I just love "Hey Bulldog". Interesting factoid, when the movie was first released, they cut it from the movie because of length. It was only in the re-relaease that they put it back in.
I was about 6 when it came out , didn't see the movie till much later , had the LP before I saw the movie , still have the original LP with its cut out sleeve intact...hell I still have my Cheech and Chong LP with the giant rolling paper intact too....
I don't remember exactly when I saw the movie. I was not that impressed or interested by it so it did not make a long term memory for me. There were other songs that the Fab 4 put out that I really liked, but, the Yellow Submarine seemed to be a real drug induced 'trip' they were all on, albeit, a well organized one.
Maybe you should watch it again. It is an analogy about good and evil/ past and present. I recently bought the DVD, and saw it differently than I did as a kid.
I may do that, Perrie. It has been along time ago that I watched it. And as I was not the much interested in it I really didn't pay that much attention to it. I might look at it different now. (grin)
"All You Need Is Love" appears both on the Magical Mystery Tour soundtrack album (although it does not appear in the film/tv show MMT) and also appears in Yellow Submarine.
The Fab Four were not my cup of tea. I was more into Los Indios Tabajaras. Skinny pants and bowl haircuts in my world were not something that you cared for. I was into no pants and really long hair..
Are you familiar with them. The are two brothers from Brazil who are self taught on the guitar. The have toured world wide and play all types of music. From Classical to Country. Numerous best selling singles and albums...
I don't understand your comment though.
Gee I can't imagine why you would like that better... hummmm...;)
They are better guitar players, play many more types of music and wear feathers..Of course I like them better.
In 1971-2 I went to the Playboy Theatre in Chicago for the 'all night' show. They played Hard Days Night, Help, and Yellow Submarine and Magical Mystery Tour back to back. You could get a contact high just sitting there. Bongs were passed down the isle. We all sang the songs together. It was epic.
The Summer of 1968 was hot as hell and I was barely a teenager. There were race riots that Summer though the more serious anti-war protests were just beginning. Later in the year in November we elected the God forsaken Dick Nixon to his first term so America was not exactly as hip as some want to remember us being back in the swinging sixties from my perspective. My memories are not much good regarding that particular time in American history. Vietnam raged and would rage on for years and years. Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr were both assassinated in 68. My memories of that time are mostly bad though I did see YS at a theater in OKC when it first came and and realized at the time that my enjoyment of it would have probably been enhance by ingesting some sort of mind expanding drug though I did not have any. I hadn't even smoked a joint at that point. Next year, 1969 will be the 50th anniversary of The Summer of Love in San Francisco. That was when things really began to change. The Sixties were definitely a transitional period...

Hey Mark,
I have both original albums too, but I lost my rolling paper somewhere....
Hummmm....
LOL I had mine before I had kids , and after I had kids and they started "experimenting" , it was a real challenge to keep the LP intact....

Raven,

Love the title song.
The animation style is not my cup of tea.

You are correct about "All you need is Love" .. I think the UK version of the albums both have it

Mellow, suave

50 years? Yeesh.
I remember the cartoon was really strange.
You should try and watch it again. I think you would see it in a different way.
Dear Friend Perrie: The movie hit theaters when I was in my 20's.
Never saw it.
The Beatles never met me.
Its a push.
E.
LOL Enoch.. that comment made me
I am another who never watched it.
Then again, I never saw Titanic either.
No real reason for either.
Titanic is a lot better movie than you might think. James Cameron is a brilliant , meticulous director.
I don't doubt that. It was one of those things that was never on the to do list. For no real reason.

I think the line that remained with me all these years is this one:
