning things and people was always there, it was just given way more oxygen this year.
