Now you may not have heard of this band. You know that guy who wrote "The Frog Song", and the guy that did the narration on "Thomas The Tank Engine"? well, this was their band back in the 60's.with a couple of other blokes. This mini album (it was initilly a double EP but was rereleased with their non album singles from 1967 added) contains some of my favourite Beatles songs, In particular "I Am The Walrus", "Magical Mystery Tour" and "Strawberry Fields Forever". I'm also rather partial to the instrumental track "Flying" as well.
Oh, and another thing. Don't let anyone get away with saying Ringo was a bad drummer. He was fantastic, one of the only drummers who can actually make drums sound psychedelic! Particularly on "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "I Am The Walrus", here, have a listen...
