Been doing this for a while on Facebook and as part of the old Dreamboats and Petticoats thread but it was mentioned that any Beatles fans may be missing the posts there so let's branch out.

Every Friday, I'll post a YouTube link to a Beatles related tune. It could be a Beatles song, a cover of a Beatles song or something by one of the lads individually - that kind of thing.

I won't do the embedded video thing as it takes ages for the page to load once a few are posted.

Feel free to add but let's keep it to a Friday thing - nice end to the working week that way!

To kick things off, here's one from the Help album - The Night Before - enjoy...

Great topic Bern, can only think of two Beatles tracks I dislike Number 9 & I Want You (She's So Heavy) but the rest bliss even some of Ringos stuff. I was always keen to play the B side, so Id like to kick off with this beaut "Old Brown Shoe"

Something a bit different but still Beatles related.

US number one on this day in 1963, this is the tune that got George Harrison into trouble when he was accused of ripping it off for 'My Sweet Lord'.

The morning after the night before - election wise.

I was hoping to dedicate this to Cameron and Co but instead it goes out to my fellow public sector workers, the NHS and indeed working class folk in general.

Fab Keith - always raises the roof that one.

My pick for this week which is inspired by a family event I'll mention elsewhere if I ever get the photo's sorted... :wink:

Easy choice for today's weather - anyone else think it's a bit 'Pink Floyd'ish in parts?
