      Fantastic clip of their creative process:

        For anyone feeling a bit confused by the colors: the "Red Album" is a compilation of songs from 1962–1966, while the "Blue Album" continues that with a compilation covering 1967–1970. The "White Album" (officially titled The Beatles) is one of their original studio albums. Sorry—just being a nerd!

          @endo the blue album was my first Beatles purchase with the red being my second. Over the years I have purchased many albums by cd, their entire catalog digitally, and working on a few vinyl here and there.

                  A few weeks ago I picked my 6 year old little girl Marilyn up from one of her school buddies birthday parties. Her friends parents took me to one side while she said goodbye to everyone and told me that after the usual party games, sandwiches, cake, etc that they put music on and asked each little girl for a song request to do some dancing to. After requests for Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, K-Pop Demon Hunters and the usual stuff, it was Marilyn’s turn and she asked for “I want to hold your hand” by the Beatles…

                  I’ve done a lot of things wrong in my life but hearing this made me think that I just might have got something right. I also couldn’t help but be a little sad too when I thought about the strange looks her friends must have given her..

                    Technically we are house divided as Paul is my wifes favorite while George is mine

                    Needless to say we have had this picture in the living room of every apartment or house we have lived in for the last 22 years

                          ha 😁 I knew that.

                          Good start, though. And, of course, I'm on Georges' team too.
                          Tell us more about the picture ...

                            I hardly remember actually buying it let alone where.

                            We just loved the negative image and colors

                            I wanted to get the one of george in similar style but knew well enough to pick my battles

                            It was early on in our relationship so we had almost no money and probably shouldn't have even bought the one we did.

                            I seem to remember eating only Ramen noodles (cheap dry american version that cost 10 cents per pack back then) for at least a week or 2 after

                                      on the love for Ringo, this seems to be the general consensus as well, as documented by the Lennon wall in Prague as of ~july 2016

                                        When Paula and I were sorting out our wedding, we asked @Alex (who was about 12 and our best man) what music we should play, his suggestion was Yesterday, by the Beatles. 😂

                                            Thankfully, I think we are largely past the days where it was cool to make fun of Ringo.

                                            In recent decades he’s finally started getting the credit he deserves as an innovative, tasteful and unwaveringly reliable drummer.

                                            All four were brilliant in their own ways. It petty when people try to pick out a weak link.

                                            Love this song, and video looks as fresh as last week:
