I used to have that record and played it all the time!

I could, and have, listened to What is Life over and over again.

Does anyone like When We Were Fab? I don’t think it’s been mentioned.

I do. I like the whole Cloud Nine album.

If memory serves, George tried to get Paul McCartney to appear in the video, but Paul was unavailable, so he suggested to George that he use a left-handed bass player in a walrus suit. Having Neil Aspinall walk through the scene carrying a copy of John’s Imagine album (that’s the back cover) during that shot with Ringo on drums was a nice touch.

There’s a guy on YouTube who thinks the lyrics and video combine to contain a reference to every Beatles album, although he does admit he may be reaching at times. If you have 13 minutes to kill you can decide for yourself if he’s accurate or reaching.

I think he’s spot on. I’ve noticed those references, too.

I guess this is as good as anyplace to leave this. Two songs with George and Paul Simon from SNL (since I’m a big SNL watcher)

Here Comes The Sun and Homeward Bound
