Why We Love The Beatles (v2) 54 of 100

So there are the Fab Four on the rooftop above Saville Row, London. Apart from the chill wind, they look like they're having fun again. You're watching it on The Anthology DVD: 8,8....love the clothes...Paul's looking smart in a suit.... just a minute: what's that on Paul's Hefner bass? If there is one thing better than trivia, it's Beatles trivia. Trivia is fun and therapeutic because It is so grounding, it takes us right to the heart of the subject; that level of detail totally connects us. Whether it is some obscure fact about the production of a song, the basis of a lyric or who took Ringo's place on some of the White Album sessions.

Oh, and that bit of paper on Paul's bass? It's a play-list. But not for the roof-top concert. Still there from Candlestick Park, San Francisco.

That’s another reason we love The Beatles.
