It's thoughtful of you to let everyone know. Also, thanks for originating your phrase from that horribly tiresome cliché. At the end of the day, we're thinking outside the box, and going forward, with a grassroots movement that should bring about a paradigm shift, that will maximize leverage to 110%. I guess a lot of folks are "done with The Beatles" but I don't think you'll be put to death for it. |

RoelantSiekman May 31, 2012 - 09:05 | Sure, it has some brilliant elements in it (such as the bass-line, but hey.. that's pretty standard for TB isn't it.. ;) but Penny Lane is so silly, that it is far from my favorite Beatles song. 7/10 |

bev Jan 25, 2012 - 12:53 | Thanks to you both for the story and the YouTube link to the video! Fabulous! apd wrote: Terrific story - and here he is: The Trumpet player on this, David Mason, was one of my professors at the Royal College of Music when I was a student there in the 1990s. He told us that he'd been called to do the recording because the Beatles had seen him on TV as a soloist in the 2nd Brandenberg Concerto. In later years he said he'd sold the old battered pic-trumpet used on this recording for a tidy sum - something which seemed to amaze him. I remember him as a very polite and quietly spoken old English gentleman, an inspiring teacher and an excellent musician. I always turn this track up out of respect for him... |

If you want biblical, slag Radiohead here —- the self appointed musos turn into a bunch if mental cases. I personally love the majority of the stuff the Beatles did, but I'm not gonna throw any rocks. :p |

Penny Lane. "You know," he said after thinking for another second, "You're right." I agree completely. |
