I wrote yesterday that the future is never as bad as we fear and that the past is never as good as we remember. Well. there are exceptions, of course. The Beatles, for instance, fall into the as good as we remember category. Actually, I sometimes think they were better than our memories will allow us to believe.
However, their cartoon show was every bit as bad as I remember. Bad animation and amateurish writing to get to the featured song in each cartoon made these hard to watch. But the strength of the Beatles’ music kept this show on the air for four years.
We’re on our way to Alexandria for tomorrow night’s opening for my show at the Principle Gallery and I thought this cartoon choice would be a good one for a little travelling music. I get to feel a bit like Ed Sullivan here. So without further ado: Ladies and gentleman– the Beatles!
