Forget India ‘68. India ‘66 is where it’s at* *'it’ being the boys looking hot

What's your favorite Beatles era musically?

I'll go with 1967-1968.

pattie in india 1968 - ily pattie u can do no wrong 💘💘

[paulic]

this part of let it be makes me want to sell my soul to the devil to have been with them in India. What the fuck sort of meta conversation is going on between J&P

P: “It’s incredible yknow just to sort of see us. What we’re doing, it’s incredible…”

?: “What were you doing?”

J: “yes, what were we doing?”

P (stuttering, pulling his hair): “well, y— err, I don’t really know, you know, but it’s like, we totally sort of put our own personalities on there […]”

Ringo laughing, cut to John grinning

this morning I was researching more info about "I'm so tired" (to be honest the whole white album has secrets we are yet to discover in my opinion) and stumbled across this

GUYS?!? WHO HAD A FARM IN 1968?!?

YOU'RE RIGHT FELLAS, IT'S PAUL MCCHARMLY 🗣️🗣️🗣️

I should probably sleep more.

paul mccartney’s immovable heterosexual object vs john lennon’s unstoppable homosexual force

1. They both look outstanding here, it boggles my mind that this was them at their most chaotic.

2. It looks like they both decided to colour-coordinate their outfits for the press conference, which makes them look even more outstanding and chaotic.

3. You see that tie Paul’s wearing? Why did I only just realise that’s the same tie John has wrapped around his head in Strawberry Fields Forever? So they were sharing clothes again? OK. Chaotic.

oooooooooh what does Junk have to do with John???

"Paul McCartney knew he was in trouble the morning he couldn’t lift his head off the pillow. He awoke facedown, his skull feeling like a useless dead weight. Day by day, his condition had been worsening. His sleepless nights were spent shaking with anxiety; his days were characterized by heavy drinking and self-sedation with marijuana. For the first time in his life, he felt utterly worthless. Everything he had been since the age of 15 had been wrapped up in the band. Now, he was 27, and even though he couldn’t tell the world, that period of his life was almost certainly over." -- Man on the Run

“He'd fallen in love, and none of us was stupid enough to say, 'Oh, you shouldn't love her.' We could recognize that, but that didn't diminish the hurt we were feeling by being pushed aside.” -- Paul in Anthology

"Buy, buy"

Says the sign in the shop window

"Why, why?"

Says the junk in the yard

[undying-love]

"The cool waters also tempted John and Paul to take a dip in the river. A few times they quietly slipped off their clothes and waded in completely naked."

I honestly find it hilarious how Ringo brought a whole suitcase of beans because of his allergies. Also, can we talk about how gorgeous Pattie, Cyn, Mo, and Jane are in these???
