Last time I was this early George still had his biscuits

Paul: *plays a song*
Mike Love: "MORE GIRLS, IT NEEDS MORE GIRLS!!!! SURFING!!!"

It feels great as an Indian.❤️ And also as a Beatlemaniac.

George Harrison met Indian classical musician Ravi Shankar who was popular for playing Sitar. And George was greatly inspired by Ravi for which he took up the path of inner life and had a love towards Indian culture and Hinduism. The song 'My Sweet Lord' is one of the prooves where one can get to hear 'Halleluijah' and 'Hare Krishna' at the same time on chorus.

Donovan developed a crush on Jenny Boyd, sister of Pattie, during the time in India. She became a sort of muse to Donovan, and he wrote the lovely "Jennifer Juniper" for her.

Sexy Sadie. What have you done? You've made a fool of everyone. - John
It is the message and not the messenger. - George
Get me the hell out of here. - Ringo and Paul

I was 7/8 year old when I read that article about the Greatest Band of all time in Hrishikesh, at first I didn’t knew about the greatness of these 4 but now 8 years later I can die to time travel and meet John and George

Sexy Sadie was John's cynical song for the Maharishi

I think dear prudence was written about mia farrows sister as well, trying to get her to come out of her room

BIG thanks to Patti indeed!!!
George's interest in the Sitar on the HELP! set.. Patti introducing Eastern meditation.. leads to Ravi & George meeting.. leads to Ravi in Monterey.. Concert For Bangladesh.. and the migration of Eastern music to the West.
The Butterfly Effect at its best!!

Ringo didn't need any meditation. He was already well adjusted to life. Donovan also said of Paul that the melody's just flowed out of him while in India.

I hate when people dismiss the drug experimentation and the trip to India etc, as "Beatles got weird"

[kaylubproductions]

A Beatles "Lord of The Rings" would have been really cool, but good thing they made it how they did. Stanley Kubrick or David Lean would have been good directors though.

Just listened to the Super Deluxe White Album about a week ago and I freaking love the Esher demos. It’s beautiful to hear the beginning form of each song... In my own opinion, the White album is easily my favorite Beatles album for how underrated it is. By the way, love your videos! Please keep doing what you’re doing :)

Woah I live in India & didn't even know that The Beatles had visited!!😅

[fletcherlucas]

3:25 not only did Mike Love take credit for writing a lot of Beach Boys songs that Brian Wilson mostly wrote, but then he takes credit for a Beatles song?

[subhadra]

George eventually became a Hare Krishna...see My Sweet Lord. He gave money and land to the movement. Do a video about George's continued spirituality. He's the only one that stuck with it for a lifetime.

Can you do a video about their hair styles throughout the years

I grew up in 60s and 70s with only 2 Beatles albums in our house.
One was the White Album. Brought in by an older cousin.
That's one thing i learnt from your video and it's another piece in the puzzle of my life when Indian spirituality came to me as small messages from childhood.
Then in my mid 30s i came to India and have since spent a lot of time in India diving deeper into meditation and spirituality
