Beatles Cartoon STEREO Eight Days a Week
Views: 151,621From 1966 (though it SAYS 1965). The Beatles visit a movie studio, where they discover that famous lover in the movies, Lipps Lovely, has "lost his lip" — worn out from endless kissing! But Paul doesn't believe it could be that bad, and takes Lipps' place in his current movie, only to learn that it's more hazardous than he thought! The song is dubbed in stereo; I added the song ending from "Anthology 1" (mono) over the ending credits.

Beatles Cartoon STEREO I Am the Walrus
Views: 431,842Unlike older stereo versions of this song, AND the newly remastered "Magical Mystery Tour" CD, this does NOT revert to rechanneled fake stereo after the second verse. For those who prefer WMV file format, this is uploaded to RapidShare, 32.3 MB: rapidshare.com From...2008 (new!). A routine day's drive takes a bizarre turn into a strange realm of eggmen, space-walruses, and uncertain identity!

Beatles Cartoon Penny Lane
Views: 676,888Horrors! The Beatles are losing their female fans to "England's greatest detective" -- James Blond! Then they overhear some thieves making plans to "rob Penny Lane", and they figure that, if they catch the crooks, they'll outshine their new rival. So, they make haste back to the street in Liverpool, and look around for "strange-looking characters"... Of note: I added an alternate song ending to the credits.

Beatles Cartoon Tell Me What You See
Views: 74,073From 1966 (though it SAYS 1965). The Beatles visit Hollywood's greatest master of makeup and disguises. When they poke around his electronic "makeup machine", he decides to 'teach them a lesson'! Note: The baby seen hopping around here is modeled after "Swee'pea" from the Popeye cartoons that Al Brodax had made a few years earlier. Also, John does his famous Jimmy Durante impression!

Beatles Cartoon Run for your Life
Views: 105,789From the Beatles Cartoon series, from 1966 (although it SAYS 1965). When the Beatles visit the Palace at Versailles, Ringo is hit on the head by a falling bust, and dreams about Marie Antoinette and a very jealous Louis XVI (and the peasants are positively revolting!)

Beatles Cartoon STEREO Im Looking Through You CO...
Views: 42,837From 1966 (though it SAYS 1965), newly revised! This episode always suffered from the annoying defect that it depicts John as the singer, rather than Paul. I have now re-edited it to correct that mistake. While I was at it, I dubbed the music in stereo (and included the extra opening notes from the old US stereo "Rubber Soul" LP!), and added the song ending from "Anthology 2" over the end credits. Presenting "I'm Looking Through You" — the Corrector's Cut! When the Beatles search inside an Egyptian pyramid for a place to rehearse, a mummy's spirit steals Ringo's body so that he can walk among the living, leaving Ringo as nothing but a transparent apparition — a ghost of his former self!

Beatles Cartoon Im Down
Views: 83,403From 1966 (though it SAYS 1965). When the Beatles visit a French wine-making village, Ringo spills their large vat of crushed grapes -- an entire month's harvest wasted! How can they refill the vat in just two hours? The energizing power of "I'm Down"! Noteworthy: The animators apparently had seen the TV special "The Beatles at Shea Stadium", showing John playing the keyboard with his elbow during this song, as they re-create that event here. Ringo calling himself "that little old wine-spiller -- me!" alludes to a TV commercial campaign of the time for Italian Swiss Colony Wine, featuring a man who calls himself "that little old winemaker -- me!" This ad series is also referred to in the 1967 Looney Tune "Fiesta Fiasco", where Daffy Duck calls himself "that little old rain-maker -- me!"

Beatles Cartoon And Your Bird Can Sing
Views: 91,116From 1967. The Beatles accompany two ornithologists who are attempting to catch a rare songbird — the wily "green double-breasted tropical worsted", who proves to be too much for the love-crossed couple. And the Beatles themselves become worried about the competition! Note: The tune that the Beatles characters whistle at the end (not an actual Beatles recording) is "The Colonel Bogey March", made famous for whistling in "The Bridge on the River Kwai".

Views: 178,773From...2009 (new!) Back in the late 60's, a tour flight from Miami Beach, Florida to the town of "Republic, Georgia" takes an egregious wrong turn to the Soviet "Republic OF Georgia"!

To keep it safe, John sews it inside Ringo's inner jacket pocket before they visit CONEY Island. Once there, Ringo worries that a sinister-looking figure is after the loot -- but he finds no safety fleeing into the Wax Museum and the Haunted House!

Yellow Submarine Best of Both Versions
Views: 510,411There were two versions of the cartoon movie "Yellow Submarine" that differ in the portion from the latter part of "All You Need Is Love" to "Hey Bulldog". Version ONE, which integrates the plot line of "two sets of Beatles" seen in "Hey Bulldog", was used for the DVD release. Version TWO has two sub-versions: (a) includes "Hey Bulldog", and (b) does not. Version 2b was used for the previous videocassette release. Those familiar with the DVD version will see that in version 2, they actually sing some of the LYRICS to "Baby, You're a Rich Man"! Here is an edit I created of the scenes between "All You Need Is Love" and "Hey Bulldog" that encompasses the content of BOTH versions.

Beatles Cartoon Eleanor Rigby
Views: 295,568James, the Beatles' driver from the "Strawberry Fields" episode, is back to point out that a "mean" old lady is really just sad and lonely -- a product of her "sociological environment". "You've said that before!" replies John. The animators employ a device to be seen again in their forthcoming "Yellow Submarine", of depicting the downtrodden folk in dull shades of gray. Beatles music to the rescue! The song the Beatles play at the end is "I Feel Fine".

Beatles Cartoon STEREO REMIXED Strawberry Fields
Views: 12,053From 1967, with the song dubbed in a new stereo remix I made to expand the orchestral section! (...unlike the newly remastered "Magical Mystery Tour" CD!) This episode was inspired by the fact that the "Strawberry Field" of the song had been based on a real-life Salvation Army orphanage in Liverpool. When the Beatles stop by a dilapidated orphanage, the hostile attitude of the children (who are drawn in muted colors like the downtrodden Pepperlanders in "Yellow Submarine") is explained by the Beatles' driver, James, as being being due to their "sociological environment". So the Beatles set about to create an Elysian playground with song! John's "Musketeer Gripweed", of his film "How I Won the War", has a cameo! (Thanks, anti-wars!) Note: John's final line, "It's all in the mind, y'know!" would be echoed by George in "Yellow Submarine", verbatim in a DVD-only scene during the coda of "All You Need Is Love", plus approximately quoted earlier in all versions of the film (and as well used in print advertising for the film). Also: the slide seen is the "Helter Skelter" type, the kind that would itself inspire a Beatles song the following year!

The only solution: put the monster to sleep with song!
