Yesss...an excellent post indeed Mr. Franks.  Hats off to the Beatles collectively as well as individually.  

Thanks especially for posting It Don't Come Easy, and Uncle Albert...likely my favs by each artist.  I remember as an 8 or 9 year old, playing in the neighbors basement (Mark, it was Dominskis), and listening to Ram...and I loved Uncle Albert because it was just so cool.  That was 4 or 5 years before I'd ever lay a hand on a guitar, but the music connected for me at a young age.

I think it's worth mentioning here...when my friend Hans (violin) and I play out in downtown Greenville, we always do "And I Love Her" as well as "Norweigan Wood".  Those usually bring a few smiles from older guys like us.

And yes...Thomas the Tank.  I still stop to watch that show, and I agree how good it is for "kidults".  Ringo wins the award for best narrator.

And hey...let me add yet more value to this excellent thread.  Let's not forget this GEM as well!!!  "The Point", the coolest cartoon "musical" ever, narrated by none other!  (1971)

(you need to watch at least a few mins, especially if you've not seen it in decades...)
