Think this one's appropriate in light of the passing of George Martin;

I remember that being my favourite tune on my older brother's Sgt. Pepper album.

I think, as a boy, I was fascinated by the story it tells.

Great choice Patricia.

Great tunes folks.

The family bought me a record player for my birthday last week, a fancy little thing looks like a briefcase made by Crosley

http://www.johnlewis.com/crosley-cruise ... mcampid=73

They also got me a couple of albums (remember them) from a charity shop, one called "The Stars Sing Lennon & McCartney" on the mfp label one of the tracks is this one by David & Jonathan (remember them).

How's this for a tenuous topical tune for National weekend - Paul McCartney's brother singing about the Aintree Iron?

Loved the Scaffold in the Everyman days (circa 1965) particularly remember a sketch where one of them was acting out searching around a bit of waste land looking for his virginity. He was getting married the next day and needed it for the wedding night, was sure this debris was where he'd lost it. Really appealed to my "sense of the ridiculous" even as a 15 year old :lol:
Enough of all my yesterdays; here's my offering for today;

You really DO read my mind Bee - I was just about to post that very same link.

3.5 minutes in and the little purple man totally steals the show.


I'll go for the same tune but by birthday boy Peter Frampton who turns 66 today...

Won't play on my browser but, is it (somehow, no matter how tenuously) linked to the Beatles?

Bernie - Sorry, that link didn't work for you.

With the sad and unexpected passing of Prince never gave it a thought
however, no damage done, as it didn't work!! :shock:

"Tenuously" let me see now - how about they all play guitars? :D

This one at least shows that Paul is human & subject to mistakes like the rest of us!! :oops:

My pick for the week the Hillsborough families may have finally got to the end of their own long, winding road...

This Lennon/McCartney ditty (which was really just down to Macca) was UK number one on this day in 1964...

PS - don't be shy folks, feel free to post something. Just make it Beatles related and only do it on a Friday.

Think I like that better than the original Bern; thanks.

Following on from your choice this is so predictable but someone's got to do it..... :D

Fair shout Bee - I've used that before as my FFF tune on FB so steered clear. :wink:
