; the parade of unpainted dreams ;

No one ever made Paul laugh more than John, and right here at Christmastime came an incident he would always tell with great fondness. After leaving Forthlin Road late one night without his glasses, John told Paul he saw on Mather Avenue “some mad people sitting in their front porch playing cards at one o’clock in the bloody morning.” What?! The next time Paul went past he looked for himself, and it was an illuminate nativity scene. Cue hysterics.  —  Tune In: The Beatles - All These Years, Vol. 1 by Mark Lewisohn

Happy Birthday, Ringo Starr (b. 7th July 1940)

Paul: Well, we were out in California and we were working in LA and stuff, I started thinking of, like, the old Laurel Canyon vibe, you know, with Eagles, Joni Mitchell, all that sort of… Jackson Browne, all that sort of thing, you know. So I wanted to do something a little bit in that vein. So the guitar riff is trying to evoke that kind of period, so it’s sort of dreamy LA sort of sound, you know.

Happy Birthday Paul [June 18, 1942]

In the middle of the night I wake up in the dark. Is this Tokyo, London, where is it? It doesn’t seem to matter as long as it’s on this globe. Would I care if it was on the moon? Yes, I think I would be lonelier then though I don’t know why. Sometimes the moon looks closer than Tokyo. What would happen if I called my mother now. Would I hit her manicure again?”

I’ll follow the sun ☀️
