![]() ![]() On The Beatles' time in India to learn meditation The Beatles and their family and friends visit with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi at the Rishikesh in India in 1968. It ended up, as you know, if you listen to it, it's very chaotic and it's really quite crazy. Pepper's Band, this is a completely new idea. "Anyway, so I got in the studio and said to each musician, start on your lowest note of your instrument and go up till you reach your highest note, but go in your own time. It's time! We're allowed a symphony orchestra!'. "Because I'd been listening to a lot of avant-garde music at that time, just for my own pleasure and just to examine the scene and just see if I liked it, I thought that this orchestral cascade, this sort of mountain of orchestra and kind of quite chaotic, would be a good idea at this point in the song 'A Day in the Life.' So I came into the studio and said, 'OK, this is what we'd like you to do,' because we had a big symphony orchestra, which George Martin had sort of said, 'Oh no, we don't need that!' And we said, 'No, come on, George! We're The Beatles. On experimenting with an orchestra in Sgt. It was a guy out of this strange band, and in some way, it was just liberating." So the idea was so that when you stepped up to a microphone, it was not now John Lennon Beatle doing his song. We can sing like whoever they saw the band is. So it meant now anything goes, we don't have to sing like The Beatles. "I don't think it really was terrifying or even boring, but I had this idea to just change our identity and make ourselves think that we were kind of another band. Pepper's' At 50: Why The Beatles' Masterpiece Can't Be Replicated And also when you stepped up to a microphone, you were conscious of all that background of, 'I'm Beatle Paul, and I'm going to do a Beatle Paul song.' So we can't get too far out because people just go, 'What the hell's going on? They've gone mad!' So you had certain standards for Beatles records you were always trying to advance those standards, but there were limits that you felt. And when you made a record, you knew you were making a Beatles record, and so you imposed certain parameters on it. "We'd been The Beatles for quite a while. On why they chose to go with a persona on Sgt. And we couldn't because it was just a million seagulls screaming." It was like, OK, it would be quite nice to be able to hear the song we're playing. "Later then, it got a bit worrying because now the first sort of flush of the excitement had been going for quite a few years and we were maturing and we were sort of out of that phase. On how the screaming of Beatlemania got old It really was just we young guys trying to get laid, as Americans would say." It was the fulfillment of all our dreams. It was kind of the opposite for us, so I suppose, as we got more and more popular and the girls started screaming, to tell you the truth, we just enjoyed it. We didn't mind, as long as we were attractive, because as kids, we were apparently not very attractive and we certainly weren't the big kind of quarterback who attracted all the girls in town. So as we got fans, that became our motivation, which was, we were trying to be attractive in any way you like - visually, physically, sexually. ![]() We just wanted to have a girlfriend and basically do as much as we could, was the idea. It is offered now on Amazon for pre-sales.On the Beatles going from normal teenage boys to being the most desired men on the planet Then on Apthe book will be available for sale worldwide. I will be there to sign books, give a presentation, talk on a few panels, sit at a table, and chat about The Beatles. The book is going to have its premiere at the Fest for Beatle Fans in Jersey City, NJ, on March 31-April 2, 2023. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. This is a story that has never been told before and has taken me 5 years to write. There are some great stories that have never been shared before about fans that met The Beatles for Real due to their connection with the fan club. There are tons of photos, and many are in color (but it is a Beatles book, so obviously, black and white is more common). My new book, "Dear Beatle People: The Story of the Beatles North American Fan Club," is 378 pages of information about the Beatles Fan Club in the United States and Canada. No one HAS to buy it, and please do not complain about the price. However, since you all are Beatles fans, I want you to know about my upcoming book. You'd be crazy NOT to promote your book!" On the other hand, "It is your site, and over 2000 people visit a day to see Beatles content. On the one hand, I think, "People come here for the Beatles photos, and no one needs you to brag about a book. I have mixed feelings about sharing information about my book on MTBFR.
