You come on a Beatles fan forum accuse John of blatantly cheating on 4 songs on one album (without proving it) and you tell me to deal with it, whats your next trick ? tell me my Mother was a whore and ask me to deal with that haha


I think that just says it all about just how overly worked up you are about this. If you can't just talke about something as trivial as to wheter or not John Lennon borrowed a few ideas for his songs  without flipping your lid then I'll leave you to it.

Trivial ??? plagiarism = trivial ??

what planet are you on ?

still waiting for you to prove what you claim btw about John nicking songs

but somehow I get the feeling your not going too (or not able too), now why doesnt that surprise me ?

anyway Ive said all Im going to say on this, I will leave you too your weird beliefs that Sun King has the same melody as Albatross and that Because has the same melody as Beethovens Moonlight sonata and I will shake my head in disbelief that you call yourself a Beatles fan while at the same time you piss on John Lennons memory, reputation & grave. (figuratively speaking of course)

I always wondered whether fans in 1969 realised it was really The End for The Beatles.

We had no idea that it was the end for The Beatles in the Fall of 1969.  We were too busy looking for clues!  ;)

But seriously, there was very little in the way of news regarding The Beatles in those days.  It was just what we read in newspapers or the news we got over radio and TV.  We were happy with the release of Abbey Road and thought it was another in their series of albums over six years.  We looked forward to their next album in 1970.  We started to hear about rifts in the Spring of 1970.

Those wonderful days when the internet was science fiction.

I gree! We had no idea. We would get media stuff on John and Yoko's antics and Paul is Dead broke wide open in the fall of 69 and Let It Be was to be released whenever, so it just seemed they would keep on going.

My second fave album after Revolver but is the best sounding of all the boys albums.

YNGMYM is also one of my favorite Beatle songs, along with Something.

I'm puzzled about Her Majesty, TK? Its common knowledge that an engineer who was told to get rid of the master for it, tacked it on at the end!!
It was originally slotted in between PP and SCITTBW - that sloppy guitar chord is the final strum of PP.


When Paul heard the final mix, he left on the end, so as The End wouldn't sound as too much of a 'pompous' statement? Something like that anyway.

OH, and re The End solo? I think in 'Revolution In The Head by Ian McDonald, it details the order of the solo. Actually, its in Geoff Emerick's excellent book, 'Here, There and Everywhere'>

I think Her Majesty was originally supposed to be in between Mean Mr. Mustard and Polythene Pam.  The chord heard just prior to Her Majesty is the final strum of Mean Mr. Mustard...
