Episode 05 – Beatles ’65 pt5

The Beatles had once again triumphantly returned to Britain after a whirlwind tour of North America...but the break in activity wouldn't last long. By September, EMI was quick to remind the boys that they needed a new LP for the Christmas season, so once again John, Paul, George and Ringo returned to the studio to pull a record out of thin air. But this time it was different. This time, the record itself was being thought of as a piece of art that The Beatles could craft using all they had learned up to this point. By October, they were knee deep in studio exploration when it came time to visit Buckingham Palace to at last receive the much anticipated MBE Award from Queen Elizabeth. Honored by their country, decorated by their Queen, Lennon and McCartney would next be honored by their fellow pop stars in a television special dedicated to their songwriting. All this over a two month period, for young men the oldest of which was only twenty five. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
